Router Maintenance 7 Hardware maintenance schedule DANGER The procedures in this manual are for qualified service personnel. Dell routers require minimal maintenance for hardware components. It is recommended that you perform the following regular maintenance tasks: • Clean the fiber-optic connectors on a fiber-optic transceiver port and the connected fiber cable each time you disconnect the cable. • Replace the air filters quarterly. You can also replace the following hardware components, as needed: • All modules (management, interface, and switch fabric). • Fiber-optic transceivers. • AC power supplies. • Fan assemblies. NOTE The management, interface, and switch fabric modules are dedicated, which means that you must install them in Dell routers only. If you install these modules in another Dell device or you install a module intended for another Dell device in a Dell router, the device and modules will not function properly. Replacing a management module For instructions on how to install or replace modules, refer to the module installation section in the installation chapter for your router model. Replacing an interface module You can remove or replace interface modules while the router is powered on and running. For more information on module slot locations, refer to Chapter 1, "Product Overview". For information about how to install a new or replacement module, refer to the installation chapter for your router model. PowerConnect B-MLXe Hardware Installation Guide 161 53-1002111-01
