Removing a Cable on an MPC or MIC
Removing and installing cables on an MPC or MIC does not affect router function.
To remove a cable:
1. Have ready a rubber safety cap for each fiber-optic cable and transceiver.
2. If removing all cables connected to the component, use one of the following methods to take the
component offline:
•
To take an MPC offline:
•
Press and hold the corresponding OFFLINE button on the MPC. The green OK/FAIL LED next to
the button begins to blink. Hold the button down until the LED goes off. Use a narrow-ended tool
that fits inside the opening that leads to the button.
•
Issue the following CLI command:
user@host>request chassis fpc slot slot-number offline
For more information about the command, see the CLI Explorer.
•
To take a MIC offline:
•
Press the OFFLINE button on the MIC. Use a narrow-ended tool that fits inside the opening that
leads to the button. Press and hold the button until the MIC’s OK/FAIL LED goes off (about 5
seconds). Use a narrow-ended tool that fits inside the opening that leads to the button.
•
Issue the following CLI command:
user@host> request chassis pic fpc-slot fpc-slot pic-slot pic-slot offline
For more information about the command, see the CLI Explorer.

cover each transceiver and the end of each cable with a rubber safety cap.
