60 CHAPTER 7: SWITCH FABRIC M ANAGEMENT MODULES AND I NTERFACE M ODULESModule InstallationProcedureIf the chassis is powered on when you install a module, power is applied to themodule as soon as its rear connector makes contact with the connector that isinside the slot.To install a Switch Fabric Management Module or interface module, follow thesesteps:1 Before you start the installation process, read all the safety and handlingprecautions, and installation prerequisites that are noted earlier in this chapter.2 Select a slot for the module, following the guidelines in “Slot Restrictions” onpage 58.3 If you are installing a module in a previously unused slot, remove the blankfaceplate.Save this faceplate in case you need it in the future. Empty slots must be coveredto ensure proper airflow and cooling in the chassis.If you are installing multiple modules, 3Com recommends that you remove onlyone faceplate at a time so that there are either modules or blank faceplatesadjacent to the slot that you have selected. Having these items on either side helpsyou to install a module correctly.WARNING: To ensure adequate cooling air flow and continued product safetyagency compliance, install blank faceplates over all empty slots.4 Remove the module from its antistatic bag and open the two module ejectorhandles so that they are nearly perpendicular to the front panel.5 Hold the module vertically with the LEDs at the top and begin to insert the moduleinto the guides on the top and the bottom of the slot. Figure 21 on page 61shows the module position in the chassis.CAUTION: Do not twist or bend the module when you insert it into the chassis.6 Slide the module into the chassis by pushing firmly on the two ends of the frontpanel near the ejector handles.WARNING: Hazardous energy exists inside the chassis. Do not place hands orobjects into the chassis or touch components on an inserted module.
