9. Insert the appropriate cables into the cable connectors on the MIC.
10. Arrange each cable to prevent the cable from dislodging or developing stress points. Secure the cable
so that it is not supporting its own weight as it hangs to the floor. Place excess cable out of the way in
a neatly coiled loop.
CAUTION: Do not let fiber-optic cables hang free from the connector. Do not
allow the fastened loops of a cable to dangle, which stresses the cable at the
fastening point.
CAUTION: Avoid bending a fiber-optic cable beyond its minimum bend radius.
An arc smaller than a few inches in diameter can damage the cable and cause
problems that are difficult to diagnose.
11. Use one of the following methods to bring the MIC online:
•
Press its online/offline button. Use a narrow-ended tool that fits inside the opening that leads to the
button. Press the button until the MIC OK/FAIL LED lights green.
•
Issue the following CLI command:
user@host> request chassis mic fpc-slot mpc-slot mic-slot mic-slot online
The normal functioning status LED confirms that the MIC is online. You can also verify correct MIC
functioning by issuing the show chassis fpc pic-status command described in “Maintaining MX960
MICs” on page 612.
