Installing the Fiber Expansion Modules
To install an expansion module on the back of the EtherFast 10/100 Dual-
Speed Switches, follow these instructions:
1. Power off your Switch and remove the AC power cord before begin-
ning. If the switch is installed in a rack, it is recommended to remove the
switch from the rack temporarily and reinstall it after the add-on module is
installed.
2. Remove the metal faceplate from the back of your Switch by loosening
the screws on either side (use the knobs, a screwdriver is not required).
3. Remove the expansion module from its package.
3. Carefully insert the expansion module and gently slide it into the switch.
4. The fiber module should fit snugly into the slot inside the switch.
5. Tighten the screws on the expansion module to secure it in place. You
may now reinstall the switch into its rack (if required), reconnect the AC
power cord and power on the switch to resume normal operation.
If you are installing a Fiber Optic Distance Extender module of any kind,
make sure that you consult the special section on Fiber Optics included in
the Appendix before connecting any cabling.
