Chapter 2 Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers
Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers
To prepare a network module slot for a single-wide or extended single-wide network module, perform
the tasks listed in
Table 2-3
.
Tip
On Cisco 3800 series routers, extension voice modules can be installed in standard network module
slots. When an extension module is installed in a standard network module slot, treat an extension voice
module like a single-wide network module.
To prepare a network module slot for a double-wide or extended double-wide network module, perform
the tasks listed in
Table 2-4
.
