Air Filter

The Cisco 12012 is equipped with a serviceable air filter mounted in a hinged tray located
in front of the lower card cage. Do not run the Cisco 12012 without an air filter installed.
You should inspect and clean the air filter once a month (more often in dusty environments).
Procedures for vacuuming and replacing the air filter are contained in the section "Cleaning
and Replacing the Air Filter Assembly" in the chapter "Maintaining the Cisco 12012."

Cable-Management System

The Cisco 12012 cable-management system organizes the interface cables entering and
exiting the system, keeping them free of sharp bends (excessive bending in an interface
cable can cause performance degradation) and out of the way. The Cisco 12012
cable-management system consists of two components: a horizontal cable-management
tray attached to the frame above the upper card cage, and vertical cable-management
brackets, one bracket per line card. (See Figure 1-13.)
The horizontal cable-management tray keeps all of the interface cables organized as the
cables enter the Cisco 12012 from either the left or right side, and directs them down
through the bottom of the tray to the individual line cards.
A vertical cable-management bracket attaches to each line card with two captive screws.
Rubber clips on the bracket hold the interface cables in place, keeping the cables organized.
On line cards with multiple ports, the vertical cable-management bracket keeps the
interface cables organized when you remove and replace the line card. You can unplug the
interface cables from the line card and keep cables clipped in the vertical
cable-management bracket while you remove the bracket from the line card. Then, when
you replace the line card, the interface cables are already broken out to the correct line card
interface connectors.
