Installing an Expansion Module
Caution
Before installing an expansion module, refer to Appendix C in the “AT-8000 Series Fast
Ethernet Switch Installation Guide” for electrical 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.
