Catalyst Matrix Module Installation
A Catalyst Matrix module can be installed in either the left side, right side, or in both positions of the
Catalyst Matrix chassis. If a module fails, it can be replaced easily. The only tool needed is a #2 bit
Phillips screwdriver. The following procedure describes how to add or replace a Catalyst Matrix
module.
Note
applied and when it is on-line to the system. However, if possible, try to avoid swapping an on-line
module during heavy traffic. The switching time from an on-line module to an off-line module is
short; however, during extremely heavy traffic it could cause an interruption of data. When it is
necessary to remove an on-line module, if possible, switch it off line when there is little or no traffic.
Disconnect power from the module before removing it from the chassis.

    Installing Catalyst Switch Front Expansion Modules 100BaseTX Expansion Module Cables The 100BaseTX module’s network port is an RJ-45 connector that uses 100BaseTX cable. 100BaseTX and 10BaseT cable have the same connectors and cable pinouts, but using one in Note place of the other may cause system performance problems. 10BaseT is a Category 3 cable, and 100BaseTX is a Category 5 cable (physically, Category 5 cable is usually a little heavier or stiffer than category 3 cable).
