Installing and Removing a XENPAK Module
WARNING!
XENPAK modules become very hot after prolonged use. Take care when removing a XENPAK module from the
chassis or option card. If the XENPAK module is too hot to touch, disengage the XENPAK module and allow it to
cool before removing it completely.
This section describes installing and removing the XENPAK module (Figure 243). You can install or
remove the XENPAK module from your Extreme Networks switch without powering off the system.
NOTE
On a Summit X450 series, X450a series, or X450e series switch, the XENPAK module is inserted into an optional
module card. Although the module card is not hot-swappable, you can hot swap the XENPAK into and out of the
module card on the Summit. See Chapter 4 for information about the optional module card for XENPAKs on a
Summit X450 series, X450a series, or X450e series switch.

CAUTION
To prevent ESD damage to the XENPAK module, always use an appropriately grounded ESD-preventive wrist strap
when installing or removing the module. Handle the module by its sides only. Never touch the card-edge connectors
at the insertion end of the module.
