Step 6
When one end of the DIMM is released from the socket, grasp each end of the DIMM with your thumb
and forefinger and pull the DIMM completely out of the socket. Handle only the edges of the DIMM;
avoid touching the memory module, pins, and the metal traces (the metal fingers along the connector
edge of the DIMM) along the socket edge.
Step 7
Place the DIMM in an antistatic bag to protect it from ESD damage.
Step 8
Repeat Step 8 through Step 10 for the remaining DIMMs if required for your upgrade.
This completes the steps for removing the Cisco ASR 1001 Router DIMMs from the chassis.
Replacing the Cisco ASR 1001 Router DIMM
This section lists the steps to replace a DIMM into the Cisco ASR 1001 Router.
Step 1
Place the DIMM on an antistatic mat or pad while wearing an antistatic device, such as a wrist strap.
Caution
DIMMs are sensitive components that can be shorted by mishandling; they are susceptible to ESD
damage. Handle the DIMM by the edges only, and avoid touching the pins.
Step 2
Remove the new DIMM from the antistatic bag.
