Installation Guide for cl Modules 2006-03

Installing the Modules

You can install any of the modules into any of the ProCurve cl Switches that

have a compatible module slot. As of this printing, those are the

ProCurve Series 3400cl Switch:

■ 3400cl-24G (J4905A)

■ 3400cl-48G (J4906A)

ProCurve Series 6400cl Switch:

■ 6400cl-6XG CX4 (J8433A)

■ 6410cl-6XG X2 (J8474A)

“Hot Swap”

Notes

The transceivers can be “hot swapped”. That is, they can be installed or

removed after the Media Flex cl Module is installed in the switch and the

module is receiving power.

The expansion cl module itself is not “hot-swappable” or “hot pluggable.” You

cannot insert or remove a module while the switch is powered on without

interrupting the operation of the rest of the switch ports. If you install or

remove an expansion cl module with the switch powered on, a reboot will

occur.

You can install the modules into the switch either with the switch powered on

or off. The following procedures assume the switch is powered off.

1. Install a module (see page 7).

2. If you are using the Media Flex cl Module, install the transceivers in the

module. You can install the transceivers before or after installing that

module into the switch (see page 8).

3. Verify the modules are installed correctly (see page 9).

4. Connect the network cabling (see page 10).

5. Verify the network connections are working properly (see page 12).
