4. Installing Optional Modules
You can purchase optional modules separately to meet the
needs of your network.
Note
The XGS3-2SFP+ module is hot-swappable
during operation; there is no need to power off
the Switch before slide or remove the module.
Follow these steps to install the optional module into the
Switch:
1. Place the Switch on a flat surface. Grasp the thumbscrew
on the sides of the blank bracket and turn counter-
clockwise to unscrew them. You can also use a screw-
driver remove the blank bracket (See Figure 2). Do not
discard the blank bracket. Put the blank bracket back if
you remove the module out of the Switch.
