Installing the Vertical Cable Guides
Vertical cable guides for the Cisco ONS 15540 ESPx are installed onto the rack next to the cross connect
drawers. They are used to guide and hold down the cables from the line card motherboards into the cross

Step 1 Make sure you have the correct vertical cable guide for the side of the rack you are installing on.
Step 2 Hold the vertical cable guide over the rack next to the correct storage or cross connect drawer
Step 3 Align the mounting holes on the vertical cable guide with the mounting holes in the equipment rack.
Step 4 Secure the vertical cable guides with 12-24 or 10-32 screws.
Installing the Processor Card
Perform the following procedure to install the processor card in the Cisco ONS 15540 ESPx:
Step 1 Insert the processor card carefully into chassis slot 6. Guide the upper and lower edges of the
motherboard or processor card in the tracks until its connectors come into contact with the backplane.
Step 2 Use your thumb and forefinger of each hand to simultaneously push the motherboard or processor card
in until it is fully seated in the backplane connector.
Step 3 Use a 3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the captive installation screws.
