Preparing A Full-Height Line Card Slot - Cisco ASR 5000 Installation Manual

Preparing a Full-height Line Card Slot

Preparing a Full-height Line Card Slot
The full-height XGLC requires two line card slots: an upper chassis slot and the lower chassis slot directly
beneath it. For example, if a PSC2 is installed in slot 1, its corresponding XGLC would be installed in slots
17 and 33.
Important
The procedure for modifying two half-height card slots to accept the full-height XGLC is described in the
Preparing A Full-Height Card Slot appendix. Complete the procedures described in that appendix before
attempting to install the XGLC in the ASR 5000 chassis.
Installing the XGLC
Caution During installation, maintenance, and/or removal, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage to
the components. Failure to do so could result in damage to sensitive electronic components and potentially
void your warranty.
Step 1
Identify the full-height chassis slot in which the line card will be installed.
Step 2 Slide the interlock switch fully downward on the card. Flip the ejector levers outward and away from the card's front
panel.
Step 3 Properly support the weight of the card and align it with the upper and lower card guides of the chassis slot. Gently slide
the card into the slot until the levers touch the chassis frame.
