Removing an MX960 MPC

When you remove an MPC, the router continues to function, although the MIC interfaces
installed on the MPC being removed no longer function.
An MPC installs vertically 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 remove an MPC (see Figure 157 on page

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.
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.
