Removing A Module - Nortel 8600 Series Installing

To prevent static discharge damage when you work with Ethernet Routing
Switch 8600, place each module on a grounded antistatic mat until you are
ready to install it. If you do not have an antistatic mat, wear a discharge
leash or wrist strap to free yourself of static before you touch a module.
(An antistatic wrist strap is shipped with the 8010co Chassis.) You can
also free yourself of static by touching the metal chassis before you handle
the module.
You can add or replace a module with the power on or off.
To replace a module, see the next section,
To install a module, see

Removing a module

You can remove any Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 module from an

WARNING
Fiber optic equipment can emit laser or infrared light that can
injure your eyes. Never look into an optical fiber or connector port.
Always assume that fiber optic cables are connected to a light
source.
CAUTION
Before you remove a 8691SF or 8692SF module, back up your
configuration. If the chassis has only one 8691SF or 8692SF
module and you remove that module, the switch does not operate.
