1. Placing the 8900CF-R rear module in a rear frame slot,
2. Installing the fiber optic SFP devices on the front module,
3. Placing the front module in the corresponding front slot,
4. Cabling the signal ports, and
5. Setting module parameters with on-board switches or with the web
browser interface or the Newton Control Panel.
All GeckoFlex front and rear modules can be inserted and removed from
an GeckoFlex frame with power on.
Note Modules and SFP devices are sensitive to static damage, use standard
anti-static precautions when handling components.
