Installing an MX240 AS MLC
You can install up to five Application Services Modular Line Cards (AS MLCs) horizontally
in the front of the MX240 router. The AS MLCs are hot-insertable and hot-removable.
An empty AS MLC weighs 10.5 lb (4.76 kg). A fully configured AS MLC can weigh up to
15.27 lb (6.93 kg). Be prepared to accept its full weight.
To install an AS MLC (see Figure 101 on page 251):
1. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the
ESD points on the chassis.
2. Place the AS MLC on an antistatic mat.
