Maintaining Your Cisco 7507 and Cisco 7507-MX Router

Your Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7507-MX router is configured to your order and is ready for installation and startup when it leaves the factory. After you install and configure your router, you might have to perform specific maintenance procedures and operations to ensure that the router is operating properly, to upgrade specific system components, or to replace components with spare parts or field-replaceable units (FRUs). This chapter describes procedures and maintenance operations required to maintain your Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7507-MX router; it includes procedures for installing, adding, and replacing internal router components and replaceable spare parts.

Note Detailed, up-to-date instructions (called configuration notes) are available on Cisco.com.

The replaceable system components fall into two categories: those that support online insertion and removal (OIR) and those that do not (requiring you to turn off the system power before replacement). For example, you can remove interface processors and replace them while the system is operating; however, you must shut down the system power before removing the RSP and the single power supply in a Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7507-MX with one power supply installed, or before accessing the chassis interior for any other reason.

This chapter provides specific component replacement instructions for upgrading, removing, or replacing the following components:

•Chassis panels

•Blower module assembly

•Chassis interface (CI) board

•Air filter

•LED board

•Power supply removal (power supply installation is discussed in the “Installing Cisco 7507 and Cisco 7507-MX Power Supplies” section on page 3-14)

Caution To help prevent problems, before performing any procedures in this chapter, review the “Safety Recommendations” section on page 2-2
