Step 1 Identify the RP or line card to be replaced and write down the following
information:
• The RP cable connections on the RP.
• The number and type of RP or line card, so that you will know the location of
the card when you re-install it or the replacement, in the card cage.
• The network interface cable connection ports, on the RP or line card.
Step 2 On RPs and line cards with multiple ports, start with the left port on the card and
disconnect the interface cable connectors from each of the ports.
Step 3 After all of the interface cables are disconnected, loosen the two captive screws
on the cable-management bracket and pull the bracket away from the card.
Step 4 Loosen the two ejector lever captive screws at each end of the card faceplate.
Step 5 Simultaneously pivot the ejector levers away from each other to unseat the card
from the backplane connector (Figure 5-19).
