Important Points to Remember for Installing a Unified
Port Module
You must insert the Unified Port module only in slot 0.
Installing and swapping of Unified Port modules must be done BEFORE power up. If you need to
install or replace a module, power down the system before you install or replace it. If you install or
replace a module when the system is powered up, the system does not recognize the module. Online
insertion of modules can result in a catastrophic failure.
The S5000 does not support the hot swapping of a Unified Port pluggable module during switch
operations. Instead, you must power down the switch before removing and replacing a Unified Port
module.
WARNING: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if components are mishandled.
Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S5000 and its
components.
