Installing Flash-Memory SIMMs
Follow this procedure to install Flash-memory SIMMs:
Step 1 Find the Flash-memory SIMM sockets on the Cisco 3600 series motherboard.
(See Figure 10 and Figure 11.)
Caution Handle SIMMs by the edges only. SIMMs are ESD-sensitive components and can be
damaged by mishandling.
Step 2 Hold the SIMM with the polarization notch on the right and the component side away
from you, with the connector edge at the bottom.
Step 3 Referring to Figure 13, insert the Flash-memory SIMM into its connector slot at an angle,
tilted toward the left side of the chassis. Rock the SIMM into a vertical position, using the
minimum amount of force required. When the SIMM is properly seated, the socket guide
posts fit through the alignment holes, and the locking springs click into place. Use the
minimum amount of force required.
2. Push the top of the SIMM
forward and down.
1. Pull the locking spring clips outward.
