Adding and Removing Devices


This chapter describes the procedures for adding and replacing devices in the Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system.

The chapter contains the following sections:

Safety Warnings

Read the following warnings carefully before performing any of the procedures outlined in this chapter:


This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas. A restricted access area is where access can only gained by service personnel through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.

Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or replace this equipment.

The ports labeled "Ethernet," "10BaseT," "Token Ring," "Console," and "AUX" are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Because the BRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits.

This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use.

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

We recommend that four people work together to roll the unit down the ramp and to the installation site. By using four people, one positioned at each corner of the unit, you assure the maximum control and facility in moving the unit. The minimum number of people that should be assigned to moving the unit is
four —any fewer and genuine risk and peril to man and equipment may ensue.

The cabinet has a high center of gravity. Use care when moving it.

Installing Patch Panels for an 8-PRI Equipped System

Perform the following steps to install the two additional patch panels that are required for an 8-PRI equipped system:


Step 1   Loosen the screw on the front of patch panel that contains the wire-wrap or RJ-45 connectors.

Step 2   Swing open the front of the patch panel to access the connectors on the midplane.

Step 3   Connect the two 72-1466-xx patch panel cables to the connectors on the patch panel midplane as specified in Table 3-1.

Step 10   Insert and tighten the screws to secure the patch panel to the chassis.

Step 11   Connect the four connectors on the 72-1466-xx patch panel cables to the signal harness connectors (See Table 3-1.)

Removing an Access Server Shelf

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to remove an Access Server Shelf:


Step 1   Turn OFF power to the Switch Shelf that you will remove.

Step 2   Remove the power cable that connects the Access Server Shelf to the AC power strip or DC busbar. Set the power cable aside.


Note If you use DC power, remove the connector to the DC power cable before removing the wires from the terminal block.


Step 3   Remove the two cables that connect the Access Server Shelf to the cable harness. Remove each connector and place the cables with the power cable that you removed.

Step 4   Remove the four screws that fasten the Access Server Shelf to the chassis. (See Figure 3-1.)


Figure 3-1   Removing the Mounting Screws from an Access Server Shelf


Step 5   Grasp the Access Server Shelf securely with both hands, pull it out towards you, and set it aside. (See Figure 3-2.)


Figure 3-2   Removing an Access Server Shelf



Every time that you change the Access Server Shelf population, you must reconfigure every installed Access Server Shelf (including those previously configured).

Installing an Access Server Shelf

This section explains the procedures for adding or replacing a Cisco AS5300 Access Server Shelf in your system.

Cisco ships each Access Server Shelf that you order in its own kit which contains:

  • Access Server Shelf
  • 2 cables (72-1463-xx) and (72-1464-xx) that connect the Access Server Shelf to the cable harness
  • Power cable
  • 1 pair of mounting brackets and their 4 screws
  • 4 screws that attach the mounting brackets to the cabinet mounting rails
  • Documentation for the Access Server Shelf

If you order an Access Server Shelf that is configured for DC power, you will receive the standard ground lug cable kit (800-03990-01) with each Access Server Shelf kit. The ground lug cable kit includes:

  • Ground lug cable (72-1495-xx)
  • 4 M4.0 screws (48-0395-xx)
  • 2 M3.5 screws (48-0415-xx)
  • 2 M5.0 screws (48-0426-xx)

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.


The ports labeled Ethernet, 10BaseT, Serial, Console, and AUX contain safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. PRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. Avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the TNV circuits.

Perform the following steps to add an Access Server Shelf to your system:


Step 1   Unkit your Access Server Shelf package and set the cables near the system for easy installation.

Step 2   Fasten the mounting brackets on the Access Server Shelf. (See Figure 3-3.)


Figure 3-3   Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the Access Server Shelf


Step 3   If your system is configured for DC power, refer to Figure 3-4, and use the two screws (48-0415-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the ground lugs on the left of the Access Server Shelf.


Figure 3-4   DC Ground Lug Cable Attached



Note You may be adding an Access Server Shelf in any of several rack spaces; therefore, the rack space to which you add an Access Server Shelf will not necessarily match the positions shown in the following illustrations.


