Step 6
When both ends of the DIMM are released from the socket, grasp each end of the DIMM with your
thumb and forefinger and pull the DIMM completely out of the socket. Handle only the edges of the
DIMM; avoid touching the memory module, pins, and the metal traces (the metal fingers along the
connector edge of the DIMM) along the socket edge.
Step 7 Place the DIMM in an antistatic bag to protect it from ESD damage.
Step 8 Repeat Step 5 through Step 7 for the remaining DIMMs, if required, for your upgrade.
This completes the steps for removing the Cisco ASR 1001-X Router DIMMs from the chassis.
Replacing a Cisco ASR 1001-X Router DIMM
This section lists the steps to replace a DIMM in the Cisco ASR 1001-X Router.
Step 1 Place the DIMM on an antistatic mat or pad while wearing an antistatic device, such as a wrist strap.
Caution DIMMs are sensitive components that can be shorted by mishandling; they are susceptible to
ESD damage. Handle the DIMM by the edges only, and avoid touching the pins.
Step 2 Remove the new DIMM from the antistatic bag.
Step 3 Locate the polarization notch and align the DIMM with the socket before inserting it. See Figure 7-12.
