Installing Optional Ports
CAUTION
Summit port option cards are not hot-swappable. Disconnect power to the switch before installing or
removing a Summit XGM, XGM2 series, or XGM3 option card. After the Summit port option card is installed in
a compatible switch, you can hot-swap pluggable optical modules. Use only optical modules approved by
Extreme Networks.

Installing XGM and XGM2 Series Port Option Cards

All Summit XGM and XGM2 series port option cards are installed the same way. The instructions in this
section apply to all option cards for the Summit X350, X450a, and X450e series switches.
To install a Summit XGM or XGM2 series port option card:
1 Disconnect the AC power and any redundant power supply from the Summit switch.
2 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your bare wrist and connect the metal end to an appropriate
ground point on the equipment rack.
3 Remove the screws holding the filler panel over the option slot on the back of the switch
(Figure 216). Remove the filler panel and set it aside.
Save the screws for re-use.
