Adding a media module

Inserting media modules

Data modules

There is no configuration necessary when you add a data module. Configuration is only necessary when
you add telephones, WAN lines, and data devices to the new module. See
Adding a WAN link
CAUTION:
You can hot-insert data modules. This means you can add a data module to the Avaya
G350 Media Gateway while the system is running, but the G350 resets when you add the
module. However, hot insertion is not recommended in most cases. Because hot insertion
resets the G350, any translation and other data that is in the running configuration but has
not been saved to the startup configuration will be lost.
The G350 supports the following Avaya data media modules:

Inserting media modules
The following instructions explain how to insert media modules other than the S8300 Media Server.
Make sure to insert media modules in a permissible slot for the type of module you are installing. For
information about which slots to allocate to which modules, see
Some media modules might require additional components. For example, the MM314 media modules
requires a Gigabit Interface Connector (GBIC) to connect to the Gigabit Ethernet port.
CAUTION:
Hold media modules only by the edges to avoid damage from static electricity. Do not
touch the top or bottom of the circuit board. If possible, wear a wrist-strap and use an
anti-static bag.
CAUTION:
The connector pins can be bent or damaged if the module is handled roughly, or if
misaligned and then forced into position.
