screw on each end of the blade and then a Middle Retaining Bolt. You must disengage all three
before the blade can be removed from the chassis. You will need a 3/16” socket to disengage the
bolt (included in the kit shipped with your router).
To remove an existing blade from the router chassis
1. Power down the Ultrix router and disconnect it from mains power.
2. Ensure all cabling is removed from the ports on the I/O Blade.
3. Disengage the retaining screws on either end of the I/O Blade. Refer to Figure 3 for screw
locations.
 We strongly recommend to disengage each screw until its head is approximately 0.25” away from
the faceplate. Do not fully extract the screws from the chassis.

4. From the Ultrix rear panel, unfasten the Middle Retaining Bolt. Note that this bolt is not
removable but it does extract the blade. Refer to Figure 4 for the bolt location on the rear
panel.

5. Grasp the blade with both hands and gently pull it towards you to remove it from the router
backplane.
Installing an ULTRIX-MODX-IO Blade into the Router Chassis
The ULTRIX-MODX-IO blade is a complete unit. There are two screws and one bolt that affix the
blade to the chassis: a screw on each end of the blade and a Middle Retaining Bolt.
To install an ULTRIX-MODX-IO blade into the router chassis
1. Using the card guides inside the chassis, gently slide the ULTRIX-MODX-IO blade into the chassis
while lifting up slightly to take the weight.
Caution — Steps must be followed in the presented order. Failing to do so can damage the blade.
Caution — Ensure the Middle Retaining Bolt is fully unfastened before attempting to remove the blade
from the chassis. While the bolt is not removable and serves as a threaded insertion and extraction tool.
It should be free to move in and out a few millimeters in its socket once unfastened.
ESD Susceptibility — Static discharge can cause serious damage to sensitive semi-conductor
devices. Avoid handling circuit blades in high static environments such as carpeted areas and when
synthetic fiber clothing is worn. Always exercise proper grounding precautions when working on circuit
blades and related equipment.
