Installing the Media Converter Line Cards

This section contains general instructions on how to install the media
converter line cards. For specific instructions, refer to the Installation
Guides that come with the cards.

To install a Converteon line card, perform the following procedure:

1. Remove the Converteon line card from its shipping package and store

the package in a safe place.

Note

You must use the original package if you need to return the unit to
Allied Telesis.

2. Remove the slot cover from an empty slot in the chassis by loosening

the captive screw. The media converter line cards can be installed in
any of the slots and in any order. Allied Telesis recommends installing
the first line card in slot 1 because that slot does not have a cover. If
you are installing the double-slot AT-CM70S Line Card, you must
remove two adjacent slot covers.

Warning: Remove all metal jewelry, such as rings and watches,
before installing or removing a line card from a powered-on
chassis.

Caution Be sure to observe all standard electrostatic discharge
(ESD) precautions, such as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to
avoid damaging the device. A line card can be damaged by
static electricity.
