Chapter 6 Installing and Removing a SPA
Installing a SPA in a SIP
To verify the deactivation of a SPA, enter the show hw-module subslot oir command in privileged
EXEC configuration mode. Observe the Operational Status field associated with the SPA that you want
to verify.
In the following example, the SPA located in subslot 1 of the SIP in chassis slot 7 is administratively
down after entering the hw-module subslot shutdown powered command:
Router(config)# hw-module subslot 7/1 shutdown powered
Performing request on SPA 7/1 in jacket card in slot 7
Router(config)# exit
Router# show hw-module subslot 7/1 oir

Installing a SPA in a SIP
To install a SPA in a SIP, do the following:
Step 1 To insert the SPA in the SIP, locate the guide rails inside the SIP that hold the SPA in place. They are at
the top right and bottom right of the SPA slot and are recessed about an inch.
Step 2 Carefully slide the SPA all the way in the SIP until the SPA is firmly seated in the SPA interface
connector. When fully seated, the SPA might be slightly behind the SIP faceplate.
Step 3 After the SPA is properly seated, fasten the SPA in place with the captive installation screws.
Removing a SPA from a SIP
To remove a SPA from a SIP, do the following:
Step 1 If attached, remove any cables from the SPA.
Step 2 To remove the SPA from the SIP, unfasten the captive installation screws on the SPA.
Step 3 Grasp the handles of the SPA and pull the SPA from the SIP. (You have already disconnected the cables
from the SPA when removing the SIP).
Optical Device Maintenance
Any contamination of the fiber connection can cause failure of the component or failure of the whole
system. A particle that partially or completely blocks the core generates strong back reflections, which
can cause instability in the laser system. Inspection, cleaning, and reinspection are critical steps to take
before making fiber-optic connections.
