Installing A Ptx5000 Pic - Juniper PTX5000 Hardware Manual

CAUTION: 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.
7. Unseat the PIC: Flip the ejector handles outward.
8. Slide the PIC out of the FPC card carrier, and place it in the electrostatic bag or on the antistatic mat.
9. If you are not reinstalling a PIC into the emptied PIC slot within a short time, install a blank PIC panel
over the slot to maintain proper airflow in the FPC card cage.

Installing a PTX5000 PIC

To install a PIC:
1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to
one of the ESD points on the chassis.
2. Verify that there is a rubber safety cap over each fiber-optic transceiver on the faceplate. Install a cap
if necessary.
3. Align the notches in the connector at the rear of the PIC with the notches in the PIC slot in the FPC
and then slide the PIC in until it lodges firmly in the FPC.
CAUTION: Slide the PIC straight into the slot to avoid damaging the components on
the bottom of the PIC.
4. Secure the PIC to the FPC faceplate: Grasp both ejector handles and press them inward to seat the
PIC until the ejectors latch into the FPC.
5. Remove the rubber safety cap from each fiber-optic transceiver and the end of each fiber-optic
cable.
LASER WARNING: Do not look directly into a fiber-optic transceiver or into the ends
of fiber-optic cables. Fiber-optic transceivers and fiber-optic cable connected to a
transceiver emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when inserting or
removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents accidental exposure
to laser light.
6. Insert the appropriate cables into the cable connectors on the PIC.
