You must remove the I/O module from the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch before you install the
S-POE card.
You need the following tools and equipment to install an S-POE card:
● ESD-preventive wrist strap

To install the S-POE daughter card:
1 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your bare wrist. If the metal end is not already connected,
connect it to the ground receptacle at the top left corner of the chassis.
2 Remove the I/O module from the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch, following the instructions in
“Removing a BlackDiamond 8000 Series Module” on page 120. Set the module on an ESD-preventive
work surface.
