An MPC installs horizontally in the front of the router. The MPCs are hot-insertable and
hot-removable. A fully configured MPC can weigh up to 18.35 lb (8.3 kg). Be prepared to
accept its full weight.
To install an MPC (see Figure 96 on page
Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the

ESD points on the chassis.
Place the MPC on an antistatic mat.
2.
Take each MIC to be installed in the replacement MPC out of its electrostatic bag and

identify the slot on the MPC where it will be connected.
Verify that each fiber-optic MIC has a rubber safety cap covering the MIC transceiver.

If it does not, cover the transceiver with a safety cap.
Install each MIC into the appropriate slot on the MPC.

the card cage.
CAUTION: When the MPC is out of the chassis, do not hold it by the ejector
handles, bus bars, or edge connectors. They cannot support its weight.
Slide the MPC all the way into the card cage until you feel resistance.

cap from each transceiver and cable.
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.
