interface-converter cables. Disconnect each interface-converter cable from the

WAN ports on the front of the old SWAN concentrator. (You can leave your cables

connected to the interface-converter cables.)

need this information when connecting these cables to the replacement SWAN

concentrator.

12. Disconnect the Ethernet cables from the Ethernet ports on the front of the old

SWAN concentrator, making note of the port that each cable is plugged into.

to the old SWAN concentrator. A replacement power cord is provided with the

replacement SWAN concentrator.

14. If the old SWAN concentrator is installed in a 19-inch rack, use the following

procedure to remove it from the rack. See Figure 2-15.

loosens and removes the screw from each mounting bracket.

Note. Removing a SWAN concentrator from a rack requires two people. The SWAN

concentrator weighs approximately 12 pounds (approximately 5.5 kilograms).
