Note
For detailed information about SIP and SPA software commands such as activating and deactivating
SIPs, prepare for online insertion and removal of SPAs, and activate and deactivate configuration
examples, see
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers SIP and SPA Hardware Installation
Guide
.
Note
The embedded shared port adapter interface processor (SIP) on the Cisco ASR 1002 Router and Cisco
ASR 1002-F Router do not support online insertion and removal. However, the SPAs on the Cisco
embedded services processors do support online insertion and removal.
Caution
When removing or replacing SPAs, make certain that all the screw fasteners on each card and each SIP
are screwed in tightly to prevent accidental removal of another card. Each SIP has two screw fasteners
per slot and each SPA has two screw fasteners.
We suggest you have the following tools and parts readily available for installation of the SIPs and SPAs:
•
Number 2 Phillips or a 3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver
•
Shared port adapter interface processor (SIP)
•
Shared port adapters (SPAs)
•
Cables
•
Your own ESD-prevention equipment or the disposable grounding wrist strap included with all
upgrade kits, field-replaceable units (FRUs), and spares
•
Antistatic mat or surface, or static shielding bag
If you need additional equipment, contact a service representative for ordering information.
Electrostatic Discharge Prevention
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damages equipment and impairs electrical circuitry. ESD occurs when
printed circuit boards are improperly handled and results in complete or intermittent failures.