Step 4   Align the Access Server Shelf with the rack space directly above the uppermost installed Access Server Shelf and slide the Access Server Shelf into the rack space until the mounting brackets contact the cabinet mounting rails. Do not attempt to force the Access Server Shelf beyond this point. (See Figure 3-5.)


Figure 3-5   Aligning and Installing an Access Server Shelf


Step 5   Fasten the Access Server Shelf to the cabinet mounting rails. (See Figure 3-6.)


Figure 3-6   Fastening the Access Server Shelf to the Cabinet Mounting Rails


Step 6   Connect the 72-1463-xx console/Ethernet cable (see Figure 3-7):

    (a). Connect the DB-25 connector on the cable to the cable harness connector that is closest to the Access Server Shelf.

    (b). Connect the three RJ-45 connectors on the cable to the following ports on the Access Server Shelf:

    • AS_CON
    • AS_10/100BT
    • AS_10BT

Step 7   (For 4-PRI units only.) Connect the 72-1464-xx 4-PRI cable (see Figure 3-7):

    (a). Connect the DB-36 connector on the cable to the cable harness connector that is closest to the Access Server Shelf.

    (b). Connect the four RJ-45 connectors on the cable to the Access Server Shelf ports 1 through 4 (AS_PRI 0 through AS_PRI 3).


Figure 3-7   Access Server Shelf Cabled to the Cable Harness (4 PRI)


Step 8   (For 8-PRI units only.) Connect the 72-1492-xx 8-PRI cable (see Figure 3-8):

    (a). Connect the DB-36 connector on the cable to the cable harness connector that is closest to the Access Server Shelf.

    (b). Connect the eight RJ-45 connectors on the cable to the Access Server Shelf ports 1 through 8 (AS_PRI 0 through AS_PRI 7).


Figure 3-8   Access Server Shelf Cabled to the Cable Harness (8 PRI)



  Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

    The Ethernet 10BaseT, serial, console, and auxiliary ports contain safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. PRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. Avoid connecting SELV circuits to TNV circuits.

Step 9   Regarding power connection: you can leave the fuses installed or the breakers closed (as applies to your system) at this point. If you do so, your system can remain operable through this entire installation.

For the highest degree of safety, Cisco recommends that you:

    (a). Turn power OFF on every unit in the power circuit that you will be on. (See Appendix A to determine which units are on a specific power circuit.)

    (b). Open the circuit breakers in the power circuit that your Access Server Shelf will be on or remove those fuses with insulated-handle fuse pullers for that size fuse (as applies to your system).

Step 10   If your system is configured for DC power, refer to Figure 3-9, and use the two screws (48-0395-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the tap angle.


Figure 3-9   DC Ground Lug Cable Attached


Step 11   Connect the power cable:

For AC power:

    (a). Insert the female connector into the three-pronged connector on the lower-right portion of the Access Server Shelf.

    (b). Refer to Table A-1 to find the correct connector, then insert the male connector into the AC power strip with that label.

For DC power:

    (a). Insert the tinned wires into the terminal blocks on the lower-right portion of the Access Server Shelf. Red must go to positive (+), then black must go to negative (-).

    (b). Use a flat-bladed #1 screwdriver to tighten the set-screws that clamp the wire-connectors into the terminal blocks.

    (c). Refer to Table A-1 to find the correct connector, then insert the male connector into the DC busbar with that label.

Step 12   Turn the access server power ON.

Step 13   If you performed Step 9:

    (a). Close the circuit breakers or insert the fuses that you removed with insulated-handle fuse pullers for that size fuse (as applies to your system).

    (b). Turn power ON for every unit in the power circuit. (See Appendix A to determine which units are on a specific power circuit.)

Step 14   Install any additional Access Server Shelves following Step 1 through Step 10.


Note The cable harness connector labels change to reflect the specific location of the Access Server Shelf within the system.



Every time that you change the number of installed Access Server Shelves in the system, you must reconfigure every installed Access Server Shelf (including those previously configured).

