7. Slide the interface module all the way into the slot.
FIGURE 50 Inserting an interface module
8. Close the ejectors by rotating them inward.
The levering action of the ejectors seats the interface module in the slot.
9. Tighten the captive screws using the #2 Phillips screwdriver.
NOTE
The interface module will not function unless the captive screws are tightened.
10. Install the transceivers and cables in the interface module.
11. Group and route the cables using a cable management comb.
Removing or replacing an interface module
This section describes the physical procedure for removing or replacing an interface module in chassis slots. It does not cover
management modules or switch fabric modules.
Complete the following steps to remove or replace an interface module.
Review Precautions
specic to the interface modules on page 95 before replacing an interface module.
1. Check for adequate cable slack. Ensure there is plenty of cable slack to remove an interface module without cable obstruction.
2. If you are replacing an interface module of the same type, ensure that the part number on the interface module being replaced
matches the replacement part number.
NOTE
Before removing any cables from an interface module, note the cable order (identify each cable by its physical port). It
is a good practice to keep a table of cable to port mapping.
