7.8.1 
Replacing an iDEN 2-Port RadioBlade Transceiver (RadioBlades) 
The MC-Series System supports hot swapping of RadioBlade. This means that replacement of a 
RadioBlade can be done while the system is live and does not require a system reset. When 
RadioBlades are hot swapped no alarm is generated. Rather, an RB lock and unlock event is 
placed in the System Manager Event Log. 
Each RadioBlade is shipped wrapped in antistatic packaging, along with a lockdown strap and 
screw for securing the RB in the RadioBlade Shelf (RBS).   
NOTE:  Use an SMA torque wrench (such as the Huber & Suhner 742-0-0-21 SMA torque 
wrench) for removing and installing RBs.  
Take the RadioBlade out of service by locking it (refer to the procedure in Appendix G, 
section G.4 Locking and Unlocking a RadioBlade).  
The RBS is divided into three groups (A, B, and C) from left to right. Slots in each group are 
numbered as follows, from front to back: 
• 
Group A: slots 1 through 8 
• 
Group B: slots 9 through 16 
• 
Group C: slots 17 through 24 
Pull out the RBS using the handle on the front of the unit. 
Remove the RadioBlade that is to be replaced (see the following illustration).
