Installing/Removing Line Modules

Upon installing a new line module in the device, all features associated with the
module are available in RUGGEDCOM RX1536. For more information, refer to the
"RUGGEDCOM ROX II Configuration Manual" for the RUGGEDCOM RX1536.
Once a line module is removed, all the features associated with the module are
hidden or disabled in RUGGEDCOM RX1536.
Electrical hazard – risk of power failure
When installing more than one line module in the device, make sure the total power
consumption of all line modules does not exceed 41.5 W (i.e. the total power made
available to the modules by the chassis). If the total power consumption exceeds
this value, power fluctuations and irregular shut downs may occur.
For the maximum power consumption of each line module, refer to "Available
Modules" (Page 28).
Contamination hazard – risk of equipment damage
Prevent the ingress of water, dirts and other debris that may lead to premature
equipment failure. Always make sure slots are not left empty and open ports are
protected with plugs or covers.
Note
Only one WAN line module is supported per chassis.
