Installing and Removing AMC-Based Modules on the Rear Panel

The OSN3 modules are hot-swappable and can be installed and removed without
disrupting other non-related OSN3 services running on the device. If two HDMX modules
are used and you need to replace or remove one, you can also do this without affecting
OSN3 functionality. Therefore, you can replace or remove faulty modules without taking the
entire device out of service (i.e., powering down the device).
The AMC modules provide a handle that allows you to easily install or remove them, as
described in the subsequent subsections.

Installing an AMC Module

The procedure below describes how to install an AMC module into the chassis slot.
To install an AMC module:
1. Remove the new AMC module from its ESD shielding packet in which it was shipped.
2. If the gold fingers of the module have Kapton tape covering, remove the tape.
3. Carefully insert the module into the slot and slide it along the slot's guide rails until it
makes contact with the AMC card-edge connector located on the backplane.
4. Using only the AMC module handle, press the AMC module into the chassis. This
engages the module with the chassis backplane.
5. Connect all external interfacing cables to the module, as required.
