Removing the existing16-port card You can identify a failed 16-port card by inspecting its LEDs and by using CLI commands to verify status. Refer to "Interpreting LED activity" on page 64 for a description of the LEDs. CAUTION: Wear a grounded ESD strap when handling a 16-port card. The chassis has a grounding connection above the power connectors. Hold the 16-port card by the edges of the metal pan. Do not use the ejectors to hold or carry a 16-port card. Disassembling any part of a 16-port card or filler panel voids the part warranty and regulatory certifications. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the 16-port card or filler panel NOTE: Before removing any cables from the faulty 16-port card make a note of cable order by referring a cable to the physical port; this reduces confusion during recabling. If multiple 16-port cards are being replaced, replace one card at a time. Before replacing a 16-port card, determine if it is the entire card or the SFPs that are faulty. To remove a 16-port card, follow these steps: 1. Ensure that traffic is not flowing through the 16-port card (port LEDs should be off) prior to disconnecting cables. 2. Disconnect any cables and SFP transceivers from the 16-port card. 3. Turn the 16-port card off by sliding the ON/OFF switch in the top handle down. NOTE: You can also send hot-swap notification from the CLI using the commands slotPowerOff and slotPowerOn. 4. Wait for the Power LED to turn off in response to the hot-swap request before uninstalling the 16-port card. 5. Unscrew the captive screws from both handles. 6. Open both ejectors to approximately 45 degrees, and pull the 16-port card out of the chassis. NOTE: If you inadvertently relatch the ejectors prior to removing the 16-port card, wait at least one second prior to unlatching the ejectors again. 7. If you are not replacing the card with another 16-port card, install a filler panel to ensure correct cooling of the chassis and protection from dust. (See "Installing a filler panel" on page 97 for more information.) Core Switch 2/64 and SAN Director 2/128 installation guide 93
