Caution Do not connect a WAN, telephone or fax cable to the card until you have completed the installation procedure.
Card Installation
Follow these steps to insert a card in the router:
Step1 Make sure the router is turned off and is disconnected from AC power.
Caution Power must be removed from the system prior to installing or removing WICs or VICs to avoid damaging them.
When WICs or VICs are pushed into or pulled out of a router that is powered up, there is a very good chance that
they could be damaged electrically and will no longer function.
Step2 Loosen the thumbscrews on the WIC or VIC slot cover, as shown in Figure5.
Figure5 Removing a WIC or VIC Slot Cover
You should be able to loosen the screws using your fingers; however, if the screws are very tight, you may need to use a Phillips
screwdriver.
Step3 Remove the metal plate that covers the card slot.
Step4 Hold the card by the edges on either side of the card front panel, and line up the card edges with the guides inside the
card slot, as shown in Figure 6.
Figure6 Inserting a WIC or VIC in the Router
Step5 Insert the card in the slot, and gently push it into the router until the front panel of the card is flush with the router.
