Removing and Installing Port Adapters
This chapter describes how to remove the PA-2CE1 port adapter from supported platforms and also how
to install a new or replacement port adapter. This chapter contains the following sections:
Handling Port Adapters, page 3-2
Online Insertion and Removal, page 3-2
Warnings and Cautions, page 3-3
Port Adapter Removal and Installation, page 3-4
Connecting a PA-2CE1 Interface Cable, page 3-7
Setting the PA-2CE1 Jumpers, page 3-8
Each port adapter circuit board is mounted to a metal carrier and is sensitive to electrostatic discharge
(ESD) damage.
Note
When a port adapter slot is not in use, a blank port adapter must fill the empty slot to allow
the router or switch to conform to electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions
requirements and to allow proper airflow across the port adapters. If you plan to install a
new port adapter in a slot that is not in use, you must first remove the blank port adapter.
When powering off the router, wait a minimum of 30 seconds before powering it on again.
