SERVICING


The 9000 Series is a modular based Gigabit Ethernet Switch with up to 4 slots for ports and one slot for the CPU module. Please
follow the steps below for adding, removing, or swapping modules in the 9000 series switch. Technicians performing the
following steps should wear proper anti-static equipment to protect the circuit boards. WARNING: The 9000 series switch is
NOT hot swappable. Removing or adding modules while the power is still on can damage the equipment.


Adding or Replacing a Module:

1.

Remove power from the switch.

2.

Unscrew the two thumb screws for the filler panel or module that you are replacing.

3.

Using both hands pull on both thumb screws to slide the filler panel or module you are replacing off the 9000BP.

4.

Align the new module such that it slides on the rails and firmly push it into the unit.

5.

Screw both thumb screws down till they are finger tight.

6.

Reapply the power and configure the slots on the 9000 either through the web management interface or the serial
management interface.

NOTE: Modules should be installed in slot order (from left to right). So in a 2 slot configuration Slots A and B are populated.

Empty slots must be covered with a 9000-FP to meet emission standards.


Replacing a CPU Module:

1.

Remove power from the switch.

2.

Unscrew the two thumb screws for the CPU module that you are replacing.

NOTE: All configuration settings are saved to the NVRAM which is stored locally on the CPU Module. If you replace the CPU

Module all settings will move with the CPU Module. You can save and download a custom configuration to a TFTP or an
FTP server. The switch’s MAC Address and IP Address will also move with the CPU Module.
