Cisco Systems 6509-NEB, OSR-7609 manual Installing the Supervisor Engine

Replacing the Supervisor Engine

Step 3 Loosen the two captive installation screws on the supervisor engine.

Step 4 Place your thumbs on the ejector levers located at the top and bottom of the supervisor engine, and simultaneously rotate the levers outward to unseat the supervisor engine from the backplane connector.

Step 5 Grasp the edges of the supervisor engine, and slide the supervisor engine straight out of the slot. Do not touch the module circuitry.

Step 6 Place the supervisor engine on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam.

Step 7 If the slot is to remain empty, install a module filler plate to keep dust out of the chassis and to maintain proper airflow through the chassis.

Installing the Supervisor Engine

This section describes how to install the Supervisor Engine 720 or the Supervisor Engine 32 in the Catalyst 6509-NEB switch and the Cisco OSR-7609 Router.

Caution To prevent ESD damage, handle modules by the carrier edges only.

Note The Supervisor Engine 720 or Supervisor Engine 32 must be installed in slot 5 or 6 of the Catalyst 6509NEB or Cisco OSR7609 chassis.

To install the supervisor engine in the chassis, perform these steps:

Step 1 Choose a slot for the supervisor engine.

Step 2 Verify that there is enough clearance to accommodate any interface equipment that you will connect directly to the supervisor engine ports. If possible, place modules between empty slots that contain only module filler plates.

Step 3 Verify that the captive installation screws are tightened on all modules installed in the chassis. This assures that the EMI gaskets on all modules are fully compressed in order to maximize the opening space for the new module or the replacement module.

Note If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI gaskets on the installed modules will push adjacent modules toward the open slot, reducing the opening size and making it difficult to install the replacement module.

Step 4 Remove the module filler plate by removing the two Phillips pan-head screws from the filler plate. To remove a module, see the “Removing the Supervisor Engine” section on page 17.

Step 5 Fully open both ejector levers on the supervisor engine. (See Figure 15.)

Step 6 Position the supervisor engine in the slot. (See Figure 15.) Make sure that you align the sides of the module carrier with the slot guides on the top and bottom of the slot.

Step 7 Carefully slide the supervisor engine into the slot until the EMI gasket along the right edge of the supervisor engine makes contact with the module in the slot adjacent to it and both ejector levers have closed to approximately 45 degrees with respect to the supervisor engine faceplate. (See Figure 16.)
