Online Insertion and Removal
The Cisco 7600 series routers support online insertion and removal (OIR) of the Cisco 7600 Series ES+
line card, as well as OIR for the SFP or XFP modules. Therefore, you can remove a Cisco 7600 Series
ES+ line card with its SFP or XFP modules still intact, or you can remove SFP or XFP modules
independently from the Cisco 7600 Series ES+ line card, leaving the line card installed in the router.
Note The 40 port versions (7600-ES+40G3C and 7600-ES+40G3CXL) require longer maintenance time for
card replacement.
This section includes the following topics on OIR support:

Preparing for Online Removal of a Cisco 7600 Series Ethernet Services Plus Line
Card
The Cisco 7600 series routers support OIR of the Cisco 7600 Series ES+ line card. To do this, you can
power down a Cisco 7600 Series ES+ line card (which automatically deactivates any installed SFP or
XFP modules) and remove the Cisco 7600 Series ES+ line card with the SFP or XFP modules still intact.
Although graceful deactivation of a 7600 ES+ line card is preferred using the no power enable module
command, the Cisco 7600 series routers do support removal of the 7600 ES+ line card without
deactivating it first.
