Installing an Optional Module into the Switch

Optional modules are available for media expansion, stacking and
management. These modules can be installed into the modular
slots on the rear panel of the switch. The Network Management
Module must be installed in the upper slot, and the Stack Module
in the lower-left slot. The media expansion modules can be
installed in either of the two lower slots.
Caution: DO NOT install slide-in modules with the switch
To install an optional module into the switch, do the following:
1. Disconnect power to the switch.
2. Remove the blank metal plate (or a previously installed
module) from the appropriate slot by removing the two screws
with a flat-head screwdriver. A media module can be installed
in either of the two lower slots on the rear panel of the switch.
A Network Management Module can be installed in the upper
slot on the rear of the switch.
3. Before opening the package that contains the module, touch
the bag to the switch casing to discharge any potential static
electricity. Also, use the ESD wrist strap included with the
package.
4. Remove the module from the anti-static shielded bag.
5. Holding the module level, guide it into the carrier rails on each
side and gently push it all the way into the slot, ensuring that it
firmly engages with the connector.
