REPLACING OR INSTALLING CARDS
The MX2800 STS-1 is designed with hot-swappable controller cards and power supplies. To replace or
install a controller card or power supply, the front cover must be removed.
Cover Removal
Remove the front cover of the MX2800 STS-1 with a phillips-head screwdriver. With the cover removed,
the power supply and controller card slots will be visible.
Module Replacement
The two power supplies are located at the left of the chassis
The controller cards are stacked on the right side of the chassis.
To remove a card, pull the locking lever for the desired card to separate the backplane connector from the
backplane. Once, the backplane connector has disconnected, carefully pull the card straight out of the
chassis.
To replace or install a card, simply line up the card with the guide grooves. Carefully insert the card into
the chassis until the backplane connector reaches the backplane.
Finally, use the locking levers to seat the card firmly into the backplane connector slot on the chassis.
Once all cards have been replaced or installed, replace the front cover of the MX2800 STS-1.
