Chapter 5 Installing and Removing a PLIM or a SIP
Handling PLIM or SIP
A PLIM impedance carrier must be installed in each empty PLIM slot in the
Cisco ASR 14000 Series Router chassis (see Figure 5-2). The impedance carrier preserves the integrity
of the chassis and is required for EMI compliance and proper cooling in the chassis.
