Installing a Switch
Mount the Switch Module in the Server Chassis
McDATA 4416 switch modules are installed in server chassis I/O module
slots 3 and 4 as shown in Figure 3-1. For a single switch module installation,
use I/O module slot 3. Do not attempt to install the McDATA 4416 switch
module in any other I/O module slots.
Figure 3-1. Mounting the Switch Module in the Server Chassis
To insert the McDATA 4416 switch module, do the following:
1. Verify that chassis I/O module slots 3 and 4 are empty.
2. Gripping from the top and bottom of the release latch, gently squeeze the
latch to free the insertion arm.
3. Swing the insertion arm out (away from the chassis) until it is completely
open.
4. Slide the switch module into the open I/O module slot.
5. Push the insertion arm gently toward the chassis until it is completely
closed and the switch module is firmly seated.
CAUTION
Do not force the arm closed. Doing so could cause damage. Instead, if the
switch module does not close easily, gently remove the switch module and
reinsert it.
