Note: The DFE-Platinum 2G4082-25 module can be installed in the single-slot of the Matrix N1
chassis, or in any slot of the Matrix E7, Matrix N7, Matrix N5, or Matrix N3, but does not have FTM
connectivity.
When installed in the Matrix E7, Matrix N7, Matrix N5, or Matrix N3, the 2G4082-25 will boot as a
standalone device with no connectivity to other modules in the chassis.
Caution: To prevent damaging the backplane connectors in the following step, take care that the
module slides in straight and properly engages the backplane connectors.
Ensure that the top lever lines up with the desired slot number located on the front panel of the
chassis. Refer to Figure 3-1.
Precaución: Para evitar que se dañen los conectores del panel posterior en el siguiente paso,
intente deslizar el módulo en forma recta y verifique que se enganche correctamente en los
conectores de panel posterior.
Asegúrese de que la palanca superior esté alineada con respecto al número de ranura
correspondiente ubicado en el panel frontal del chasis. Consulte en Figure 3-1.
Caution: Due to the amount of force needed to properly seat the module connectors into the
backplane connectors, it is best to apply force to the end of the levers to insert (or eject) the module.
Otherwise, damage could result to the module and chassis.
Precaución: Para colocar los conectores del módulo en los conectores del panel posterior
correctamente es necesario hacer bastante fuerza, por ello, para insertar o quitar el módulo, se
recomienda concentrar la fuerza en el extremo de las palancas. Si no lo hace, podría dañar el
módulo y el chasis.
