Chapter 3 Installing the Cisco XR 12410 Router

Connecting Line Card Network Interface Cables

Caution Unoccupied card slots in the line card and RP card cage must have a blank filler panel installed for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and to ensure proper air flow through the chassis.

Step 2 Repeat Step 2 for each line card.

Caution Unoccupied card slots must have a blank filler panel installed for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and to ensure proper air flow through the chassis. If the faceplate of a line card does not completely fill the card slot opening, a narrow card filler panel must be installed for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and to ensure proper air flow through the chassis.

Step 3 Go to the “Connecting Line Card Network Interface Cables” section on page 3-34 to connect the network interface cables.

Connecting Line Card Network Interface Cables

This section describes how to route the network interface cables through the router cable-management system and attach the network interface cables to the line card ports.

This procedure uses an 8-port fiber-optic Fast Ethernet card as an example to describe how to attach a network interface cable to a line card port and route the cable through the cable-management system. Depending on which line cards are installed in your system, your cable connection procedure might differ slightly from this example. For cable connection information for your specific line card, refer to the installation and configuration note for that line card.
