The following table summarizes the application for each switch module.
For additional information, see the SB-HE Installation and User’s Guide on the Resource CD.
Installation guidelines
Before you begin installing the IXM5414E switch module in your SB-HE, read the following
information:
• Become familiar with the safety and handling guidelines specified under xix and “Handling
static-sensitive devices” on page 12, and read the safety statements in the SB-HE option
publications.
• The green color on components and labels in your SB-HE identifies hot-swap or hot-plug
components. You can install or remove hot-swap modules while the SB-HE is running. For
complete details about installing or removing a hot-swap or hot-plug component, see the
detailed information in this chapter.
• The blue color on components and labels identifies touch points where you can grip a
component, move a latch, and so on.
• You do not need to turn off the SB-HE to install or replace any of the hot-swap modules on the
rear of the SB-HE.
• For more information regarding installing the software for the IXM5414E switch module, see
Chapter 153
System reliability considerations
Attention: To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, make sure that:
• Each of the I/O module bays on the rear of the SB-HE has either a module or filler module
installed.
• A removed hot-swap module is replaced with an identical module or filler module within 1
minute of removal.
• Cables for the optional modules are routed according to the illustrations and instructions in this
document.
