Removing or Replacing Cisco Interface Cards for Cisco Access Routers Installing Cisco Interface Cards in Cisco Access Routers Removing or Replacing Cisco Interface Cards for Cisco Access Routers Caution WAN interface cards and voice interface cards are not interchangeable. To prevent damage to the card, confirm that you are installing the correct type of interface card for the slot or network module you intend to use. To remove or replace an interface card from a Cisco access router, perform these steps: Step 1 Turn off electrical power to the router. Leave the power cable plugged in to channel ESD voltages to ground. (For the Cisco MWR 1941-DC router) Turn off power by turning the DC power source circuit breaker to OFF. Tape the circuit breaker in the OFF position. To channel ESD voltages to ground, do not remove the wire from the ground lug. Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position. Statement 7 Step 2 Remove all network cables, including telephone cables, from the router. Caution To prevent damage to the interface card, turn off electrical power and disconnect network cables from the chassis before inserting an interface card into an installed network module or router slot. Timesaver To make reconnection of network interface cables easier, label the cables or prepare a network cabling diagram before removing network interface cables from the network module. Step 3 Step 4 Using a number 1 Phillips or flat-blade screwdriver, loosen the captive mounting screws on the interface card faceplate. Using the faceplate edges, pull the interface card from the router slot. Tip Use the thumbscrews to pull the interface card faceplate away from the router chassis until you can grip the faceplate with your fingers. Caution Do not touch the interface card board. Handle the interface card by the edges of the faceplate to reduce the risk of damage to the card. Step 5 Take one of the following actions: • If you are replacing the interface card, use the procedures described in the "Installing Cisco Interface Cards in Cisco Access Routers" section on page 5.