Special Procedure for Fully Populated Cisco AccessPath Model 531 Systems

Cisco AccessPath Model 531 systems equipped with 8-PRI-based Access Server Shelves have four patch panels installed in the system cabinet. This allows the system cabinet to contain only 13 Access Server Shelves. The High-End/Extended cabinet in a fully equipped Cisco AccessPath Model 531 systems contains eight Access Server Shelves.

The Access Server Shelves in the High-End/Extended cabinet are installed in their normal configuration (AS15 - AS21, numbered from the bottom up). The twenty-first Access Server Shelf (AS14) is installed at the top of the High-End Extended cabinet.

The twenty-first Access Server Shelf (AS14) installed in the High-End/Extended cabinet must be cabled to connectors J13 and J14 on the signal harness in the primary cabinet. The following two types of extension cables are required to connect Access Server Shelf (AS14) in the High-End/Extended cabinet to the signal harness in the primary cabinet:

  • 36-pin-to-36-pin, straight-through, male-to-female cable
  • 25 pin to 25-pin, straight-through, male-to-female cable

The ports labeled Ethernet, 10BaseT, Serial, Console, and AUX contain safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. PRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. Avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the TNV circuits.

Note      See "Installing an Access Server Shelf" for additional information on installing an Access Server Shelf.


Perform the following steps to add an Access Server Shelf to your system:


Step 1   Unkit your Access Server Shelf package and set the cables near the system for easy installation.

Step 2   Fasten the mounting brackets on the Access Server Shelf.

Step 3   If your system is configured for DC power, use the two screws (48-0415-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the ground lugs on the left of the Access Server Shelf.

Step 4   Align the Access Server Shelf at the top of the High-End Extended cabinet below the patch panels and slide the Access Server Shelf into the rack-space until the mounting brackets contact the cabinet mounting rails. Do not attempt to force the Access Server Shelf beyond this point.

Step 5   Fasten the Access Server Shelf to the cabinet mounting rails.

Step 6   Connect the 72-1463-xx console/Ethernet cable.

Connect the three RJ-45 connectors on the cable to the following ports on the Access Server Shelf:

  • AS_CON
  • AS_10/100BT
  • AS_10BT

Step 7   Connect the 72-1492-xx 8-PRI cable.

Connect the eight RJ-45 connectors on the cable to the Access Server Shelf ports 0 through 7 (AS_PRI 0 through AS_PRI 7).

Step 8   Connect the DB-36 and DB-25 extension cables to cables 72-1492-xx and 72-1463-xx.

Step 9   Route the cables down the cabinet and out through the cable slot at the bottom of the cabinet.

Step 10   Route the cables across and into the cable slot at the bottom of the primary cabinet.

Step 11   Route the cables up to connectors J13 and J14.

Step 12   Connect the DB-36 connector on the extension cable to signal harness connector J13 in the primary cabinet.

Step 13   Connect the DB-25 connector on the extension cable to signal harness connector J14 in the primary cabinet.


  Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

    The Ethernet 10BaseT, serial, console, and auxiliary ports contain safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. PRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. Avoid connecting SELV circuits to TNV circuits.

Step 14   Regarding power connection: you can leave the fuses installed or the breakers closed (as applies to your system) at this point. If you do so, your system can remain operable through this entire installation.

For the highest degree of safety, Cisco recommends that you:

    (a). Turn power OFF on every unit in the power circuit that you will be on. (See Appendix A to determine which units are on a specific power circuit.)

    (b). Open the circuit breakers in the power circuit that your Access Server Shelf will be on or remove those fuses with insulated-handle fuse pullers for that size fuse (as applies to your system).

Step 15   If your system is configured for DC power, use the two screws (48-0395-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the tap angle.

Step 16   Connect the power cable:

For AC power:

    (a). Insert the female connector into the three-pronged connector on the lower-right portion of the Access Server Shelf.

    (b). Refer to Table A-1 to find the correct connector, then insert the male connector into the AC power strip with that label.

For DC power:

    (a). Insert the tinned wires into the terminal blocks on the lower-right portion of the Access Server Shelf. Red must go to positive (+), then black must go to negative (-).

    (b). Use a flat-bladed #1 screwdriver to tighten the set-screws that clamp the wire-connectors into the terminal blocks.

