Installing an SPU and an SPE
CAUTION:
•
SPUs are not hot swappable. Make sure the router is powered off before installing an SPU.
•
SPEs are hot swappable. However, hot-swapping an SPE is not allowed while an MPU-100-X1
is starting up.
•
Do not perform any active/standby SPE switchover operations when the system LED on an MPU
flashes yellow and green alternatively.
The MSR5620 router has SPUs integrated on it and do not require SPU installation.
The MSR 56-60 and MSR 56-80 routers support the SPU-100, SPU-200, SPU-300, SPU-100-X1,
SPU-200-X1, SPU-400-X1, SPU-600-X1, SPE-S1, and SPE-S3.
SPEs and SPU-600-X1 can be used together only with an MPU-100-X1.
To use an SPU-600-X1, a minimum of one SPE is required.
The SPEs must be the same model if two SPEs are installed on an SPU-600-X1.
A minimum of two power modules are required if an SPU-600-X1 is installed on the router.
HMIM interface modules managed by an SPE-S1 support Layer 2 forwarding across only HMIM
interface modules managed by this SPE-S1. HMIM interface modules managed by an SPE-S3 do
not support Layer 2 forwarding across HMIM interface modules.
Installing an SPU-100/200/300/100-X1/200-X1/400-X1
1.
Insert the SPU into the slot along the guide rails, and push the ejector levers inward.
2.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the captive screws to secure the SPU to the router.
