Removing Cards from the Chassis
Note
The BPID board monitors OIR by counting the number of card insertions for each slot and saving that
information in non-volatile memory. OIR monitoring is done for all line cards, the RSP, the RP, and the fan
trays. See
Removing Cards from the Chassis
Follow these steps to remove and replace an RSP card, RP card, FC, or LC from the card cage:
Procedure
Step 1
Power down the card using either of the two processes:
a) Use the CLI to power down the card.
Router# admin
Router(admin)# config
Router(admin-config)# hw-module power disable location location
Router(admin-config)# commit
Router(admin-config)# exit
The location is specified in rack/slot/cpu notation. For example, hw-module power disable location
0/1/CPU0.
b) Disengage the card from the back plane by performing Step 3a, 3b, and 3c. Leave the card inside the slot.
Once the card is powered down wait 10 minutes for the line card to cool down below a temperature suitable
to touch
Step 2
Disconnect any cables from the card.
a) Identify the type of line card and its slot number. Write this information down before you disconnect the
cables. You'll need this information when you reinstall the line cards.
b) Identify the line card cable and its port connection. Label the cable with this information.
c) Starting with the port of the line card farthest from the cable management bracket, disconnect the interface
cable connectors from each of the line card ports.
d) Carefully remove the cables from the cable-management bracket attached to the front panel of the line
card.
e) (Optional) Use the 6-inch long number 2 Phillips screwdriver to a torque of 10 +/–1 in-lb to loosen the
captive screw that secures the cable-management bracket to the line card and remove the cable-management
bracket from the line card.
f) Carefully remove the cables from the horizontal cable management tray at the top of the chassis or side
cable management brackets (Cisco ASR 9006 Router) and carefully place the cable bundle out of the way.
Step 3
Remove the card:
a) Use the 6-inch long number 2 Phillips screwdriver to loosen the captive screws at each end of the card
front panel.
b) On the FC and LC push in both ejector lever release buttons.
c) Pivot the ejector levers to unseat the card from the backplane connector.
d) Slide the card out of the slot and place it directly into an antistatic bag or other ESD-preventive container.
