How to install MEM-4300-8G

• Prepare the equipment: Power down the Cisco device following the manufacturer’s shut‑down procedure and disconnect all power sources to prevent any electrical hazards during installation.
• Ground yourself: Use an anti‑static strap or other grounding method to dissipate static electricity before handling the memory module or the device’s internal components.
• Open the chassis or access panel: Remove the cover according to the device’s service manual, exposing the memory slots where the MEM-4300-8G will be installed.
• Identify the correct slot: Locate the available DIMM slot that is compatible with Cisco memory modules in the MEM-4300 series. If you are replacing an existing module, remove it first by unlocking the slot latch or any retention mechanism as instructed by the device’s documentation.
• Install the DIMM: Align the 8GB DRAM module with the slot’s notch and gently press straight down until it seats firmly. Ensure the retention clips latch securely on both ends to hold the module in place.
• Verify seating and reassemble: Double‑check that the module is evenly seated and that all latches are engaged. Reassemble the chassis or access panel, reconnect power, and boot the device.
• Post‑install validation: After startup, access the device’s management interface to verify that the memory is detected correctly and that the total available memory reflects the upgrade. Run basic diagnostics or a memory test if your Cisco device supports it to confirm stability and performance.
