2 Push the MiniGBIC into the slot until it is completely inserted and securely seated in the 
OS6600-GNI-U2 module on OmniSwitch 6624, 6600-U24, and 6648 switches, as shown.

MiniGBICs modules can be hot swapped. You are not required to power off the switch before removing a 
MiniGBIC from the uplink module. To remove a MiniGBIC from the uplink module, follow the steps 
below:

Anti-Static Warning. Before handling any components, free yourself of static by wearing a grounding 
strap, or by grounding yourself properly. Static discharge can damage the MiniGBIC, as well as the switch 
and uplink module.

1 On OmniSwitch 6624, 6600-U24, and 6648 switches only, make sure that the captive screws on the 
OS6600-GNI-U2 are tightened and the module is securely installed in the chassis. 

2 There is a small removal handle at the front of the MiniGBIC transceiver. Carefully lift this handle; 
then, grasp the handle and carefully pull the MiniGBIC from the module.

3 Store the MiniGBIC in a secure, static-free location. Placing the MiniGBIC in an anti-static bag is 
recommended.
