Installing/Removing Switch Controllers/Elements

The following sections explain how to install switch controllers and
elements.

Installing Redundant Controllers/Elements

By default, the switch is configured without the redundant
controller or element.

CAUTION

Before replacing switch controllers or elements, turn off the
Cajun P880 Switch.

To install the redundant modules and enable module redundancy:

1. Turn power off and unplug the Cajun P880 Switch.

2. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, loosen the captive screws on

the rear panel.

3. Carefully pull the rear panel away from the chassis.

4. Carefully remove the Switch Element or Switch Controller card

from the shipping box.

5. In order to take appropriate antistatic precautions, plug your

ESD strap/device into the jack (this takes a standard banana
jack) on the chassis (Figure 12), and carefully remove the card
from the antistatic wrap.

* Note: The ESD jack is only available when the rear

panel has been removed.
