Replacing or Removing the Module

Follow these procedures to replace the Gigabit Stacking Module with another,

or to remove the module without replacing it:

1. Remove any network cables from the ports on the module.

2. On the module you want to remove from the switch, unscrew the retaining

screws enough to disconnect them from the threaded holes in the switch.

3. Rotate the lever handle fully open to disconnect the module from the

switch connectors. Then slide the module out from the slot.

4. Do one of the following:

• If you will be installing another module in the slot, go to "Install

Transceivers Into the Module" on page 5.

• If you will not install another module in the slot (that is, leave it empty),

then install a slot cover plate over the empty slot opening.

For proper cooling and reduction of electromagnetic emissions, ensure that

a slot cover is installed on any unused transceiver or module slot.

5. If you are replacing the module with a module of a different type (for

example, replacing a Gigabit-LX Module with a Gigabit Stacking Module),

then reset the switch, as described under "Reset the Switch" on page 10.

If you are replacing the module with another one of the same type, it is not

necessary to reset the switch. The current configuration for ports in that

slot will apply to the new module.
