Replace an FPC in an M40e or M160 Router

Do not leave a transceiver uncovered. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents accidental exposure to laser light.

Avoid bending fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend radius. An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable and cause problems that are difficult to diagnose.

6.If you need to remove or replace PICs in an M40e-FPC1 or M40e-FPC2 or on an

M160 router, perform the removal or replacement now, before removing the FPC from the chassis. For instructions, see the M40e Internet Router Hardware Guide or

M160 Internet Router Hardware Guide. If removing or replacing PICs in an M40e-FPC, wait until Step 11.

7.Unscrew the thumbscrews at the top and bottom of the FPC.

8.Pull the ends of the ejector levers, which are adjacent to the thumbscrews, away from the face of the FPC until they are nearly perpendicular to it (see Figure 11, which shows an M160 router).

9.Grasp the FPC with both hands and slide it about halfway out of the chassis.

10.Place one hand under the FPC to support it and slide it completely out of the chassis. Set the FPC on the antistatic foam mat prepared in Step 1.

The weight of the FPC is concentrated in the back end. Be prepared to accept the full weight—up to 15 lb (6.8 kg)—as you slide the FPC out of the chassis.

Do not hold the FPC by the ejector levers, bus bars, or edge connectors. They cannot support its weight.

To avoid damaging any components, use extra care when laying an M40e-FPC component-side down on the antistatic mat, particularly if the mat is not made of foam.

Do not stack the FPC on top of or under any other component.

11.If removing or replacing PICs on an M40e-FPC, see the instructions in “Replace a PIC in an M40e-FPC” on page 20.
