Remove the WAN BIC

1. Put on an ESD wriststrap and connect the grounding clip securely to an unpainted

metal surface on the SWAN 2 concentrator rack containing the WAN BIC to be

replaced.

2. Use a Phillips screwdriver (if necessary) to loosen the lock-down screws on the

interface converter cable connected to the WAN BIC to be replaced. Disconnect

the interface converter cable from the WAN BIC to be replaced. (You can leave the

Ethernet cable connected to the interface converter cable.)

3. Loosen the thumbscrews on the WAN BIC to be replaced and pull the WAN BIC

partway out until it is unseated from the SWAN 2 concentrator chassis.

4. Grasp the WAN BIC in one hand and, while supporting the bottom edge of the

WAN BIC with the other hand, slowly pull the WAN BIC all the way out of the slot.

5. Place the WAN BIC in an ESD protective bag and pack it into its original shipping

container.
