Replacing a Stacking Module or Option Card in Slot B
of a Summit X460 Series Switch
Slot B on the back of a Summit X460 series switch accommodates a SummitStack or a SummitStack-V80
stacking module, or an XGM3SB-4sf port option card. The replacement process is the same for either of
these options.
You need the following tools to replace a stacking module:
● ESD-preventive wrist strap
● Screwdriver
To replace a stacking module or option card in Slot B:
1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end to an appropriate
ground point on the rack.
2 Completely loosen the captive retaining screws and slide the installed option card or stacking
module out of the switch (Figure 318).
