• Remove the module from its package. Install it directly into the chassis without setting the module down. If you must set down the module, put it back into its static-protective package. Do not place the module on the chassis or on a metal surface. • Take care when you handle modules during cold weather. Heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity. • The chassis comes with an electrostatic discharge (ESD) connector. To use the ESD connector, see the documentation included with the chassis. Electrical considerations The switch module requires a maximum of 140 watts; the blade server chassis supplies 12 V power. Out of this 12 V power input, the standby power supply supplies 3.3 V. No other power requirement or provision exists. CAUTION: Do not attempt to replace the real-time clock (RTC) battery. There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced or disposed off. If the real-time clock begins to lose time, contact your switch module supplier. Environmental considerations Ensure proper cooling and ventilation. Verify the following: • Air vents on the blade server are not blocked or restricted. • Ambient air temperature at the front of the enclosure does not exceed 40ºC (104ºF) while the switch module is operating. Unpack The shipping carton includes one switch module-the blade server FC switch module-with two, four, or eight SWL 32-Gbps SFP+ transceivers pre-installed. 1 Open the shipping box and inspect the contents for damage. NOTE: Do not insert a damaged switch module in the blade server chassis. If the switch module is damaged, contact your sales representative before proceeding. 2 Remove the foam layer that sits on top of the switch module. 3 Remove the switch module from the protective foam surround. 4 Remove the foam ends from the switch module. 5 Remove the orange protective cover from the internal connectors. 6 Slide the switch module out of the antistatic sleeve. NOTE: Always follow standard ESD precautions. For more information, see your blade server documentation. Switch module information Before installing the switch module, obtain the switch module serial number. To locate the serial number: • Locate the serial number on the label attached to the top of the switch module. This label is not visible when you install the switch module in the chassis. • Enter the chassisShow command. The switch module serial number displays along with other data.

Remove the module from its package. Install it directly into the chassis without setting the module down. If you must set down the
module, put it back into its static-protective package. Do not place the module on the chassis or on a metal surface.
Take care when you handle modules during cold weather. Heating reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.
The chassis comes with an electrostatic discharge (ESD) connector. To use the ESD connector, see the documentation included with
the chassis.
Electrical considerations
The switch module requires a maximum of 140 watts; the blade server chassis supplies 12 V power. Out of this 12 V power input, the
standby power supply supplies 3.3 V. No other power requirement or provision exists.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to replace the real-time clock (RTC) battery. There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly
replaced or disposed
off.
If the real-time clock begins to lose time, contact your switch module supplier.
Environmental considerations
Ensure proper cooling and ventilation. Verify the following:
Air vents on the blade server are not blocked or restricted.
Ambient air temperature at the front of the enclosure does not exceed 40ºC (104ºF) while the switch module is operating.
Unpack
The shipping carton includes one switch module—the blade server FC switch module—with two, four, or eight SWL 32-Gbps SFP+
transceivers pre-installed.
1
Open the shipping box and inspect the contents for damage.
NOTE:
Do not insert a damaged switch module in the blade server chassis. If the switch module is damaged, contact your
sales representative before proceeding.
2
Remove the foam layer that sits on top of the switch module.
3
Remove the switch module from the protective foam surround.
4
Remove the foam ends from the switch module.
5
Remove the orange protective cover from the internal connectors.
6
Slide the switch module out of the antistatic sleeve.
NOTE:
Always follow standard ESD precautions.
For more information, see your blade server documentation.
Switch module information
Before installing the switch module, obtain the switch module serial number. To locate the serial number:
Locate the serial number on the label attached to the top of the switch module. This label is not visible when you install the switch
module in the chassis.
Enter the
