Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the M1KB-SWX, power down the Mediant 1000B chassis completely. Slide the module into the designated expansion slot until it is firmly seated and secure the locking mechanism. Once the gateway is powered back on, the module should be auto-detected by the management interface. Compatibility is restricted strictly to the Mediant 1000B series; attempting to force this module into other hardware will result in physical damage or system errors. For maintenance, keep the chassis in a climate-controlled environment to prevent dust accumulation on the GE interfaces. Ensure that all firmware on the Mediant 1000B is updated to the latest version to fully recognize the additional ports after physical installation.
