Installation
In this chapter, installing and powering the 2461 modem is discussed.
2.1 Unpacking and Installing the Rack Mount Modem
Each 2461 modem is factory tested and shipped in protective cartons. After unpacking the unit
and accessories, retain the shipping carton and protective packing in the event a need arises for
returning it to the factory.
To install the 2461 modem, do the following:
1. If the Universal Chassis System Chassis Model 1000 has not yet been installed, do so now.
Also install the optional CIM and DMM modules. The 2461 modem can be installed at any
time into an operating chassis.
2. The modem consists of the main module, as well as ELIMs and OLIMs, which may have
been shipped already inserted into the main module. The modem can be inserted into any
numbered available slot in the UCS 1000 chassis. The slots are numbered on the Chassis
metal strips near where the screws are inserted.
Note: If a redundant application will be used, the primary modem must be inserted
into an odd numbered slot (slots are numbered on the chassis metal strip near where
the modem's screws are inserted.). The secondary modem must be inserted into the
first even numbered slot to the right (For example: 1,2, or 7,8).

3. When inserted correctly into position, you will feel and hear the modem connect firmly with
the backplane. It should fit snugly, and will not need to be forced.
4. Hand-tighten the knurled knobs, which will fasten the modem firmly into place. No
screwdriver is necessary.
5. Additional modems can be inserted into the chassis at any time, and will be detected by the
Universal Chassis System without rebooting the UCS. The modem receives power from the
backplane.
