chassis and remove the power cables from the chassis power supplies.
3. Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by inserting the plug into the ESD connector
located on the chassis front.

Installing a new management module
Before installing a module into the chassis, have the following on hand:
• A new management module, which you can order from Brocade.
• An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to the ESD connector on the chassis.
For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 meg ohm resistor.
• A #2 Phillips-head or flathead screwdriver.

5. Insert the module into the chassis slot as shown in Figure 40 and Figure 41, and slide the card
along the card guide until the ejectors on either side of the module move close to the module
front panel.
6. Push the ejectors toward the center of the module. This action will fully seat the module in the
backplane.
