Installing an MX960 PIC

To install a PIC (see Figure 147 on page
1. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD grounding strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other
end of the strap to the ESD point on the chassis.
2. If the PIC uses fiber-optic cable, verify that a rubber safety cap is over each transceiver on the faceplate.
Install a cap if necessary.
3. Align the notches in the connector at the rear of the PIC with the notches in the PIC slot in the FPC

are inserting or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents
accidental exposure to laser light.

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. Placing fasteners on the loop helps to maintain its
shape.
