The Switch 5500G Family Power Module is swappable. To install the 
power module:

2 Verify that the Power Module is not installed upside-down (the module 

should be installed according to the letters. If the module is installed 
upside down, it will not be fully seated due the design of the chassis’ 
internal structure). 

3 Use one hand to hold the handle on the front, and another to hold the 

bottom. Slide it gently along the power slot. Push the module until it is 
fully seated.

4 Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the screws at both sides of the 

module.

To remove the Power Module:

1 Wear an ESD wrist strip, and make sure it is well grounded.

2 Disconnect all power to the switch.

3 Use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the screws on both sides of the 

module.

4 Use one hand to hold the handle on the front, and another to hold the 

top. Pull out the module stably towards you along the power slot until it 
is completely apart from the chassis bottom.
