Installing and Replacing Hardware
Warning
Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a line card or a fan. Exposed
circuitry could constitute an energy hazard.
Warning
Do not stare into the beam or view it directly with optical instruments.
Note All cards must be fully seated in the chassis. A push on the faceplate of each card is required for the card
to be fully seated.
6.3.4.1 Installing an OC-3c/OC-3c NI-2 Card
Complete the following steps to install an OC-3c/OC-3c NI-2 card in the chassis. It is important that you
complete each step before moving on to the next step.
Step 1 Connect a grounding strap to the ESD grounding jack that is located on the top right of the Cisco 6260
card cage.
Step 2 Inspect the NI-2 card. Verify that the daughterboard is fully seated on the main board.
Step 3 Verify that slots 10 and 11 of the chassis have no bent pins.
Step 4 Vertically align the card edge with the card guides at the top and bottom of slot 10 in the chassis.
Figure 6-5 shows the NI-2 installation in a Cisco 6260 chassis.
Step 5 Lift up on the ejector levers and gently apply pressure to the bottom of the faceplate while pushing the
card into the slot.
Step 6 Push on the faceplate of each card to fully seat the card.
Step 7 Press down on the ejector levers to secure the card and connect it to the backplane.
Step 8 Use a flat-head screwdriver to turn the locking tab so that it overlaps the NI-2 card to prevent inadvertent
dislodging, as shown in Figure 6-6.
Step 9 Verify that the STATUS, ACTIVE, and POWER LEDs on the NI-2 card are solid green after the self-test
is complete. This self-test procedure takes several minutes. If the STATUS LEDs are not green after the
self-test, see Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting,” for troubleshooting procedures.
Step 10 Perform a software update if the STATUS LED on the NI-2 card is flashing. Refer to the appropriate
software guide for your chassis for software upgrade procedures.
Step 11 Attach the RX cable from the ATM switch to the TRNK 1 TX connector in the inset on the NI-2 card.
See Figure 1-18 for the OC-3c network interface connection location.
Step 12 Attach the TX cable from the ATM switch to the TRNK 1 RX connector in the inset on the NI-2 card.
See Figure 1-18 for the OC-3c network interface connection location.
Note To cable the chassis for OC-3c subtending, see the installation chapter in this guide that
corresponds to your configuration.
Step 13 Connect the Ethernet to the management network.
Step 14 Connect a VT100-compatible terminal to the NI-2 card CNSL connector.
