Handling the Module

The module can be easily damaged by electrostatic
discharge. To prevent damage, observe the following:

T

Do not remove the module from its packaging until
you are ready to install it into a Switch.

T

Do not touch any of the pins, connections or
components on the module.

T

Handle the module only by its edges and front panel.

T

Always wear an anti-static wristband connected to a
suitable earth point.

T

Always store or transport modules in anti-static
packaging.

Installing the Module into a Switch

CAUTION: When a module is installed into a Switch, the
Switch can only support one port trunk, instead of two.
If you have two port trunks configured on your Switch,
remove the second one before installing the module. If
you do not remove the second port trunk, both port
trunks are automatically removed.

CAUTION: If the module replaces a 1000BASE-SX or a
1000BASE-LX module, all user settings are retained, with
the exception of auto-negotiation, which is always
enabled. If the 1000BASE-T module replaces any other
type of module, all user settings return to their default
values.

1 Ensure that the Switch is disconnected from the mains

power supply and that you are wearing an anti-static
wristband connected to a suitable earth point.

2 Place the Switch on a flat surface. Using a suitable

screwdriver, remove the blanking plate from the rear of
the Switch. Do not remove any other screws from the
rear of the Switch.

3 Keep the blanking plate and screws in a safe place. If

you remove the module at any time, you must replace
the blanking plate to prevent dust and debris entering
the Switch and to aid the circulation of cooling air.

4 Hold the module so that the text on the front panel is

upright, and insert it into the Switch, ensuring the
connectors are fully engaged. Tighten the two captive
thumbscrews securing the module.

5 Install the module:

a Ensure that the Switch is turned on.

b Plug the RJ-45 connector on the cable into the RJ-45

socket on the module.

c Connect the other end of the cable segment to a

device fitted with a 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet
connection.

6 Check the LEDs on the front of the Switch to ensure

that the module is operating correctly. Refer to “LEDs”
on page 1 for more information.

Removing the Module from a Switch

1 Ensure that the power supply and connection cables are

disconnected from the Switch.

2 Place the Switch on a flat surface. Undo the two captive

thumbscrews securing the module into the Switch. Do
not remove any other screws from the Switch.

3 If you are not fitting another module immediately, you

must replace the blanking plate to ensure that dust and
debris do not enter the Switch and to aid the circulation
of cooling air.
