AT-8400 Line Card and Power Supply
The AT-8400 chassis also requires a blank faceplate installed in any power
supply slot not occupied by a power supply. The power supply blank
faceplate (see Figure 2) ensures proper cooling and ventilation of the
AT-8400 chassis.
Caution
Do not install a blank faceplate in Slot M. Slot M is reserved for the
AT-8401 Management Fabric Card.
2. Unpack a blank faceplate from the shipping package, and store any
unused blank faceplates in a safe location.
Caution
Observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions, such
as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to avoid damaging the chassis
device. Line cards can be damaged by static electricity.

Overview
AT-8400 blank faceplates are designed to maintain optimal, trouble-free
environmental conditions for the AT-8400 chassis. This installation guide
provides instructions for installing both the line card blank faceplate and
the power supply blank faceplate.
The AT-8400 chassis requires a blank faceplate installed in every chassis slot
that is not occupied by an Ethernet line card. The blank faceplate (see
Figure 1) keeps dust from getting into the switch and maintains proper
airflow throughout the chassis.
