8. Secure the line card
Move the ejector levers to the locked position and tighten the line card’s
two Phillips screws (see Figure 2 on page -6).
If the chassis is receiving power, one or more L/A LEDs will light amber
when the line card is correctly installed. The LED(s) will remain lit until the
card is configured.
9. For GBIC line cards, install the GBICs
Slide the GBICs into the card’s GBIC slots. Press each GBIC firmly into
place.
A range of GBICs have been tested and approved for use with the SwitchBlade, contact
your authorised Allied Telesyn distributor or reseller for more information, or visit
www.alliedtelesyn.co.nz.
