Insert the Avaya S8300 Media Server
(If Necessary for Standalone Service or LSP)

The S8300 Media Server is inserted into the G700 Media Gateway slot #1 (v1), whether it is the primary server or configured as a Local Survivable Processor (LSP). The S8300 can only be inserted in the slot (v1) on the left side of the G700 Media Gateway. The LED module must be pulled from its housing to provide clearance for the S8300 Media Server.

CAUTION: If you are removing an S8300, use the shutdown button to stop the operating system. The OK to Remove LED will flash while the shutdown is in progress and will turn steady green when it is safe to remove the S8300.

Insert the S8300 into Slot #1 of the G700 Media Gateway

Begin _____________________

1. Clear the left side of the G700 Media Gateway.
1. Remove the blank plate from slot #1.
2. Then, disengage the LED module and remove it from the G700 Media Gateway.
2. Line up the Avaya S8300 Media Server module squarely with its bay opening.

4. Align the LED module in its guides and gently push it into place, keeping the LED module safely within its guides and maintaining an even pressure to assure that the module does not become twisted or disengage from the guides.

Guide the longer, left side of the LED module into the chassis until the shorter, right edge of the module can engage in its guides.

5. Push steadily and firmly until the faceplates of the S8300 Media Server and the LED module are even and then push the two units into the housing together.
6. Apply firm pressure to engage the connectors.

The connector has different length pins. The long pins will engage first to provide grounding. Medium length and short pins will provide power and signal.

7. Tighten the captive screws on the S8300 Media Server module.

WARNING: To prevent access to electrical hazards by unauthorized personnel and to ensure continued compliance to radiated emissions requirements, all captive screws must be securely tightened such that they cannot be loosened without the use of a tool.
