3.6 6K8-Series Port Module (6KPMV) Installation
Note: The modules used in the 6K8-Series vertical mount unit are similar to
those used in 6K16V units. The modules have the letter “V” in the model numbers, to
order the right module for this unit. In the Port Module materials below, all modules are
referred to as “6KPMV” for convenience in describing port module installation.
Magnum 6K8-Series Switches are normally received from the factory with all
required 6KPMV modules installed. There may be situations where 6KPMV cards need
to be added or replaced. In cases where additional 6KPMV cards are needed, the
faceplate for an available front-mounted slot must be removed. The following procedure
describes this operation. The pictorial view of the hardware assembly can be seen here-

3.6.1 Preparation for Installing and Removing 6KPMVs from 6K8’s
STOP!!!
Be sure the power cord is unplugged
from the chassis before attempting to remove
and/or replace any PM cards.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit
and will void the warranty.
Caution- Opening of the 6K8 chassis can only be performed by trained service
persons. Avoid Static Discharge: The port modules (like most electronic equipment)
are sensitive to static discharge. Use proper ESD measures when handling port
modules.
Step 1. Make sure the 6KPMV Card package has all necessary accessories and use the
proper tool to install it properly. Each 6KPMV Card package, for field
installation contains (Daughterboard (Bigger) and Granddaughter board
(smaller), three 5/8 stand offs for Granddaughter board, 6 standoff for daughter
Board, nine #4-40x3/8 Pan-Head screws along with Front panel face plate
package.
NOTE: Every 6KPMV Card package comes with their matching Daughter and
Granddaughter board. The copper 6KPMV card should not work properly if mixed
with other Fiber combo 6KPMV card packages. Always install the PM module
separately one by one to avoid the mixing.
Do not change the Blue color DIP Switch setting ever! Leave it at factory default.
