Introduction
The Nortel 8000 Series chassis provides the physical enclosure for the
8000 Series switch modules. When Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 modules
are installed in the chassis, the resulting Ethernet Routing Switch 8600
provides a range of data speeds and high-performance switching and
routing features.
This guide provides instructions for installing the Ethernet Routing Switch
8600 modules in a 8000 Series chassis.
This guide is intended for qualified service personnel who need to install
or replace a Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 modules in the chassis. A
qualified service person should have appropriate technical training and
experience and be aware of the hazards involved in installing and replacing
customer-replaceable units.

protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated
in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy. If it is not installed and used in accordance
with the instruction manual, it may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely
to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to take
whatever measures may be necessary to correct the interference at their
own expense.
ICES statement (Canada only)
Canadian Department of Communications Radio Interference
Regulations
This digital apparatus (8000 Series chassis and installed components)
does not exceed the Class A limits for radio-noise emissions from digital
apparatus as set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian
Department of Communications.
Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique du ministère des
Communications
Cet appareil numérique (8000 Series chassis) respecte les limites de bruits
radioélectriques visant les appareils numériques de classe A prescrites
dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique du ministère des
Communications du Canada.
CE marking statement (Europe only)
EN 55 022 statements
This is to certify that the Nortel Networks 8000 Series chassis and
components installed within the chassis are shielded against the generation
