Figure 12 Removing a Main Chassis Card
3.3.3 Installing a Splitter Chassis Card
The splitter card’s type and slot number must match those of the DSL line card to which it is to
connect. For example, install ASC1024 cards in slots 3-1 and 3-2 of the splitter chassis if there
is an ALC1248G line card in slot 3 of the main chassis. Leave the slot covers on unused
splitter slots.
Use the following procedure to install a splitter card in the splitter chassis.
1 Install the splitter cards in the splitter chassis slots that correspond to the slot number of
the line card in the main chassis (a management switch card does not need a splitter
chassis card).
2 Grasp the center of the front panel of the card with one hand and place the other hand
under the card to support it.
3 Insert the card into the slot and push it in until the front panel of the card is flush with the
front panel of the splitter chassis.
4 Tighten the two thumbscrews.
