Firebox T85-PoE Hardware Guide

Install an Interface Module

Interface Modules are not hot-swappable. To avoid damage to the system, you must
disconnect the Firebox from the power source before you install or remove an
interface module.
To install an interface module:
1. Power off the Firebox, and disconnect the power cable.
2. Loosen the two captive screws on the expansion bay cover of the Firebox and remove the cover.
The expansion bay contains guideposts on both sides to help you align the module.
3. Align the metal plate on the bottom of the interface module between the guideposts on both sides.
4. Insert the interface module into the expansion bay, and push the module firmly into place.
5. Tighten the two captive screws on the interface module.
6. Reconnect the power cable to the Firebox.
7. Power on the Firebox.
When the Firebox starts, Fireware automatically detects all installed interfaces.

Remove an Interface Module

Before you remove an installed interface module, make sure that the interfaces on
that module are not enabled in the Firebox configuration. You cannot manage a
Firebox if an enabled interface has been removed.
To remove an installed interface module:
1. Power off the Firebox, and disconnect the power cable.
2. Loosen the two screws on the installed interface module.
3. Slide the interface module out of the expansion bay.
4. Put the removed interface module on an antistatic surface.
5. Install the expansion bay cover and tighten the two captive screws.