    (c). Refer to Table A-1 to find the correct connector, then insert the male connector into the DC busbar with that label.

Step 17   Turn the Access Server power ON.

Step 18   If you performed Step 9:

    (a). Close the circuit breakers or insert the fuses that you removed with insulated-handle fuse pullers for that size fuse (as applies to your system).

    (b). Turn power ON for every unit in the power circuit. (See Appendix A to determine which units are on a specific power circuit.)

Step 19   Install any additional Access Server Shelves following Step 1 through Step 18.


Every time that you change the number of installed Access Server Shelves in the system, you must reconfigure every installed Access Server Shelf (including those previously configured).

Removing the Switch Shelf

If you are permanently removing the Switch Shelf, the Switch Shelf functionality is replaced by a Cisco PA-12E switch module located in the Router Shelf. You must therefore integrate a Cisco PA-12E switch module with your system according to the procedure in "Installing the Cisco PA-12E/2FE Ethernet Switch Module".

Appendix B describes specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to remove the Switch Shelf from your system:


Step 1   Power OFF the Switch Shelf.

Step 2   Remove the power cables that connect the Switch Shelf to the AC power strip or DC busbar. Set the power cables aside.


Note If you use DC power, remove the connector to the DC power cable before removing the wires from the terminal block.


Step 3   Remove the three cables that connect the Switch Shelf to the cable harness. Remove each connector and place the cables with the power cable that you removed.

Step 4   Remove the four screws that hold the switch shelf to the chassis. (See Figure 3-10.)


Figure 3-10   Removing the Switch Shelf Mounting Screws


Step 5   Grasping the Switch Shelf securely with both hands, pull it out toward you until it is completely clear of the rack space and set it aside. (See Figure 3-11.)


Figure 3-11   Removing the Switch Shelf


If you plan to either ship or transplant the Switch Shelf, follow this step:

Step 6   Remove the brackets from the Switch Shelf and store them. (See Figure 3-12.)


Figure 3-12   Removing the Switch Shelf Mounting Brackets


Installing the Switch Shelf

This section explains the procedures for adding or replacing a Switch Shelf in your system.

Cisco ships each Switch Shelf that you order in its own kit that contains:

  • Switch Shelf
  • 2 cables (72-1462-xx) and (72-1486-xx) that connect the Switch Shelf to the cable harness
  • Power cable
  • 1 pair of mounting brackets and their 4 screws
  • 4 screws that attach the mounting brackets to the cabinet mounting rails
  • Documentation for the Switch Shelf

If you order a Switch Shelf shelf that is configured for DC power, you will receive the standard ground lug cable kit (800-03990-01) with each Switch Shelf kit. The ground lug cable kit includes:

  • Ground lug cable (72-1495-xx)
  • 4 M4.0 screws (48-0395-xx)
  • 2 M3.5 screws (48-0415-xx)
  • 2 M5.0 screws (48-0426-xx)

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to install the Switch Shelf in the Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system:


Step 1   Unkit your Switch Shelf package and set the cables near the system for easy installation.

Step 2   Fasten the mounting brackets to the Switch Shelf as shown in Figure 3-13. You may find that the power connectors are located in a different place on your Switch Shelf.


Note The mounting position is set a few inches from the front of the Switch Shelf; this mounting position is unique to the Switch Shelf.



Figure 3-13   Attaching Mounting Brackets on the Cisco Catalyst 5002 Switch Shelf


Step 3   Refer to Figure 3-14, then align the Switch Shelf with the bottom shelf within the cabinet.

Step 4   Move any cables that may interfere with the insertion of the Switch Shelf. Pay special attention to the cables that connect to the System Controller; if necessary, have a second person hold these cables out of the Switch Shelf installation path while you slide in the Switch Shelf.

Step 5   Slide the Switch Shelf into the rack space until the mounting bracket contacts the cabinet mounting rails. Do not attempt to force the Switch Shelf beyond this point.


Figure 3-14   Aligning and Installing the Switch Shelf



Note The Switch Shelf is deliberately forward-mounted in the Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system for design considerations.


Step 6   Fasten the Switch Shelf to the cabinet mounting rails. (See Figure 3-15.)


