Replacing a card

WARNING!

Before you install the removed card again, make sure the status LED on it is off.

Install a blank filler panel in the slot where no card is to be installed.

The cards on the S10500 switches can be installed in horizontal or vertical slots, and the replacement

procedures are the same. The following takes a card installed in a horizontal slot as an example.
To replace a card:

Prepare an antistatic mat to place the removed card.

Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For
more information, see "

3.

If the card is an MPU or LPU, remove all its cables.

Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the captive screw on the card, as shown by callout 1 in
