Figure 209: Installing a XENPAK module
6 Slide the XENPAK module as far into the slot as possible, until you hear it click, indicating that it is
firmly attached.
7 Secure the XENPAK module to the Summit option card by tightening the captive screws until they
are hand-tight.
8 Store the antistatic container, dust covers, and card-edge connector protective pad in a clean location
in case you need to remove the XENPAK module.
9 If only one XENPAK module is installed, attach a supplied cover plate over the other module slot.
To ensure that your module is undamaged upon installation, you can correlate factory test data with your installation
site test data by consulting the average power reference values shown on the XENPAK module test data sheet (Part
No. 121074-00) enclosed with your module.
Remove the dust covers from the module connectors before you connect cables.
Removing a XENPAK Module
Be sure that proper ESD controls are in use before switch maintenance is performed. This includes but is not
limited to wrist straps that are grounded to the switch chassis and earth grounds.
Disconnect the fiber optic cable from the XENPAK module before removing the module from the Summit XGM2-2xn
option card. Do not stare directly into the beam; it can cause eye damage.
To remove a XENPAK module:
1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end to the equipment
rack.
2 Disconnect the fiber-optic cable from the XENPAK module and install dust covers over the module
connectors.
