Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 9000 Quick Setup Guide

Installing the Hardware

Note. Alcatel-Lucent provides factory-installed blank 

cover plates for empty module slots. Do not remove these 

cover plates as they play an important role in chassis 

ventilation.

With one hand, grasp the handle at the front of the 

power supply and slowly pull the power supply out of the 
power supply bay. Do not pull the power supply 
completely out of the bay with one hand.

When the power supply is pulled out far enough (about 

10”), place your other hand under the power supply casing 
to support its weight.

 Continue pulling the power supply out until it is 

removed from the chassis.

 Set the power supply aside on a clean, static-free 

surface. You will need to re-install it later.

 Remove all remaining power supplies by repeating 

steps 7 through 11.

 Continue to “Lifting the Chassis” below.
