CAUTION: Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when you are
inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents
accidental exposure to laser light.
6. Arrange the cable to prevent it from dislodging or developing stress points. Secure the cable so that
it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place excess cable out of the way in a
neatly coiled loop.
CAUTION: Avoid bending a 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. Loosen the captive screw on each side of the MIC faceplate.
8. Pull the ejector levers on each side of MIC you are removing away from the router. Pulling the
ejector levers disconnects the MIC from the chassis.
9. Grasp the handles on the MIC faceplate, and slide the MIC out of the chassis. Place the MIC in the
electrostatic bag or on the antistatic mat.
10. If you are not reinstalling a MIC into the emptied MIC slot within a short time, install a blank MIC
panel over the slot to maintain proper airflow in the chassis card cage.
