Installation

Installation

The front and the rear modules are delivered together as a set:
8949MDA-CFR front module or 8949MDA-SFR front module with the
8900WFR-R rear module. Optional fiber optic SFP devices must be ordered
separately. The types of optional fiber optic SFP devices available are listed
in

Table 2 on page 17

.

The 8949MDA-CFR and 8949MDA-SFR front modules can be plugged in
and removed from a GeckoFlex frame with power on. When power is
applied to the module, LED indicators reflect the initialization process (see

Power Up on page 22

).

CAUTION Use anti-static precautions when installing and removing the optional fiber

optic SFP devices, see

Optional Fiber Optic SFP Device Installation on

page 17

.

Module Placement in the GeckoFlex Frame

There

are ten rear and front slot locations in the 2 RU frame to accommodate

either audio or video modules (

Figure 1

). The module set may be plugged

into any one of the available GeckoFlex frame slots. The 8949MDA
modules require a single rear and corresponding front slot.

Note

Use anti-static precautions when handling the module. As the module can be
changed when the GeckoFlex is powered on, before removing the cover,
please put an anti-static bracelet tied to a metal part of the frame.
