Understanding replaceability terms
This guide describes whether modules and other items are “field replaceable,” “hot-swappable,” and
whether replacing them entails any service disruption. Here are the definitions of these terms:
• “Field-replaceable” means the item can be replaced without returning the entire network element to
Airvana. Field-replaceable items may or may not be hot-swappable.
• “Hot-swappable” means the item can be replaced without powering down other modules or the cabinet
as a whole. Hot swappable items may or may not cause service disruption when swapped out.
• “Service disrupting” means replacing the item causes some break in the continuity of service to at least
some user sessions.
