HP ProCurve Switch xl Modules

Installing the Modules

Installing or Removing the mini-GBICs

You can install or remove a mini-GBIC from the mini-GBIC xl Module without

having to power off the switch. Use only HP ProCurve mini-GBICs.

WARNING The HP ProCurve mini-GBICs are Class 1 laser devices. Avoid direct

eye exposure to the beam coming from the transmit port.

Installing the mini-GBICs:

Hold the mini-GBIC by its sides and gently insert it into any of the slots in the

module until the mini-GBIC clicks into place.

Removing the mini-GBICs:

You should disconnect the network cable from the mini-GBIC before removing

it from the module.

Depending on when you purchased your HP ProCurve mini-GBICs, it may have

either of three different release mechanisms: a plastic tab on the bottom of

the mini-GBIC, a wire bail, or a plastic collar around the mini-GBIC.

To remove the mini-GBICs that have the plastic tab or plastic collar, push in

the plastic tab or collar toward the switch until you see the mini-GBIC release

from the switch (you can see it move outward slightly), and then pull it from

the slot.

To remove the mini-GBICs that have the wire bail, lower the bail until it is

approximately horizontal, and then using the bail, pull the mini-GBIC from the

slot.
