Before installing the switch blades
The M6100 series switch blades are designed to be installed in the
XCM8903 switch chassis. We recommend installing the XCM8903 chassis
into a rack before installing any switch blades. For more information about
how to install the XCM8903 switch chassis, see the M6100 - Campus Edge
and SMB Core Chassis Switch, Blades, and Daughter Cards Hardware
Installation Guide.

Install the chassis
You can either rack-mount the chassis into a rack or install the chassis
using the included rails. For information about installing the chassis using
rails, see the Campus Edge and SMB Core Chassis Switches M6100 Series
Hardware Installation Guide.
To rack-mount the chassis:
1. Partially screw two of the included screws into the rack where you
want the bottom of the chassis to rest.
2. Rest the bottom of the chassis’s brackets on the two screws.
3. Attach the rest of the screws to secure the bracket to the rack.

4. Install the fan tray
To install the fan tray:
1. Carefully slide the fan tray all the way into the fan tray bay at the rear
of the chassis.
The fan tray is connected to power when it has been inserted
completely into the fan tray bay.
2. Screw the fan tray to the rear of the chassis using the included screws.

Install a switch blade
To install a switch blade in a M6100 series chassis switch:
1. Select a slot for the switch blade.
2. Remove a blank front panel from the chassis slot, if necessary.
Any unoccupied switch blade slot in the chassis must have a blank
faceplate installed to ensure satisfactory protection from EMI and to
maintain adequate airflow through the chassis.
3. Remove the switch blade from the antistatic packaging.
CAUTION: To prevent ESD damage, hold the switch blade by the
metal rail and front panel only. Never touch the components on the
PCB or the pins on any of the connectors.
4. Verify that the switch blade injector-ejector handles are open.
5. Keep the injector-ejector handles in the open position as you slide the
switch blade into the chassis slot.
CAUTION: Do not slide the switch blade into the open chassis slot if
the injector-ejector handles are in the latched position.
8
6. Using both hands, push both handles toward the center of the switch
blade, as shown.
7. Use your ngers or a screwdriver to turn the front panel screws on
each injector-ejector handle clockwise and completely down.
When the screw is fully tightened, the yellow band around the captive
screw is completely hidden.
CAUTION: Be careful to avoid over-torquing and stripping the
screws.

until it clicks into place.
CAUTION: Do not force the power supply into the system backplane.
2. Use the locking handle to secure the power supply in the power
supply bay.
3. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 to install each additional power supply.
