Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage hardware. Follow the procedures in this section to protect your equipment from damage. To prevent static discharge damage when you work with Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series modules, place each module on a grounded antistatic mat until you are ready to install it, or leave the module in the sealed ESD bag.
Module installation and connection Removing a filler panel Before you can install a new module, you must remove the appropriate filler panel. Avaya ships the Ethernet Routing Switch 8310 and 8306 chassis with a filler panel covering each empty module slot. Caution: For proper chassis cooling, a filler panel must cover each empty module slot.
Page 57
Caution: Do not operate the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series chassis with an empty module slot. If you must replace a failed module and you do not yet have a replacement module, leave the failed module installed or install a filler panel to maintain proper chassis cooling.
Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series Modules components. Important: You can install an Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series module with the power on or off. If you install a module in the same chassis and slot where the same type of module was previously installed, the previous configuration is maintained for the new module in that slot.

Connecting a PC or terminal to the SF/CPU You must remove the card from the SF/CPU module before changing the read- write protection. Failure to remove the card can result in improper write protection. 2. Adjust the read-write protect switch. 3.
The Ethernet Routing Switch 8310 and 8306 chassis ships with cable management brackets. Use the cable management brackets to keep groups of cable clusters fastened and out of the way, but accessible for maintenance. If you do not install these brackets, see Avaya Installation — Chassis, NN46200-309.
