Installation Safety, ESD Precautions, and Tools Required
Safety with Electricity
Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
•Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the emergency
power-off switch for the room in which you are working.
•Disconnect all power and external cables before moving a chassis.
•Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
•Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check.
•Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment
unsafe.
•Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power
extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
In addition, use the guidelines that follow when working with any equipment that is connected to
telephone wiring or other network cabling:
•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet
locations.
•Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line is disconnected
at the network interface.
•Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic boards or components are
handled improperly, can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
•Always use an ESD-preventive wrist strap or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin
contact.
•When removing or installing an ESD sensitive component, connect the equipment end of a
ground strap to an unpainted surface of the chassis, such as the chassis frame.
•If you are returning a replaced part to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag
to avoid ESD damage to the board.
•The wrist strap only protects the board from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing
can still cause damage.
Warning For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The
measurement should be between 1 and 10 megohms.

Removing Processor Modules
Tools Required You need the following tools to install or replace backplane and card cage assembly:
•A 1/4-inch flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the captive screws on the power supplies and card
cage
•You will need a number 1 Phillips or 1/4-inch flat-blade screwdriver to remove any blank
processor module carriers (fillers) and to tighten the captive installation screws that secure the
processor module in its slot.
•Spare card cage assembly—includes the card cage with the chassis interface (attached) and dual
arbiter (attached)
•ESD-preventive wrist strap.
•Antistatic packaging in which the old card cage assembly should be placed
Removing Processor Modules
Replacing the card cage and backplane assembly first requires you to remove all processor modules
installed in the card cage, and then replace them after the new card cage assembly is in place. The
term processor module refers to the RSP2 and all interface processors.
Note Always use the ejector levers when installing or removing processor modules. A module that
is partially seated in the backplane will cause the system to hang and subsequently crash.
Timesaver To save time when you reinstall the processor modules in the card cage and reconnect
interface cables, use the port and slot worksheet in Table 1 to note which cables are connected to
which interface processor ports. (Also refer to Figure 10.)
Timesaver Before you can remove the card cage and backplane assembly, you must remove all
processor modules and both power supplies. Plan this procedure so that you can minimize its effects
on your system.
To remove a processor module, follow these steps:
Step 1 Turn OFF power to the chassis. If two power supplies are installed, the power switch on
each supply must be in the OFF (O) position.
Step 2 Attach an ESD-preventive strap between you and an unpainted surface on the chassis.
Step 3 If there is not enough slack in the network interface cables to remove the processor module
without straining the cables, disconnect any cables attached to the interface ports.
Step 4 You must pull each processor modules straight out of its slot. Ensure that there are no
obstructions that will prevent you from doing so, such as a power strip on a rack post,
network connection devices attached to adjacent processor modules, or extensive cabling
in front of the processor slots.
Step 5 Use a screwdriver to loosen the captive installation screws at the both ends of the processor
module. (See Figure 3a.)

Removing Processor Modules
Step 6 Place your thumbs on the ejector levers on both ends of the processor module (see
Figure 3c) and simultaneously pull them both outward to release the processor module
from the backplane connector.
Step 7 Grasp the processor module handle with one hand and place your other hand under the
carrier to support it. Pull the processor module straight out of the slot keeping it at a
90-degree orientation to the backplane. (See Figure 5 on page 8.)

Replacing Processor Modules
Replacing Processor Modules
You can replace an interface processor in any of the eleven interface processor slots, numbered 0
through 5 (CyBus 0) and 8 through 12 (CyBus 1), from left to right, viewing the chassis from the
interface processor end. (See Figure 1.) Slot 6 or 7 can contain the RSP2. Blank processor module
fillers are installed in slots without processor modules to maintain consistent air flow through the
card cage.
Figure 5 Handling a Processor Module during Installation
Caution Handle processor modules by the handles and carrier edges only to prevent ESD damage.
To replace a processor module, follow these steps:
Step 1 Turn OFF power to the chassis. If two power supplies are installed, the power switch on
each supply must be in the OFF (O) position.
Step 2 Processor modules are secured with two captive installation screws. Use a number 1
Phillips or a 1/4-inch flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the two captive installation screws
and remove the processor module filler (or the existing processor module) from the slot to
be filled.
Step 3 Hold the processor module handle with one hand, and place your other hand under the
carrier to support it. (See Figure 5.) Avoid touching the board.
Step 4 Place the back of the processor module in the slot and align the carrier guides along the
sides of the processor module with the grooves in the top and bottom of the slot. (See
Figure 3a.)
Step 5 While keeping the processor module at a 90-degree orientation to the backplane, carefully
slide the processor module into the slot until the processor module faceplate makes contact
with the ejector levers.

