Installing The Dfe Module Into A Chassis; Preparation - Enterasys Gold Distributed Forwarding Engine 4G4282-49 Hardware Installation Manual

Installing the DFE Module into a Chassis

To install a DFE‐Gold module into a chassis, proceed directly to "Preparation" on
page 3‐11 to start the installation process.

Preparation

1. Remove the blank panel covering the slot in which the module will be installed. All
other slots must remain covered to ensure proper airflow for cooling. (Save the blank
plate in the event you need to remove the module.)
2. Remove the module from the shipping box. (Save the box and packing materials in
the event the module needs to be reshipped.)
3. Locate the antistatic wrist strap shipped with the chassis. Attach the antistatic wrist
strap to your wrist and plug the cable from the antistatic wrist strap into the ESD
grounding receptacle at the upper right corner of the chassis.
4. Remove the module from the plastic bag. (Save the bag in the event the module must
be reshipped.) Observe all precautions to prevent damage from Electrostatic
Discharge (ESD).
5. Examine the module for damage. If any damage exists, DO NOT install the module.
Immediately contact Enterasys Networks. Refer to "Getting Help" on page 1‐8.
Caution: Failure to observe static safety precautions could cause damage to the
DFE module. Follow static safety handling rules and wear the antistatic wrist strap.
Do not cut the non-conductive bag to remove the module. Sharp objects contacting the
board or components can cause damage.
Precaución: Si no toma las medidas de seguridad necesarias para evitar descargas de
electricidad estática, es posible que el módulo se dañe. Siga los consejos de seguridad
para la manipulación del producto y no olvide utilizar la pulsera antiestática.
No corte la bolsa antiestática para sacar el módulo. Tenga en cuenta que si algún objeto
cortante entra en contacto con la placa o con los componentes, éstos podrían dañarse.
