Removing and Installing the Front Covers and Bezel
Extenders on Original Cisco 12010 Series Routers
The front covers are fastened to the chassis by ball studs that insert into clips on
the front of the chassis. The front covers are referred to as snap-on front covers.
The partial front cover on the air filter door is fastened to the air filter door by four
screws inserted from the back side of the air filter door. This partial front cover is
referred to as the air filter door front cover.
Note
Recently released routers have bezel extenders installed on the front cover (bezel)
for the line card and route processor (RP) card cage to bring the cover out an
additional 2 inches (50.8 mm) to allow more room for cables. If your chassis does
not have these extenders and you want to purchase them, contact Cisco sales. (See
the
“Attaching Bezel Extenders to the Front Cover” section on page 7-6
installing the bezel extenders.)
