Maintaining Your Cisco 7507 and Cisco 7507-MX
Router
Your Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7507-MX router is configured to your order and is ready for installation and
startup when it leaves the factory. After you install and configure your router, you might have to perform
specific maintenance procedures and operations to ensure that the router is operating properly, to
upgrade specific system components, or to replace components with spare parts or field-replaceable
units (FRUs). This chapter describes procedures and maintenance operations required to maintain your
Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7507-MX router; it includes procedures for installing, adding, and replacing
internal router components and replaceable spare parts.
Note
Detailed, up-to-date instructions (called configuration notes) are available on Cisco.com.
The replaceable system components fall into two categories: those that support online insertion and
removal (OIR) and those that do not (requiring you to turn off the system power before replacement).
For example, you can remove interface processors and replace them while the system is operating;
however, you must shut down the system power before removing the RSP and the single power supply
in a Cisco 7507 or Cisco 7507-MX with one power supply installed, or before accessing the chassis
interior for any other reason.
This chapter provides specific component replacement instructions for upgrading, removing, or
replacing the following components:
•
Chassis panels
•
Blower module assembly
•
Chassis interface (CI) board
•
Air filter
•
LED board
•
Power supply removal (power supply installation is discussed in the
“Installing Cisco 7507 and
Cisco 7507-MX Power Supplies” section on page 3-14
)
Caution
To help prevent problems, before performing any procedures in this chapter, review the
“Safety
Recommendations” section on page 2-2
