Installing the Summit XGM2-2xf Option Card
The Summit XGM2-2xf option card is not hot-swappable. Disconnect power to the switch before installing or
removing the Summit XGM2-2xf option card. After the Summit XGM2-2xf option card is installed in a compatible
switch, XFP modules may be hot-swapped into and out of the option card. Use only XFP modules approved by
Extreme Networks.
Be sure that the option slot always has either an installed Summit option card or a faceplate over the opening. An
open slot could divert air from the switch and cause overheating.
To install the Summit XGM2-2xf option card:
1 Disconnect the power from the Summit switch by removing the plug from the wall outlet.
2 If a redundant power supply is in use, disconnect the power of the redundant power supply by
removing the plug from the wall outlet.
3 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end to the equipment
rack.
4 Remove the screws holding the filler panel over the option slot on the back of the switch
(Figure 211). Remove the filler panel and set it aside. Save the screws for re-use.

5 Align the sheet metal edges on the option card with the card guides in the switch housing. Carefully
slide the Summit XGM2-2xf option card into the switch housing until the connectors engage and the
option card is flush with the back panel of the switch (Figure 212).
