Installing a Network Interface Module in the IR8340 Router
To install a Network Interface Module (NIM) in the IR8340 router, follow these steps:
Before you begin
Before you install the modules to the router, make sure that the router is fully powered off. Every time you
insert or remove a module, the router must be powered off first. The power should be resumed after the module
is inserted into or removed from the slot.
Note
Step 1 Remove the blank faceplate installed at the NIM slot that you intend to use by loosening the two captive screws. Save
blank faceplates for future use.
Step 2 Insert the NIM into one of the router NIM slots, as shown in the following figure.

Step 3 Push the module into place until you feel the edge connector seat securely into the connector on the router backplane.
Step 4 After the module is properly inserted, tighten the module plate to the router with the two captive screws. The screws
should be torqued to 5 to 7 in-lbs.
Step 5 Connect the module to the network and re-enable the power to the slot in the router.
