Cisco UCS E-Series Server Modules Hardware Installation Guide

Note Alternatively, the Cisco 3900 series routers support OIR for similar server modules and network

modules. (See the “Online Insertion and Removal on a Cisco ISR G2 Router” section on

page 22.)

Step 2 Remove the blank faceplates installed over the slot you intend to use. (See the “Installing and Removing

Blank Faceplates” section on page 17.)

Tip Save blank faceplates for future use.

Step 3 Prepare the slot for the module form factor you are installing. (See the “Preparing Cisco Router Slots for

Server Module Installation” section on page 18.)

Step 4 Align the module with the guides in the chassis walls or slot divider and slide it gently into the slot.