Removing a Power Supply
Step 6 Using your thumbs, simultaneously push both ejector levers inward until they push the
processor module completely into the slot. The ejector levers should be in approximately
the same orientation as the processor module faceplate. (See Figure 3c.)
Caution Always install blank processor module fillers in empty processor slots to maintain the
proper flow of cooling air through the chassis.
Step 7 Use a screwdriver to tighten both captive installation screws on each processor module.
Step 8 Attach network interface cables or other devices to the interface ports. Use the notes you
made in the slot and port worksheet in Table 1.
Step 9 After you reconnect power and turn ON power, check the status of the interfaces as follows:
•Use the show interface [type] or show controller [type] command to verify that the
system has acknowledged the interfaces and brought them up.
•Use the configure command or the setup command facility to configure any new
interface(s) you might have installed. This does not have to be done immediately, but
the interfaces will not be available until you configure them.
Removing a Power Supply
Replacing the card cage and backplane assembly first requires you to remove power supplies (and
the power supply blank if one is installed, in a system with one power supply), and then replace them
after the new card cage assembly is in place.
Follow these steps to remove a power supply.
Step 1 Turn OFF (O) the system power switch on each power supply you plan to remove.
Step 2 Disconnect the power supply cables from the power supplies.
For DC-input power supplies, refer to the configuration note “1200-Watt DC-Input Power
Supply Replacement Instructions” (Document Number 78-1899-01) that shipped with the
Cisco 7513 chassis equipped with DC-input power supplies.
For AC-input power supplies, refer to the configuration note “1200-Watt AC-Input Power
Supply Replacement Instructions” (Document Number 78-1900-01) that shipped with the
Cisco 7513 chassis equipped with AC-input power supplies.
Step 3 Use a large slotted screwdriver to loosen the captive screw that secures the power supply to
the chassis frame. (See Figure 6.)

Removing and Replacing the Card Cage and Backplane Assembly
Removing and Replacing the Card Cage and Backplane Assembly
The card cage and backplane consist of one assembly that can be removed and replaced as required.
There are no wires, harnesses, or connectors. The assembly slides into and out of the chassis and
attaches to the chassis frame with four slotted, captive screws. (See Figure 9.)
For this procedure, you will need one large flat-blade screwdriver, an antistatic bag for each removed
processor module, or several antistatic mats or pieces of antistatic foam.
Timesaver Before you can remove the card cage and backplane assembly, you must remove all
processor modules and both power supplies. Plan this procedure so that you can minimize its effects
on your system.
Following is the procedure to replace the card cage and backplane assembly:
Step 1 Turn the power switch on each power supply to the OFF position (O).
Step 2 Disconnect the power supplies.
For DC-input power supplies, refer to the configuration note “1200-Watt DC-Input Power
Supply Replacement Instructions” (Document Number 78-1899-01) that shipped with the
Cisco 7513 chassis equipped with DC-input power supplies.
For AC-input power supplies, refer to the configuration note “1200-Watt AC-Input Power
Supply Replacement Instructions” (Document Number 78-1900-01) that shipped with the
Cisco 7513 chassis equipped with AC-input power supplies.
Step 3 Using the directions in the appropriate configuration note, remove each power supply and
set it aside. (Refer to the section “Removing a Power Supply” on page 9.)
Step 4 Remove all processor modules from the chassis and carefully store them in antistatic bags
or on an antistatic mat. (Refer to the section “Removing Processor Modules” on page 5.)
Do not stack the processor modules one on top of another.
Step 5 With the processor modules and power supplies removed, loosen the four large captive
screws located to the left and right of the card cage opening. (See Figure 9.)
Caution Unless the chassis is mounted in a rack, or otherwise anchored, the chassis might move
toward you when you pull out the card cage and backplane assembly. To prevent injury, have a
second person hold the chassis in place while you pull the card cage and backplane assembly from
the chassis in the following step.
Step 6 With the captive screws loosened, carefully pull the card cage and backplane assembly
straight out of the chassis until the entire assembly is clear of the chassis sides. (See
Figure 9.) The assembly is not heavy, but might be awkward to handle.
Step 7 When the card cage and backplane assembly is completely free of the chassis, carefully
place it on an antistatic mat or foam.
Caution The electronic components on the rear of the backplane are completely exposed when the
card cage and backplane assembly is removed from the chassis. To prevent damaging these
components, place the card cage and backplane assembly on an antistatic mat or foam, and place the
assembly in the same orientation as when it is mounted in the chassis. (See Figure 9.)

