Chapter 1 Cisco XR 12410 Router Overview
Horizontal Cable Management Bracket
Ports and connectors on the line card front panels provide interfaces for external connections. Line cards communicate with the RP and exchange packet data with each other through the switch fabric cards.
Caution Any unoccupied card slot in the line card and RP card cage must have a blank filler panel installed to meet electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements and to ensure proper air flow through the chassis. Also, if the front panel of a line card does not completely fill the card slot opening, a narrow card filler panel must be installed to meet the EMC requirements.
A cable management bracket on the front panel of each line card helps to organize the interface cables connected to that line card.
Note The Cisco XR 12410 router support online insertion and removal (OIR), allowing you to remove and replace a card while the router remains powered on.

The horizontal cable management bracket is directly above the line card and RP card cage (Figure
Caution Excessive bending of interface cables can damage the cables.
