Installing the DFE Module into a Chassis
3-6 Installation
Preparation
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 for cooling. (Save the blank
plate in the event you need to remove the module.)
2. Remove the module from the shipping box. (Save the box and packing materials in
the event the module needs to be reshipped.)
3. Locate the antistatic wrist strap shipped with the 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 chassis.
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).
5. Examine the module for damage. If any damage exists, DO NOT install the module.
Immediately contact Enterasys Networks. Refer to “

Installing Module into Matrix E7 or N7 Chassis
To install the module, refer to Figure 3‐2 and proceed as follows:
1. Locate the chassis card guides that line up with the slot number in which the module
will be installed. (In this example, slot 1 is being used.) Make sure the module locking
levers are in the open position (top and bottom).
2. Align the module card between the upper and lower card guides of the desired slot
and slide it into the chassis, taking care that the module slides in straight. See Caution
below.
Caution: To prevent damaging the backplane connectors in the following step, take care
that the module slides in straight and properly engages the backplane connectors.
Ensure that the top lever lines up with the desired slot number located on the front panel of
the chassis. Refer to
Figure 3-2 .
Precaución: Para evitar que se dañen los conectores del panel posterior en el siguiente
paso, intente deslizar el módulo en forma recta y verifique que se enganche
correctamente en los conectores de panel posterior.
Asegúrese de que la palanca superior esté alineada con respecto al número de ranura
correspondiente ubicado en el panel frontal del chasis. Consulte en
Figure 3-2 .
Caution: Due to the amount of force needed to properly seat the module connectors into
the backplane connectors, it is best to apply force to the end of the levers to insert (or
eject) the module. Otherwise, damage could result to the module and chassis.
Precaución: Para colocar los conectores del módulo en los conectores del panel
posterior correctamente es necesario hacer bastante fuerza, por ello, para insertar o quitar
el módulo, se recomienda concentrar la fuerza en el extremo de las palancas. Si no lo
hace, podría dañar el módulo y el chasis.
