Ensure that the GPIM is installed in the appropriate GPIM slot. For information about the appropriate
GPIM slots, see
"SRX Series Services Gateway Gigabit-Backplane Physical Interface Modules Overview"
on page
7.
NOTE:
To maintain proper airflow through the services gateway, leave blank faceplates in place
over slots that do not contain GPIMs. Do not remove a blank faceplate unless you are immediately
installing a GPIM in the empty slot. For more information about removing a blank faceplate, see
"Removing a Blank Gigabit-Backplane Physical Interface Module Faceplate from the SRX Series
Services Gateway" on page
NOTE:
Installing a GPIM on the SRX550 Services Gateway is similar to installing a GPIM on the
SRX650 Services Gateway.
To install a GPIM:
1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to
one of the ESD points on the chassis. For more information about ESD, see
Discharge Damage to the SRX Series Services Gateway" on page
2. Grasp the handles on each side of the GPIM faceplate, and align the edges of the GPIM circuit board
with the guide rails at each side of the GPIM slot.
NOTE:
If you are installing a double-high, double-wide GPIM such as the 24-Port Ethernet
XPIM, you must remove the center GPIM slot bracket.
3. Slide the GPIM into the services gateway until it seats firmly in the device. See
for information.
CAUTION:
