20 Installing the RSP7000 Upgrade Kit in the Cisco 7000 Series Routers
For proper card orientation during this installation, refer to Figure 6 for the Cisco 7000 and
Grasp the RSP7000 handle with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier to
support as you guide it into the 7000 RSP slot in the following step. Avoid touching the
board or any connectors.
Place the back of the RSP7000 in the 7000 RSP slot, and align the notches along the edge
of the carrier with the grooves in the slot.
To prevent damage to the backplane, you must install the RSP7000 in slot 5 of the
While keeping the RSP7000 parallel to the backplane, carefully slide the carrier into the
7000 RSP until the RSP7000 faceplate makes contact with the ejector levers, then stop.
(See Figure 5b on page 9.)
Using the thumb and forefinger of each hand to pinch each ejector, simultaneously push
both ejectors inward (toward the handle) until they parallel to the faceplate. (See Figure 5c
on page 9.)
Use a screwdriver (number 2 Phillips or 3/16-inch flat-blade) to tighten the captive
installation screws on the ends of the RSP7000. (See Figure 5a on page 9.)
Tighten the two captive screws on the RSP7000 faceplate to prevent the RSP7000 from
becoming partially dislodged from the backplane and to ensure proper EMI shielding.
(These screws must be tightened to meet EMI specifications.)
Connect the console terminal to the console port and any auxiliary devices to the auxiliary
port on the RSP7000.
Ensure that the console terminal is turned on.
