Replacing an Installed Gigabit

Ethernet Module into the Switch

The pre-installed modular Gigabit Interface Converter (GBIC) lets you add
multimode and single mode fiber connections to the SW3324 switch. The GBIC
module is installed in the modular slot on the left side of the switch.

To install the GBIC module in the switch, perform these steps:

1. If necessary, remove the existing GBIC connector by gently squeezing

the sides to release it, and pull the GBIC out of the slot.

2. Holding the new or replacement GBIC by its sides, gently squeeze the

plastic pieces located on the front sides of the connector.

3. Insert the GBIC module into the modular slot with the orientation

arrows facing upward.

4. Slide the GBIC back into the slot until you hear it click.

NOTE: GBIC modules are hot plug compliant.
