Installing an MX240 FPC

286
When the FPC is out of the chassis, do not hold it by the ejector handles,
bus bars, or edge connectors. They cannot support its weight.
Do not stack FPCs on top of one another after removal. Place each one
individually in an electrostatic bag or on its own antistatic mat on a flat,
stable surface.
If necessary, remove each installed PIC from the FPC.
10.
After you remove each PIC, immediately place it on an antistatic mat or in an
11.
electrostatic bag.
If you are not reinstalling an FPC into the emptied DPC slots within a short time, install
12.
a blank DPC panel over each slot to maintain proper airflow in the card cage.
CAUTION: After removing an FPC from the chassis, wait at least 30
seconds before reinserting it or inserting an FPC into a different slot.

An FPC takes up two DPC slots on the MX240 router. One FPC can be installed horizontally
in the front of the router. The FPCs are hot-insertable and hot-removable. A fully
configured FPC can weigh up to 18 lb (8.2 kg). Be prepared to accept its full weight.
To install an FPC (see Figure 93 on page
Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the
1.
ESD points on the chassis.
Place the FPC on an antistatic mat.
2.
Take each PIC to be installed in the replacement FPC out of its electrostatic bag and
3.
identify the slot on the FPC where it will be connected.
Verify that each fiber-optic PIC has a rubber safety cap covering the PIC transceiver.
4.
If it does not, cover the transceiver with a safety cap.
