The Uplink/Expansion Module slot on supported switches
accommodates a single MDA using the following connectors.
To install an MDA:
1 Unplug the AC power cord from the back of the switch, or
unplug the switch module from the switch backplane.
2 Loosen the thumb screws and remove the filler panel (or
previously installed MDA) from the Uplink/Expansion
Module slot.
3 Insert the MDA into the Uplink/Expansion Module card
guides (
Figure 10 ).
Make sure the MDA slides in on the card guides. Failure to
align the MDA to the card guides could damage the pins.
