Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers Chapter 2 Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers Step 2 Step 3 Install the blank faceplate. • (For blank faceplates with mounting screws) Align the captive screws with the screw holes on the chassis. Using either a number 1 Phillips screwdriver or a small flat-blade screwdriver, tighten the captive screws until the blank faceplate is flush with the chassis. • (For blank faceplates with tabs) Align the blank faceplate tabs with the slots on the chassis. Press the blank faceplate against the chassis until the tabs pop into place. The blank faceplate is flush with the chassis when properly installed. Continue with hardware installation tasks. Removing Blank Faceplates from Cisco Access Routers To remove blank network module faceplates, perform the following steps: Step 1 Step 2 Determine which type of blank network module faceplate you are using. (See Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2.) Remove the blank faceplate. • (For blank faceplates with mounting screws) Using either a number 1 Phillips screwdriver or a small flat-blade screwdriver, unscrew the captive screws and remove the blank faceplate from the chassis slot you plan to use. • (For blank faceplates with tabs) Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, release the snap-lock tab on the left side of the faceplate (see Figure 2-2). The faceplate pops out when the tab is released. Tip Save blank faceplates for future use. Step 3 Continue with hardware installation tasks. Preparing Cisco Router Slots for Network Module Installation Several Cisco access routers have flexible network module slots to support all four Cisco network module form factors. Before installing a network module, you must prepare the slot for the network module's particular form factor. The following Cisco access routers may require network module slot preparation before installation of the network module: • Cisco 2821 and 2851 routers • Cisco 3660 routers (single-wide and double-wide network modules only) • Cisco 3700 series routers (single-wide and double-wide network modules only) • Cisco 3800 series routers Tip For an introduction to Cisco network module form factors, see the "Introduction to Cisco Network Module Form Factors" section on page 1-1.
