Replacing a fiber-optic transceiver 6 • An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to the ESD connector on the BigIron RX Series chassis DANGER For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a 1 meg ohm series resistor. • A large flat-head screwdriver Follow the steps given below to install a new switch fabric module in a BigIron RX Series chassis. 1. Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by inserting the plug into an ESD connector located on the chassis front. 2. Remove the new module from its packaging. 3. Insert the module into the chassis slot, and slide the card along the card guide until the ejectors on either side of the module move close to the module front panel. 4. Push the ejectors even closer until they are flush with the module front panel. This action will fully seat the module in the backplane. 5. Tighten the two screws at either end of the module front panel by pushing them in and turning them clockwise. Then, tighten the screws further using the flat-head screwdriver.
