The Avaya G700 media gateway must not be operated with any slots open.
Failure to cover empty slots with the supplied blank plates can cause overheating
due to inadequate air distribution.
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
A maximum of 3 MM717 24-port DCP Media Modules can be installed in a
single G700. Also, the ports on the MM717 are intended for in-building use only.
Phone lines connected to those ports are not to be routed out-of-building. Failure
to comply with this restriction could cause harm to personnel or equipment.
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
The connector pins can be bent or damaged if the module is handled roughly, or
if misaligned and then forced into position.
!
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
Separate ESD paths to the chassis ground connect to the media modules at the
spring-loaded captive screws. Use a screw driver to ensure the captive screws
are securely tightened to prevent damage to the equipment.
To insert media modules
1. Remove the blank plate from the empty bay.
2. Position the media module squarely before the selected bay on the front of the G700 Media
Gateway chassis and engage both sides of the module in the interior guides.
3. Slide the module slowly into the chassis, maintaining an even pressure to assure that the
module does not become twisted or disengaged from the guides.
