PICs are hot-insertable and hot-removable. When you remove a PIC, the router continues
to function, although the PIC interfaces being removed no longer function.
The PICs are located in the FPCs installed in the front of the router. A PIC weighs less
than 2 lb (0.9 kg).
To remove a PIC (see Figure 138 on page
Place an electrostatic bag or antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface to receive the
1.
PIC. If the PIC connects to fiber-optic cable, have ready a rubber safety cap for each
transceiver and cable.
Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the

ESD points on the chassis.
Use one of the following methods to take the PIC offline:

cover each transceiver and the end of each cable with a rubber safety cap.
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
you are inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean
and prevents accidental exposure to laser light.
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.
