Installing an Expansion Module

Caution

Before installing an expansion module, refer to Appendix C in the “AT-8000 Series Fast

Ethernet Switch Installation Guide” forelectrical safety and emission information.

This section describes how to install an optional expansion module. To install an expansion

module, follow these steps:

1. Unpack the module from its shipping container and store the packaging material in a

safe location.

Note

You must use the original shipping material if you need to return the module to Allied

Telesyn.

2. Check that the module package includes all the items listed in section Package

Contents. If any item is missing or damaged, contact your Allied Telesyn sales

representative for assistance.

3. Select a switch where you will install the expansion module.

4. Face the front panel of the switch and locate the expansion slots (left side of switch).

5. To remove an expansion slot faceplate, using a Phillips screwdriver, carefully loosen the

installation screws found on the left and right sides of the faceplate, as displayed below.

An expansion module can be installed in either expansion slot.

Caution

Be sure to observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions, such as

wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to avoid damaging the device. If removing an

expansion module, store the module in an antistatic bag or immediately install it in

another switch. An expansion module can be damaged by static electricity.

6. Remove the faceplate from the slot.

Keep the faceplate in a safe area in case you need to replace it on the slot again. The

faceplate will keep any dust from getting into the switch and will maintain proper air-

flow if the slot remains empty.
