▌Installing and removing the card
CAUTION: · Before you install or remove the card, wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure the strap makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. · To avoid device damage, do not use excessive force when you install or remove the card. · The LSWM18CQ interface card is hot swappable. However, do not install or remove it during the startup of the switch. |
Installing the card
1. Remove the filler panel (if any) from the target slot.
Keep the removed filler panel secure for future use.
2. Unpack the interface card.

Removing the card
1. Prepare an anti-static bag.
2. Remove the cables from the card.
3. Press the latch to release the ejector lever
4. Rotate outward the ejector lever as shown by callout 1 in Figure 4.
5. Pull out the interface card slowly out of the interface card slot, as shown by callout 2 in Figure 4.
6. Place the removed interface card in the anti-static bag.
7. If you are not to install a new card, install a filler panel in the slot to prevent dust and ensure good ventilation in the device.

Installing and removing QSFP28/QSFP+ transceiver modules and cables
For information about installing and removing QSFP28 transceiver modules, QSFP28 cables, QSFP28 to SFP28 cables, QSFP+ transceiver modules, QSFP+ cables, and QSFP+ to SFP+ cables, see H3C Transceiver Modules and Network Cables Installation Guide at www.h3c.com.
Verifying the installation
After the installation is complete, determine whether the interface card is operating correctly.
If the card fails to operate correctly, perform the following steps:
1. Reinstall the card following the installation procedures described in this document.
2. If the problem persists, contact H3C Support.
