Inserting a media card into the SP Switch Router
ESD requirements
! Caution: Media cards are hot swappable and can be installed when the SP Switch Router is
running. However, media cards are highly susceptible to damage from electrostatic discharge.
You must wear a grounded, conductive wrist strap any time you handle a media card. Make
sure the metallic elements in the band directly touch your exposed skin.
Card insertion procedure
1 When you are properly grounded, remove the media card from its anti-static container.
2 Hold the media card with the network ports facing you.
4-card router
Turn the card horizontal, the top of the media card should be on the left, the bottom of the
card should be on the right. As you start, make sure you visually identify the left and right
guide pair for this particular slot.
Keeping the media card horizontally level, insert the card fully into the slot, you will feel
the card joining with the 100-pin connector on the backplane.
16-card router
Hold the card vertically. As you start, make sure you visually identify the top and bottom
guide pair for this particular slot. Have one hand under the card, lightly supporting its
weight. Rest just the edge of the bottom corner of the card in the bottom guide. Then,
bring the top edge of the card into the top guide. This will help you keep the card level as
you slide it in.
Keeping the media card vertically upright, insert the card fully into the slot.
You will feel the card joining with the 100-pin connector on the backplane.
3 When fully inserted, the card’s face plate should be flush against the chassis back panel.
Note: Do not force the card into the slot. Doing so can damage the card or slot connector.
4 Tighten the screws at each end of the face plate.
