Kaleido-MX (1RU)
Hardware Description & Installation Manual
4 Slide the new card into the controller slot, and push gently on the card edge to engage
the rear connectors.
5 Be sure to close the front door before operating the Kaleido-MX, to ensure proper
ventilation (see Closing the front door , on page 9).
Replacing the GPI-1501 Card
In a Kaleido-MX (1RU), the GPI-1501 card is located on the upper right-hand side of the
frame, above the (optional) right-hand power supply.
To replace the GPI-1501 card
1 Open the front door of the frame (see Opening the front door , on page 8).
2 Tilt the swivel handle, on the front of the card, to lever the connectors apart, and then
use the handle to pull the card straight out of the slot.
3 Slide the new GPI-1501 card into the slot, with the swivel handle to the right, and push
gently on the handle to seat the connectors.
4 Close the front door of the frame (see Closing the front door , on page 9).
Replacing Power Supply Modules
The Kaleido-MX frames support dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies. The basic
configuration includes a single supply, with an empty slot for the optional redundant
power supply. Installing a second power supply module and applying power to it
automatically engages the redundant supply mode. Each power supply has its own power
socket on the rear panel, and should be connected to the AC supply using the power cord
that shipped with your hardware, or other approved cord.
To install or change a power supply module in a Kaleido-MX (1RU)
1 Open the front door of the frame (see Opening the front door , on page 8).
2 If you are removing the left-hand side power supply, you must first remove the
controller card. See Replacing the CPU-ETH2 Controller Card below.
3 Remove the power supply module by pulling on the handle on its front panel and
sliding it out of the frame.
4 Slide the new power supply module into the slot, and push it gently into position to
seat the connectors.
There is no guiding slot — the supply base sits on the floor of the frame.
5 If you removed the controller card in step 2 , reinstall it (see Replacing the CPU-ETH2
Controller Card ).
Notes
• A single power supply can be installed in either of the two slots. In the case
of a Kaleido-MX (1RU), you may prefer to install the power supply module
in the right-hand slot to avoid having to remove the controller card should
you need to replace the power supply.
• Power integrity is enhanced if the two power supplies are plugged into
different circuits.
