Removing and Replacing Cards from the Chassis
Step3 Install the captive screw in each ejector lever into the screw hole in the power tray frame (Figure5-16
or Figure 5-17).
Step4 Use the 6-inch long number 2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the two ejector screws to a torque of 10 +/-1
in-lb to secure the ejectors and to secure the tray to its mating connector.
Step5 Install and tighten two screws through the power tray mounting ears on each side into the screw holes in
the chassis mounting ears to secure the tray to the chassis.
Removing and Replacing Cards from the Chassis
This section describes the procedures for removing and installing an RSP card, RP card, FC, or LC.
See the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router SIP and SPA Hardware Installation Guide
for information about removing and installing SIP and SPA cards.
For a information about the router components and slot numbering for the CiscoASR 9010 Router,
Cisco ASR 9006 Router, and CiscoASR 9904 Router, see Removing RSP Cards and Line Cards
from the Cisco ASR 9010 Router, Cisco ASR 9006 Router, and Cisco ASR 9904 Router, page2-23.
For a information about the router components and slot numbering for the CiscoASR 9922 Router
and Cisco ASR 9912 Router, see Removing RP Cards, Fabric Cards, and Line Cards from the Cisco
ASR 9922 Router and Cisco ASR 9912 Router, page2-31.
Caution Handle all cards by the metal card carrier edges only; avoid touching the board or any connector pins.
After removing a card, carefully place it in an antistatic bag or similar environment to protect it from
ESD and dust in the optic ports (fiber-optic line cards).
Caution Be careful to avoid damaging the EMI gasket that runs along the full height of the card front panel edges.
Damage to the EMI gasket can affect the ability of your system to meet EMI requirements.
Caution To avoid damaging card mechanical components, never carry an RSP card, RP card, FC, or LC by the
captive installation screws or ejector levers. Doing so can damage these components and cause card
insertion problems.
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 OIR Monitoring, page 5-3 for more information.
