Replace Hardware Components
Tools and Parts Required
Table 16: Tools and Parts Required
Most of the router's hardware components are field-replaceable units (FRUs), which
means that you can remove and replace them yourself. When you need to replace a
router component, contact your customer support or sales representative to order the
field-replaceable unit (FRU) that contains the component. For instructions, see "Return the
Router or Its Components" on page 163. For a list of the FRUs on the M5 and M10 routers,
see "Field-Replaceable Units (FRUs)" on page 3.
