Warning
Filler cards serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and
currents inside the chassis; they contain EMI that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the
flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards and faceplates are
in place.
Statement 156
Caution Always use the supplied ESD wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband
cable into the ESD jack located on the lower right outside edge of the shelf assembly and ensure the shelf
assembly is properly grounded.
Step 1 Open the card ejectors.
Step 2 Slide the card along the guide rails into the correct slot.
Step 3 Close the ejectors.
Step 4 Repeat for any remaining unused card slots.
Step 5 When you log into CTC, verify that the detectable filler card appears properly in CTC node view. A
non-detectable filler card does not appear in CTC node view.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
Purpose This procedure explains how to install the filler cards in any unused traffic
or AIC-I card slots (Slots 1 through 6, 9, and 12 through 17). A filler card
consists of a card with a faceplate attached.
Note There are two types of filler cards. One is not detectable by CTC
and has no label on its faceplate. The other is detectable by CTC
and has the label FILLER on its faceplate.
Filler cards aid in maintaining proper air flow and electromagnetic
interference (EMI) requirements.
