MX7000 chassis preparation
Before you insert the switch module in the MX7000 chassis, meet the following conditions:
● The chassis is powered up and meets all its specific power requirements.
● The I/O module bay C1 or C2 is empty and ready to receive the switch module.
● If you are replacing an existing switch module, to maintain the proper cooling level in the chassis, insert the replacement
switch module within one minute.
Switch module installation
Insert the switch modules in the MX7000 chassis slots and check that the modules are functioning properly.
NOTE: The switch module works in slots C1 and C2. Do not insert the switch module in any other slot because this action
may damage the chassis or switch module connector pins.
1. Remove the orange plastic protective cover for the backplane connector.
