▌Installing and removing an interface card
|
|
CAUTION: · Before you install or remove an interface 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 an interface card. · The LSWM18QC interface card is hot swappable. However, do not install or remove it during the startup of the switch. |
Installing an interface card
Before you install an interface card, remove the filler panel (if any) from the target slot. Keep the removed filler panel secure for future use.
To install an interface card:
1. Unpack the interface card.
