Installing an Expansion Module

Warning

Before performing any upgrade or installation procedures, ensure that the

SSR 2000 is powered off and that you are properly “grounded” to avoid electrostatic

discharge while working inside the SSR 2000’s chassis.

It may be necessary at some point for you to upgrade or replace your SSR 2000’s

expansion module(s) after receiving your SSR 2000 from Cabletron. You can install any of

the available expansion modules in either of the SSR 2000’s expansion slots, and Figure 1

shows an example of how to install an expansion module. The procedure following the

figure describes how to install the expansion module.

Note:

You can also reference material on installing an expansion module in the

SmartSwitch Router 2000 Getting Started Guide.

To install an expansion module:

1. Ensure that the SSR 2000 is powered off.

2. If your SSR 2000 is equipped for rackmountability, use the phillips-head screwdriver

to remove the mounting brackets from each side of the SSR 2000.

3. Take off the SSR 2000’s top cover.

a. Use the phillips-head screwdriver to remove the four mounting screws (two on

each side of the router, front and back) that hold the top cover on the SSR 2000.

Figure 1. Removing the SSR 2000s cover

b. Slide the cover away from the front of the SSR 2000 about 1/2”, then lift it away

from the SSR 2000.

4. Use the phillips-head screwdriver to remove the four mounting screws in the existing

face plate or cover plate corresponding to the expansion slot where you plan to install

the expansion module. Be sure not to damage or remove the conductive tape on the

inside of the chassis, both above and below the expansion slot opening. (See Figure 2,

below.)

2 Installing an Expansion Module

Figure 2. Removing a face plate or cover plate (view from outside chassis)

5. From the inside of the chassis, line up the four holes in the expansion module’s face

plate with the corresponding holes around the empty expansion slot in the chassis,

and use the phillips-head screwdriver to tighten the screws (from the front) on each

side of the expansion module’s face plate to affix it to the chassis. (See Figure 3,

below.)

Note:

You will probably have to gently push the expansion card’s face plate down

while lining up the first of the screws. The grounding fingers for the

10/100BASE-TX module that sits immediately below the empty expansion

slot protrude upwards to make contact with the bottom of the face plate.

Figure 3. Installing the new face plate (view from inside chassis)

6. Insert the expansion module from the top and ensure that it makes maximum surface

contact with its face plate.

7. Line up the two screw holes at the back of the expansion module and connect

the stacking connector at the back of the expansion module to the pins on the

SSR 2000’s motherboard.

Warning

The female and male connectors for the expansion modules are not keyed, so it is

possible to misalign the connection. Ensure that all pins fit properly into the female

connector on the expansion module before applying power to the SSR 2000.

8. Use the phillips-head screwdriver to tighten all six screws that will hold the

expansion module in place in the SSR 2000’s chassis.

9. Replace the SSR 2000’s cover.

When you are ready to attach the segment cables, use the procedures in “Attaching Port

Cables” in the SmartSwitch Router 2000 Getting Started Guide.
