Installing and
Removing
Modules
The DA-6804+D series front modules have corresponding back modules that are
installed in the host frame. See page 24 for details on installing back modules.
These modules cannot be installed in 6800/7000 series frames.
Back Module
Installation
The DA-6804+D series back modules have specialized installation procedures. If
installing both front and back modules, ensure that the back module is installed
first before plugging in the front module.
When removing both the front and back modules, ensure that the front
module is unplugged from the frame first, before removing the back module.
See the appropriate frame installation and operation manual for details on
installing and operating the frame and its components.
See the 6800+ Safety Instructions and Standards Manual for important
information about safely installing your module.
Once you have installed the modules, you can connect them to the appropriate
input and outputs.
SFPs on DA-6804+D series back modules have plastic caps that protect the fragile
laser connections from dust (see Figure 2-5 on page 25). You must remove these
protective covers before you attach the fiber cables.
Figure 2-5 on page 25 shows a typical fiber optical back module. Your module’s
appearance may differ slightly from the one shown; however, the protective covers
are positioned identically and must be removed according to the instructions
provided. The installation instructions that follow will prompt you as to when you
should remove the protective covers.
In addition, all of the LC connections of the fiber optical cables must be inspected
and cleaned before they are assembled. Carefully follow the inspection and
cleaning steps described in the next pages. Additional safety information begins on
Laser Safety Guidelines on page 53.
