Chapter 4 Installing and Removing Line Cards, PLIMs, and Associated Components

How to Install or Remove an MSC, FP, or LSP

Step 6 Place the removed line card on an antistatic mat, or immediately place it in an antistatic bag if you plan to return it to the factory.

Step 7 If the MSC slot is to remain empty, install an MSC impedance carrier to keep dust from the chassis and maintain proper airflow through the MSC compartment.

Step 8 Use a screwdriver to tighten the captive screws next to each impedance carrier ejector lever to ensure proper EMI shielding and to maintain proper airflow throughout the chassis.

What to Do Next

If you did not place the line card in an antistatic bag, do so now for storage and future use.
