8.2 Preliminary Disassembly
Hot-pluggable
Modules
The reciter, PA and front panel are hot-pluggable and can be removed
without powering down the whole base station. These modules can also be
removed without disrupting the system control bus communications with
other modules in the subrack.
Notice Before removing a PA, disconnect the DC input and RF input
first, followed by the RF output. After refitting the PA, reconnect the RF
output first, followed by the RF input, and then the DC input.

follow these steps.