Figure 3-15   Fastening the Switch Shelf to the Cabinet Mounting Rails


Step 7   Connect the two 72-1462-xx port cables (see Figure 3-16):

    (a). Insert the DB-50 connector on the first cable into connector J56 on the signal harness.

    (b). Connect the twelve RJ-45 J2 connectors (P1 through 12 in order) into the 12 left-most ports on the Switch Shelf's bottom connector row.

    (c). Insert the DB-50 connector on the second cable into connector J57 on the signal harness.

    (d). Connect the twelve RJ-45 J2 connectors (P13 through 24 in order) into the 12 right-most ports on the Switch Shelf's bottom connector row.

Step 8   Connect the 72-1486-xx supervisor module cable (see Figure 3-16):

    (a). Install the adapter 29-0881-xx that is included in your accessories kit into the console port in the supervisor engine module. This connector is on the left side of the top Switch Shelf connector row.

    (b). Insert the DB-25 connector on the cable into connector J55 on the signal harness. Then attach the cable's three RJ-45 connectors to the Switch Shelf's top connector row:

    • P1: SW_SUP_CON (into the adapter 29-0881-0 that you just installed)
    • P2: SW_SUP_FE1
    • P3: SW_SUP_FE2.

Figure 3-16   Switch Shelf Fully Cabled to the Wiring Harness


Step 9   You can leave the fuses installed or the breakers closed (as applies to your system) at this point. If you do so, your system can remain operable through this entire installation.

For the highest degree of safety, Cisco recommends that you:

    (a). Turn power OFF on every unit in the power circuit that you will be on. (See Appendix A to determine which units are on a specific power circuit.)

    (b). Open the circuit breakers in the power circuit that your Switch Shelf will be on or remove those fuses with insulated-handle fuse pullers for that size fuse (as applies to your system).

Step 10   If your system is configured for DC power, refer to Figure 3-17 (there are variations in each shelf), then:

    (a). Use the two screws (48-0395-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the ground lugs on the left of the Switch Shelf.

    (b). Use the two screws (48-0395-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the tap angle.

For DC power:

    (a). Insert the tinned wires into the terminal blocks on the upper-right portion of the Switch Shelf. Red must go to positive (+), then black must go to negative (-).

    (b). Use a flat-bladed #1 screwdriver to tighten the set-screws that clamp the wire-connectors into the terminal blocks.

    (c). Insert the male connector into the DC busbar connector labeled SW PS1.

    (d). Repeat Steps (a) through (c), inserting the male connector to the DC busbar connector labeled SW PS2.

Step 12   Turn the Switch Shelf power ON.

Step 13   If you performed Step 9:

    (a). Close the circuit breakers or insert the fuses that you removed with insulated-handle fuse pullers for that size fuse (as applies to your system).

    (b). Turn power ON for every unit in the power circuit. (See Appendix A to determine which units are on a specific power circuit.)

Disconnecting the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX) from the Router Shelf

Disconnecting the RJ-45 functionally removes the Fast Ethernet port adapter from the system. You should not remove the port adapter from the slot unless you are transplanting or shipping the port adapter. Router Shelf slot numbering is shown in Figure 3-18.

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.


Figure 3-18   Router Shelf Slot Numbering


Perform the following steps to disconnect (functionally remove) the Fast Ethernet port adapter:


Step 1   Remove the RJ-45 connector from the port adapter. (See Figure 3-19.)


Figure 3-19   Router Shelf Fully Cabled to the Wiring Harness


Step 2   Tie this leg of the 72-1465 cable that connects to the port adapter to the second cable leg (this remains in use).


Note      You have functionally removed the Fast Ethernet port adapter from the system. You should not remove it from the slot. An empty slot will affect the unit's cooling.


Removing the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX) in the Router Shelf

Before you perform the steps in this section, you must perform the steps in the section "Disconnecting the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX) from the Router Shelf" section.

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to remove the Fast Ethernet port adapter from slots 3 and 4 of the Router Shelf:


Step 1   Free the clips that secure the adapter in the slot.

Step 2   Grasp the module by its handle and pull it out towards you. (See Figure 3-20.)


