Installing a NetIron XMR 32000 router
4. With the ejectors rotated away from the module faceplate, insert the module into the slot (refer to Table 26) and slide the module
along the card guide until the ejectors rotate towards the module faceplate.
NOTE
When inserting the module into the router, make sure that the faceplate doesn’t overlap with the faceplate of an adjacent
interface module.
5. Rotate the ejectors flush with the module faceplate to seat the module in the backplane. Modules have a snug fit for maximum
EMI protection.

6. Tighten the screws at each end of the module faceplate by pushing them in and turning them clockwise. Complete the tightening
process using the flat blade screwdriver.
Using the insertion or extraction tool
Due to the high density of cables that the NetIron XMR 32000 router can support, it may be difficult to insert and remove the RJ45 and
optical connectors. An insertion or extraction tool has been provided in the NetIron XMR 32000 accessory kit to make this task easier.
Refer to Figure 119.
