Note
Be sure to wear an anti-static strap to prevent electrostatic damage to
the module.
3. Simultaneously press both red buttons on the front-panel handles of the 6511RC to unlock the handles
and prepare the module for removal.
4. Simultaneously press both black handles outward and away from the center of the module to unseat the
6511RC from the mid-plane connectors.
5. Pull the handles gently and firmly to completely remove the Model 6511RC from the rack chassis. Place
the module on an anti-static surface.
6. Repeat the above procedure to remove the rear module from the rack chassis. Place the rear module on an
anti-static surface.
7. Place the removed modules in the container the replacement Model 6511RC came in so you can return
the defective Model 6511RC for repair.
Installing the replacement Model 6511RC
1. Insert the replacement Model 6511RC into the rack chassis.
2. Insert the rear blade into the desired slot in the rack chassis. Make sure the blade is seated properly in the
slot guides.
3. Gently press the blade into the chassis until the alignment/ESD pin engages the chassis. When the blade is
fully seated, the red buttons in the handles click up automatically, thus locking the handle and activating
the switch (closed position). The click of the button gives a visual and audible confirmation that the board
is fully seated.
4. Connect the following cables to the Model 6511RC:
– The STM-1 WAN cable
– The RS-232 CONFIG cable
– The 10/100 Ethernet cable
– The two 10/100/1000 Ethernet cables (if used)
5. Verify that the green POWER LED is lit.
