Field-Replaceable Units
The vEdge 1000 router is a stiff sheet-metal structure that houses the hardware components. Field-replaceable
units (FRUs) are hardware components that you can remove and replace at your site. The table below lists
the FRUs in the vEdge 1000 router.

The transceivers in the router are hot-removable and hot-insertable. You can remove and replace them without
powering off the router or disrupting router functions.
USB Dongle for Cellular Connection
You can add a third-party LTE USB dongle to a vEdge 1000 router to allow the router to connect to 4G cellular
networks.
Supported USB Dongles
The Viptela software supports the following LTE USB dongles:
• Feeney Wireless/Novatel Skyus 4G LTE with MC7354 modem
• Connected IO LT1000 with MC7350 modem
Plug the USB Dongle into the vEdge Router
Before you connect the USB dongle to the vEdge router and establish a cellular connection, plug the SIM
card and the antennas into the dongle, as described in the documentation for the dongle.
To plug the USB dongle into the vEdge router:
• For the Skyus 4G LTE dongle, plug one end of the dongle into the USB port on the router and the other
end into the mini USB port on the dongle.
• For the Connected IO dongle, plug the USB mini type B connector into the USB port on the router and
plug the USB micro type B connector into a power outlet.
If you plug in an LTE USB dongle after you have enabled the USB controller, or if you hot swap an LTE
USB dongle after you have enabled the USB controller, you must reboot the router in order for the USB
dongle to be recognized.
