To install an NIU/TCU into the
Acme Packet 6300/6350
chassis:
Locate the NIU/TCU.
Ensure that the
ejection levers on the front of the NIU/TCU are in the open and extended
position.
Hold the NIU/TCU by
its sides with the front panel bezel facing you.
Note the two flared
guide rails that the NIU/TCU rides as it is inserted into the
Acme Packet 6300/6350.
The guide rails lead the NIU/TCU to engage with the bus connector squarely.
Aligning the NIU/TCU Card with the Chassis Slot Guides
Slide the NIU/TCU
into the
Acme Packet 6300/6350.
Installing the NIU/TCU (NIU Shown)
Continue sliding
the NIU/TCU into the chassis until the ejection levers catch the chassis. At
this point, the ejection levers will start to fold inward as the NIU/TCU is
inserted into the chassis.
Fold both ejection
levers inward toward the face of the NIU/TCU to draw the physical interface
card toward the system chassis complete the connection to the motherboard.
Locking the NIU/TCU to the Chassis (NIU Shown)
Ensure pressure is applied to the ends of the ejector (not the
sliding section) when seating the NIU/TCU
Verify the lever
catch is fully engaged with the bezel.
Screw the NIU/TCU
thumbscrews into the chassis with a #2 Phillips screwdriver. This creates the
final connection between the interface unit and the chassis.
Tightening NIU/TCU Thumbscrews
Replace all network
and management cabling.
Replace all power
cables. The system boots up.
If the H/S LED
lights in either a steady or flashing state, the NIU is not seated properly. If
the H/S LED is lit, follow these steps:
Unplug the power cords to power down the chassis.
Push the ejection levers inward to draw the physical
interface card toward the system chassis and complete the connection. The
latches must engage to complete NIU insertion. Verify the lever catch is fully
engaged with the bezel.
Replace all power cables. The system boots up.
When the NIU PWR LED is lit and the H/S LED is
extinguished, proceed with normal operations. Otherwise, contact customer
support for further assistance.
