Installing and Removing the WiMAX Module

Warning To prevent airflow restriction, allow clearance around the ventilation openings to be at least: 1.75 in. (4.4 cm) Statement 1076

Installing the WiMAX Module

The WiMAX module can be installed into any slot of the CGR 1240, however Slot 6 is recommended due to the ease of installing the available cable.

Note Some WiMAX modules are installed into the host router at the factory.

To install the module into an available slot in the Cisco Connected Grid 1120 Router or the Cisco Connected Grid 1240 Router:

Note The module can be hot swapped because module online insertion removal (OIR) is allowed—it is not necessary to power down the router.

Step 1 Before you install (or remove) the Connected Grid WiMAX module from the host router, read the instructions about installing and removing modules in the Hardware Installation Guide of your router.

Step 2 Insert the WiMAX module in the slot.

Step 3 Using a screwdriver, secure the two captive screws into place.
