3.3 INSTALLING THE MODULE INTO THE 6C105 CHASSIS
The SmartSwitch modules can be installed in any of the 5 slots that are available. To install a
module, refer to
Figure 3-1 and proceed as follows:
1. Remove the blank panel covering the slot in which the module will be installed. All other slots
must remain covered to ensure proper airflow and cooling. (Save the blank plate in the event
you need to remove the module.)
2. Carefully remove the module from the shipping box. (Save the box and packing materials in the
event the module must be reshipped.)
3. Locate the antistatic wrist strap shipped with the 6C105 chassis. Attach the antistatic wrist strap
to your wrist and plug the cable from the antistatic wrist strap into the ESD grounding
receptacle at the upper right corner of the 6C105.
4. Remove the module from the plastic bag. (Save the bag in the event the module must be
reshipped.) Observe all precautions to prevent damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
!
CAUTION
Failure to observe static safety precautions could cause damage to the SmartSwitches.
Follow static safety handling rules and wear the antistatic wrist strap provided with the
6C105 chassis.
Do not cut the non-conductive bag to remove the module. Damage could result from
sharp objects contacting the board or components.
