If the slot from which you removed the module is to remain empty, install a module filler plate to keep

Step 6

dust out of the chassis and to maintain proper airflow through the chassis.

Blank faceplates (filler panels) serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous

voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might

disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate

the system unless all cards and faceplates are in place.

Installing a Module

This section describes how to install a supervisor engine or module in the Catalyst 6500 series switches.

To prevent ESD damage, handle modules by the carrier edges only.

Caution

During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do not directly

Caution

touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.

Warning

Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into

beams or view directly with optical instruments.

To install a supervisor engine or module in the chassis, perform these steps:

Choose a slot for the supervisor engine or module.

Step 1

Verify that there is enough clearance to accommodate any interface equipment that you will connect

Step 2

directly to the supervisor engine or module ports. If possible, place modules between empty slots that

contain only module filler plates.

Verify that the captive installation screws are tightened on all modules installed in the chassis.

Step 3

This action ensures that the EMI gaskets on all modules are fully compressed in order to maximize the

opening space for the replacement module.

Note

Remove the module filler plate by removing the two Phillips pan-head screws from the filler plate. (To

Step 5

If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI gaskets on the installed modules will push

adjacent modules toward the open slot, reducing the opening size and making it difficult to

install the replacement module.
