Module Installation
Fiber Driver modules are hot-swappable and may be inserted into or removed from a supporting
chassis at any time. Install the module into a powered Fiber Driver chassis with a cooling fan. Align
the edge of the card with the rail of the chassis, slide it into the chassis until firmly seated against
the backplane and hand-tighten the thumb screw.
The thumb screw of an installed module is toward the bottom of the BU-16 chassis and to the left
in the other chassis.
Tools
• Phillips screwdriver (for some module screws)
• Flat-tip
screwdriver
Procedure
Follow all guidelines to eliminate static electricity while handling the module and other electronic
devices. Refer to the front of this manual for some suggestions.
Step 1. If a blank panel is covering the target slot, remove it by unfastening the two screws with
a 6-inch Phillips screwdriver.
Figure 10 -- Remove the required blank panels
A cover panel or a module must securely cover each chassis slot to comply with FCC
regulations. Open chassis slots may emit disruptive signals during operation. Securing modules
and panels with appropriate screws is also important for grounding and safety.
