Table 8-3 Module LED Behavior (continued) LED Display for a properly Installed module approximately 30 seconds after the power on or reset, during which the switch is tested. 8.3.4 Removing and Installing a mini-GBIC You can install and remove a mini-GBIC from a mini-GBIC xl module without having to power off the switch or module. Warning! The HP ProCurve mini-GBICs are Class 1 laser devices. Avoid direct eye exposure to the beam coming from the transmit port. Take the following steps to remove a mini-GBIC: 1. Put on an ESD wrist strap and attach the copper tape to a grounded metal surface (e.g. an equipment rack) to act as ground. Caution: To avoid risk of shock, do not attach the copper tape to the air flow panel of the power supply. For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap provided with your product contains a series limiting resistor. If a replacement ESD strap is used, make certain that it contains a series limiting resistor with at least 1M Ohm of resistance. Also, make certain the strap is not connected to any internal part of your ProCurve chassis. 2. Disconnect the network cable from the mini-GBIC. 3. The HP ProCurve mini-GBICs have three different release mechanisms: a plastic tab on the bottom of the mini-GBIC, a wire bail, or a plastic collar around the mini-GBIC. To remove the mini-GBICs that have the plastic tab or plastic collar, push in the plastic tab or collar toward the switch until you see the mini-GBIC release from the switch (you can see it move outward slightly), and then pull it from the slot. To remove the mini-GBICs that have the wire bail, lower the bail until it is approximately horizontal. Use the bail to pull the mini-GBIC from the slot. 4. Insert a new mini-GBIC, as described in the next section, or insert the protective covering into the port connectors. 5. Store the mini-GBIC in a safe, static-free place. Take the following steps to install a mini-GBIC: 1. Put on an ESD wrist strap and attach the copper tape to a grounded metal surface (e.g. an equipment rack) to act as ground. Caution: To avoid risk of shock, do not attach the copper tape to the air flow panel of the power supply. For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap provided with your product contains a series limiting resistor. If a replacement ESD strap is used, make certain that it contains a series limiting resistor with at least 1M Ohm of resistance. Also, make certain the strap is not connected to any internal part of your ProCurve chassis. 2. Remove the defective mini-GBIC, as described in the previous section, or remove the protective covering from the port connectors. Be sure to store the covering for future use. 3. Remove the mini-GBIC from its protective packaging. 64 HP ProCurve 9300 Series

8.3.4 Removing and Installing a mini-GBIC
You can install and remove a mini-GBIC from a mini-GBIC xl module without having to power
off the switch or module.
Warning!
The HP ProCurve mini-GBICs are Class 1 laser devices. Avoid direct eye exposure to the beam
coming from the transmit port.
Take the following steps to remove a mini-GBIC:
1.
Put on an ESD wrist strap and attach the copper tape to a grounded metal surface (e.g. an
equipment rack) to act as ground.
Caution:
To avoid risk of shock, do not attach the copper tape to the air flow panel of the power
supply. For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap provided with your product contains a series
limiting resistor. If a replacement ESD strap is used, make certain that it contains a series
limiting resistor with at least 1M Ohm of resistance. Also, make certain the strap is not
