Installing the DRA-8604
The procedure for installing the rear module and card in your openGear frame is the same
regardless of the rear module used. The DRA-8604 can be installed in the DFR-8321 series
frames and the OG3-FR series frames using one of the supported rear modules.
Supported Rear Modules
The rear module depends on the configuration you wish to use.
Dual 1x8 configuration — The 8320AR-302 Full Rear Module is required.
Dual 1x4 configuration — The 8320AR-300 Full Rear Module is required.
Single 1x16 configuration — The 8320AR-302 Full Rear Module is required.
Single 1x8 configuration — The 8320AR-300 Full Rear Module is required.
Installing a Card
You must first install the rear module in the frame and then install the card in the appropriate slot
within an openGear frame. This section outlines how to perform both tasks.
To install the rear module in the openGear frame
1. Refer to the DFR-8300 and OG3-FR Series User Manual to ensure that the frame is
properly installed.
2. On the rear of the frame, locate the card frame slot.
3. Remove the Blank Plate from the rear of the slot you have chosen for card installation.
4. As shown in Figure 2.1, seat the bottom of the rear module in the seating slot at the base
of the frame’s back plane.
