Installation Overview

Depending on your circumstances, you might need to install a new port adapter in a Cisco uBR7200
series universal broadband router or replace a failed port adapter in the field. In either case, no tools
are necessary; all port adapters available for Cisco uBR7200 series routers connect directly to the
router midplane and are locked into position by a port adapter retention clip (Cisco uBR7246) or
lever (Cisco uBR7223). When removing and replacing a port adapter, you will need an antistatic mat
onto which you can place a removed port adapter and an antistatic container into which you can place
a failed port adapter for shipment back to the factory.
