Step 3
Grasp the handle on the port adapter and pull the port adapter from the midplane, about
half way out of its slot. If you are removing a blank port adapter, pull the blank port
adapter from the chassis slot.
Note As you disengage the port adapter from the router midplane, OIR administratively
shuts down all active interfaces on the port adapter.
Step 4 With the port adapter half way out of the slot, disconnect all cables from the port adapter.
Step 5 After disconnecting the cables, pull the port adapter from its chassis slot.
Caution Always handle the port adapter by the carrier edges and handle; never touch the port
adapter’s components or connector pins. (Refer to Figure 6-4.)

Step 6
Place the port adapter on an antistatic surface with its components facing upward, or in a
static shielding bag. If the port adapter will be returned to the factory, immediately place
it in a static shielding bag.
This completes the procedure for removing a port adapter from a Cisco uBR7200 series router.
