Installing an optional module in the device
FIGURE 23 Installing an optional module
Follow the steps below to install an optional module into the device.
1. Remove the two mounting screws on the blank metal plate (or a previously installed module)
with a flat-head screwdriver. Remove the old module, or blank plate.
2. Before opening the package that contains the new module, touch the bag to the device casing
to discharge any potential static electricity. Brocade recommends using an ESD wrist strap
during installation.
3. Remove the module from the anti-static shielded bag.
4. Holding the module level, guide it into the carrier rails on each side and push it into the slot,
until it firmly engages with the connector.
5. When the module has properly engaged the connector, tighten the retainer screws to secure
the module in the slot.
6. When the device is powered on, the module LED on the device front panel should turn green to
confirm that the module is correctly installed and ready to use.
CAUTION
If you do not install a module in a slot, you must keep the slot panel in place. If you run the device
with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
