Removing a Blank Mini-Physical Interface Module Faceplate from the SRX Series Services

Gateway

To maintain proper airflow through the services gateway, a blank faceplate should cover

any empty Mini-Physical Interface Module (Mini-PIM) slot.

CAUTION: Do not remove a blank faceplate unless you are installing a

Mini-PIM in the empty slot.

CAUTION: The Mini-PIMs available on the SRX Series Services Gateway are

not hot-swappable. You must power off the device before removing or

installing Mini-PIMs.

To remove a blank faceplate from the SRX Series Services Gateway:

1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect

the strap to the ESD point on the device.

2. If the device is powered on, power off the device. Verify that the Power LED is off.

3. Loosen the screws on each side of the faceplate.

•

On faceplates with handles, use a 1/8-in. (3-mm) flat-blade (–) screwdriver to

loosen but not remove the captive screws.

•

On faceplates without handles, use a number 1 Phillips screwdriver to remove the

noncaptive screws.

4. Remove the faceplate. See Figure 6 on page 18.
