50 Chapter 2 Installing Passport 8600 modules and connecting equipment
312749-B Rev 00
Installing a module
You can install a Passport 8600 module with the power on or off. If you install a
module in the same chassis slot where the same type of module was previously
installed, the previous configuration is maintained for that module in that slot. In
all other cases, a module installed in a Passport 8000 Series chassis is reset to
factory defaults.
To install a Passport 8600 module:
1 Locate the slot where you want to install the module.
2 Remove the installed module or the filler panel.
For instructions, see “Removing a module” on page 46 or “Removing a filler
panel” on page 44.
3 Make sure that the insert/extract levers are extended away from the front of
the module (see Figure 23 or Figure 24).
4 Slide the module into the slot using the slot module guides (Figure 27 or
Figure 28).
