Installing Dial Backup and Network Interface Modules

The DIM plugs on to the NIM. The NIM is then installed into the rear panel option module slot. The
following tables list the installation steps. Also see Figure 19 on page 47 and Figure 20 on page 48.
For NetVanta modules with outside plant connections, ensure that all cables are
removed from the module before installing or removing it from the NetVanta chassis.
Always remove power from the unit and all telecommunication connections prior to
removing or installing a module.
Improper installation may result in damage to the modules.
Step
1 Remove power from the unit.
2 If the NIM/VIM is already in the NetVanta chassis, remove all cables, release the pins at both
edges of the NIM front panel and slide the module out of the chassis.
3 Align the P1 connector on the NIM/VIM with the J1 connector on the DIM. Using only fingertip
pressure so that neither circuit board bends or flexes, ensure that the connectors are firmly seated.
Secure the DIM to the NIM/VIM using the screws and standoff posts supplied. See Figure 19.
4 Slide the NIM/VIM with the DIM attached into the NetVanta chassis, continuing with the normal
NIM installation (refer to Instructions for Installing the NIMs and VIMs on page 48).
