Installing Cisco Network Modules in Cisco Access Routers
Step 5
Proceed with hardware configuration tasks as listed in
Table 2-3
and
Table 2-4
.
Removing Slot Dividers
Slot dividers are removed to permit use of double-wide and extended double-wide network modules in
modular router slots. To determine whether you need to install or remove slot dividers on your Cisco
access router, see
Table 2-3
and
Table 2-4
.
To remove slot dividers from network module slots, perform the following steps:
Step 1
Remove any installed network modules, blank faceplates, and slot adapters from the router slot you plan
to use.
Step 2
Loosen the retention screw on the front of the slot divider.
Step 3
Pull the slot divider straight out of the network module slot.
Step 4
Proceed with hardware configuration tasks as listed in
Table 2-3
and
Table 2-4
.
Installing Slot Adapters
Slot adapters (see
Figure 2-7
) are used to customize network module slots for different Cisco network
module form factors. Slot adapters are used on the following Cisco access routers:
•
Cisco 2821
•
Cisco 2851
•
Cisco 3800 series
Slot adapters permit installation of extension voice modules (on Cisco 3800 series routers only),
single-wide, and extended single-wide network modules in modular router slots.
To determine whether you need to install or remove slot adapters on your Cisco access router, see
Table 2-3
and
Table 2-4
