Site Location The switch should be installed in a secure or limited access site to control unauthorized access to the switch's cabling and power connections. Installing a GBIC Module With Power On Each switch supports eight universal ports and their interchangeable GBIC modules. The GBIC module uses a standard subscriber connector (SC) or high speed serial data connectors (HSSDC). A GBIC module can be inserted while the switch is operational (power on). NOTICE: The GBIC module is keyed so it can be inserted into the interface card in only one way. Do not force the insertion if the GBIC module does not slide in easily. To install an IBM® GBIC module into an interface card, perform the following steps: 1. Ensure that the locking bar on the front of the IBM GBIC module is to the right side of the GBIC. 2. Insert the GBIC module until its connector is firmly seated into the appropriate port. 3. When firmly seated, lock the GBIC module in the slot by pushing the locking bar to the left side of the GBIC. Do not force the locking bar; reseat if necessary. To install a non-IBM GBIC module into an interface module, perform the following steps: 1. Insert the GBIC module into the appropriate port. 2. Press the GBIC module until its connector is firmly seated.
