Installing an MX480 PIC
To install a PIC (see
):
1.
Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect
the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
2.
If the PIC uses fiber-optic cable, verify that a rubber safety cap is over each transceiver
on the faceplate. Install a cap if necessary.
3.
Align the notches in the connector at the rear of the PIC with the notches in the PIC
slot in the FPC and then slide the PIC in until it lodges firmly in the FPC.
CAUTION:
Slide the PIC straight into the slot to avoid damaging the
components on the bottom of the PIC.
4.
For an FPC3 PIC, turn the ejector handle at the top of the PIC faceplate clockwise,
then tighten the captive screw at the bottom of the faceplate to secure the PIC in the
FPC.
5.
If the PIC uses fiber-optic cable, remove the rubber safety cap from each transceiver
and the end of each cable.
WARNING:
Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the
ends of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cable
connected to a transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
