3.2 Installation

3.2.1

Shelf Installation

All channel modules, common modules, module adapters, and power supplies plug into the main
equipment shelf (Figure 3-1). As a standard practice, a NetXpress LX shelf ships pre-configured with
the CM-30 module, channel modules, module adapters, and power supplies installed. All modules and
module adapters can remain in place while you install each shelf into its designated equipment rack.
Figure 3-1. NetXpress LX 1RU and 3RU Multiplexers
Consider these points for equipment shelf installation:
● If applicable, bolt the shelf into the designated equipment rack. If shelves are to be stacked in a
rack, allow at least 1RU space between shelves to avoid possible heat problems.
● Make sure all modules, module adapters, and module interface units are properly seated.
Note: If the shelf is AC powered, make sure the power cable can be accessed easily for maintenance
purposes.
3.2.2 CM-30 Module Kit Installation
If you purchased a CM-30 module kit, which includes the CM-30 interface module and an MA-230
module adapter, use these steps and guidelines to install the module and module adapter in your
Intraplex multiplexer.
3.2.2.1 CM-30 Module and Indicator Lights
The CM-30 IP interface module is pre-installed into the NetXpress LX multiplexer at the factory.
However, you may need to replace the module at some point. Insert the CM-30 module (Figure 3-2)
into the same slot number as the MA-230 module adapter in the NetXpress LX-100 (1RU) chassis
NetXpress LX-300 (3RU) chassis.