Replacing a Power Supply
Replacing a Power Supply
Follow these steps to replace the power supply:
Step 1 To replace a power supply, hold it as shown in Figure 7 and slide it into the power supply
bay. Push the supply all the way into the chassis until the sides are flush against the chassis
frame.
Step 2 Use a large slotted screwdriver to tighten the captive screw that secures the power supply
to the chassis frame. (See Figure 6.)
Step 3 Reconnect the power supply cables between the power supplies.
For DC-input power supplies, refer to the configuration note “1200-Watt DC-Input Power
Supply Replacement Instructions” (Document Number 78-1899-01) that shipped with the
Cisco 7513 chassis equipped with DC-input power supplies.
For AC-input power supplies, refer to the configuration note “1200-Watt AC-Input Power
Supply Replacement Instructions” (Document Number 78-1900-01) that shipped with the
Cisco 7513 chassis equipped with AC-input power supplies.
Note After the AC power cable or DC power cable leads are reconnected, reconnect the power
cable at the power source.
This completes the power supply replacement procedure.
Checking the System
To complete the installation, perform a final check of all connections, then restart the system. This
procedure is not for new systems; perform this procedure only if you have already connected the
network interfaces and performed the first-time startup procedures discussed in the Cisco 7513
HardwareInstallationandMaintenancepublicationandtheRouterProducts Getting Started Guide.
Follow these steps to restart the system and verify that the system restarts successfully:
Step 1 Check the following components to make sure they are secure:
•Processor modules are fully inserted in the slots and all captive screws are tightened.
•Interface cable connections are secured.
•Power supplies are fully inserted in the bays, and the captive screws are tightened.
•Power supply cables are fully connected to the power supplies and the power source,
and secured with appropriate strain relief.
Step 2 Ensure that a console terminal is connected to the RSP2 console port and turned on, or that
you have a remote login to the router from another device through a Telnet session. (You
willneedtocheckthestartupbanneranddisplaystoensurethatthesystemrestarts properly
and that all the interfaces reinitialize in the proper state.)
Step 3 When you have checked all of the connection points, turn on the supply in the power A bay
by turning its power switch clockwise one-quarter turn. The OK LED on the power supply
and the power A LED on the front of the chassis should go on.
Step 4 After the power supply in bay A is on, turn the second power supply on in bay B, if one is
present for redundant power. The OK LED on each power supply and the power A (and B)
LEDs on the front of the chassis should go on.

Cisco 7513 Card Cage and Backplane Assembly Replacement Instructions 15
Checking the System
Note If you try to turn on a power supply and the switch resists, the power supply probably is not
fully inserted into the bay. Turn the power switch fully counterclockwise (to O), pull the power
supply out of the bay about two inches, then push the power supply firmly back into the slot. Do not
slam the supply into the slot—doing so can damage the connectors on the supply and the backplane.
Tighten the captive installation screw before turning on the switch.
Step 5 Listen for the system blower. You should hear it start operating immediately.
Step 6 On the console terminal, verify that the console displays the system banner and that the
system and all interfaces initialize successfully. Following is an example of this display.
