5. Slide the PIC into the slot:
• For a regular PIC, slide the PIC into the slot until abou t 0.5 in. (1 cm) of the PIC
remains outside the slot and you feel some resistance. Release the ejector lever
and gently pus
h the PIC faceplate until you hear a click as the PIC contacts the
midplane. The ejector lever engages and closes automatically.
• For a quad-wid
e PIC, slide the PIC into the slot until it contacts the midplane.
Push the ejector levers inward toward the PIC faceplate to seat the PIC securely
in the chassis.
Slide the PIC straight into the slot to avoid damaging the components
on the PIC.
6. If the PIC uses fiber-optic cable, remove the rubber safety cap from each transceiver
and the end of each cable.
Do not look direct
ly into the ends of fiber-optic cab les or into the
transceivers on the interface faceplate. Single-mode fiber-optic cable
and the interfac
es that use it (such as ATM and SONET/SDH interfaces)
emit laser light that can d amage your eyes.
Do not leave a fiber-optic transceiver uncovered except when inserting
or removing cable. The safety cap keeps the port clean and prevents
accidental exposure to laser light.
7. Insert the appropria
te cables into the cable co nnectors on the PIC.