Figure 3-20   Removing the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter from Router Shelf Slot 1


Installing the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX) in the Router Shelf

A Fast Ethernet port adapter (PA-FE-TX) is already installed in every Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system Entry-Level configuration. The port adapter installs into slot 1 of the Router Shelf. You only need to install the port adapter if you must replace it.


Figure 3-21   Router Shelf Slot Numbering



Step 1   Refer to Figure 3-22, then remove the faceplates from slot 1.


Figure 3-22   Removing Faceplate from the Cisco 7206 Router Shelf Slot 1

Figure 3-23   Aligning and Installing the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter in Slot 1 of the Router Shelf


Step 3   If you must connect and activate the port adapter to the Cisco AccessPath-TS3 system, see "Connecting the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX)" below.

Connecting the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX)

A Fast Ethernet port adapter (PA-FE-TX) is already installed in every Cisco AccessPath-TS3 system Entry-level configuration. Because it is not connected when the system is shipped, the port adapter is inoperable.

This port adapter has an RJ-45 cable connector that is part of a cable assembly already in use.

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to connect the Fast Ethernet port adapter:


Step 1   Locate the 72-1465-xx cable and cut the cable tie.

Step 2   Connect the unused RJ-45 cable leg into the Ethernet port in slot 1 on the Router Shelf.


Figure 3-24   Fast Ethernet Port Adapter Fully Connected to the Cable Harness


Disconnecting the Ethernet Switch Module (PA-12E/2FE) from the Router Shelf


Note      Disconnecting the RJ-45 functionally removes the Fast Ethernet port adapter from the system. You should not remove it from the slot unless you are transplanting or shipping the port adapter.


Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform Step 1 and Step 2 to disconnect the Ethernet switch module (PA-12E/2FE) in slots 3 and 4 of the Router Shelf (see Figure 3-25 and Figure 3-26):


Step 1   Remove the 72-1487-xx cable from the Ethernet switch module in slots 3 and 4:

    (a). Remove the twelve RJ-45 connectors from the module ports.

    (b). Remove the DB-50 connector from cable harness connector (J56).

    (c). Store the cable.

Step 2   Remove the top connector of the 72-1489-xx cable from slot 3/0 and insert it into slot 5/0 on the Router Shelf.

Note      It is not necessary to physically remove the Ethernet switch module (PA-12E/2FE) from the Router Shelf to functionally remove it from the system.


Removing the Ethernet Switch Module (PA-12E/2FE) from the Router Shelf

Before you perform the steps in this section, you must perform the steps in "Disconnecting the Ethernet Switch Module (PA-12E/2FE) from the Router Shelf". The Ethernet switch module in Router Shelf slots 5 and 6 remains connected to provide a failover switching path if the new primary path fails.

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to remove the Ethernet switch module (PA-12E/2FE) from slots 3 and 4 of the Router Shelf:


Step 1   Release the clips to the left and right sides of the Ethernet switch module.

Step 2   Grasp the module by its handle and slide it out toward you until it releases as shown in Figure 3-27.


Figure 3-27   Removing the Dual Ethernet Switch Module from Slots 3 and 4 of the Router Shelf


Step 3   Store the module in a clean, dry, and safe place.

Step 4   Install the faceplates in slots 3 and 4 to protect against dust entering the router. (See Figure 3-28.) Insert the faceplate and tighten the two screws into the holes on each side.


Figure 3-28   Aligning and Installing the Faceplates in Slots 3 and 4 of the Router Shelf


Installing the Cisco PA-12E/2FE Ethernet Switch Module

If you have configured the Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system without the second Ethernet switch module (PA-12E/2FE), typically, to run with the Switch Shelf, you must reestablish a switched system infrastructure if you subsequently remove the Switch Shelf. In this case, you must install a second Ethernet switch module in the Router Shelf slots 3 and 4. After you install this module, its ports become the data path within the system.

The Ethernet switch module is available as a spare part from Cisco. You will receive it in a special kit. You must also order the cable (72-1487-xx).

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to install the Ethernet switch module in the router:


Step 1   Remove the faceplate (if one is present) in slots 3 and 4 of the Router Shelf. (See Figure 3-29.)
