Installing a Line Card in an EX9200 Switch
EX9200 switches have field-replaceable unit (FRU) line cards that can be installed in
the line card slots on the front of the switch chassis. The line cards are hot-insertable
and hot-removable: You can remove and replace them without powering off the switch
or disrupting switch functions. However, we recommend that you take them offline before
removing them.
Before you begin installing a line card in the switch:
•
Ensure that you have taken the necessaryprecautions to prevent electrostatic discharge
(ESD) damage (see “Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage” on page 351).
•
If there are any transceivers installed in the line card, remove them before you install
the line card. For instructions on removing transceivers, see “Removing a Transceiver
from a Switch” on page 257.
•
Ensure that you know how to handle and store the line card (see “Handling and Storing
Line Cards in EX9200 Switches” on page 237).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to install a line card in the
switch:
•
ESD grounding strap
To install a line card in the switch:
1. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to the ESD
point on the switch chassis.
2. If the slot has a cover panel on it, rotate the ejector handles simultaneously
counterclockwise to unseat the cover panel.
