Insert an Avaya Expansion Module

The Expansion Modules provide increased networking and connectivity capabilities. These modules may be mounted on the G700 Media Gateway in the slot on the lower left side of the unit below slot v1 (see AvayaTM G700 Media Gateway: Front View).

CAUTION: The Expansion Module is not hot-swappable. That is, the G700 must be powered off before you insert or remove an Expansion Module. If there is an S8300 present that is also turned on, the S8300 should be shut down first, by pressing the Shutdown button until the OK to Remove LED shows a steady light. Then, the G700 should be powered off.

Insert an Expansion Module into the G700 Media Gateway

Begin _____________________

Turn off the power to the unit if the equipment has been in operation.

1. Remove the blank plate covering the bay.
2. Align the printed circuit board with the interior guide rails.

Note: The printed circuit board fits into the guide rail. The metal base plate does not.

3. Firmly press the Expansion Module into the G700 Media Gateway until it is completely inserted.
4. Tighten the two screws on the front panel of the Expansion Module.

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

WARNING: The Avaya G700 Media Gateway must not be operated with any slot open. Empty slots must be covered with the supplied blank plates.

At this point, you have readied the G700, inserted the S8300, if required, inserted the Media Modules and the Expansion Module, as required in the planning documents. If more than one unit (G700 and/or Level 2 switches and routers) will be connected in the configuration you are installing, the next step will be to insert an Avaya X330STK Stacking Sub-Module .
