VIP4 Maintenance Procedures
Figure 11 Location of VIP4 Slot Divider and Screws
Use the following procedure to remove the slot divider from a VIP4:
Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap between you and an unpainted chassis surface.
Step 2 Remove the VIP4 from the router. (See the “Removing a VIP4” section on page 18.)
Step 3 Place the removed VIP4 on an antistatic mat or foam pad.
Step 4 Remove any installed port adapters or blank port adapters from the port adapter slots on the VIP4. To
do this, use a number 1 Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw located at the rear of each port adapter
slot.
• To locate this screw on single-width port adapters, see the first panel of Figure 10.
• To locate this screw on dual-width port adapters, see the first panel of Figure 12.
Step 5 Use a number 1 Phillips screwdriver to remove the four slot divider screws that secure the slot divider
to the VIP4 motherboard. (See Figure 11.)
Step 6 Remove the slot divider and store it (and the screws) in a location where you can retrieve it for use later.
Note If you need to reinstall the port adapter slot divider, place the slot divider in position on the VIP4
and secure it with the four Phillips screws.
With the slot divider removed, see Figure 12, which describes the steps required to install or remove a
dual-width port adapter.
