Cisco NCS 560-4

When installing the cabling to an RSP, we recommend that you leave a service loop of extra cabling
sufficient to allow for fan tray removal.
Note
Close all unused RJ-45 and USB ports on the RSP module using the appropriate dust caps to prevent
dust from accumulating inside the cage. For information on dust caps, see the Installing Dust Caps
section.
Note
Removing an RSP Module
Before you remove an RSP from the router, you should save the current configuration on a TFTP server or
an external USB flash drive, using the copy running-config {ftp | tftp | harddisk:} command. This saves
you time when bringing the module back online.
Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when
servicing. Statement 1034
Warning
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or
view directly with optical instruments. Statement 1051

Procedure
Step 1 Slip on the ESD-preventive wrist strap that was included in the accessory kit.
Step 2 Disconnect any cables attached to the ports on the module.
Step 3 Verify that the captive installation screws on all the modules in the chassis are tight. This step ensures that
the space created by the removed module is maintained.
If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI gaskets on the installed modules will push the
modules toward the open slot, which in turn reduces the size of the opening and makes it difficult
to remove the module.
