M7I Field-Replaceable Units (FRUs)

Field-replaceable units (FRUs) are router components that can be replaced at the customer site. Replacing most FRUs requires minimal router downtime. The router uses the following types of FRUs:

• Hot-removable and hot-insertable FRUs—You can remove and replace these components without powering down the router or disrupting the routing functions.
• Hot-pluggable FRUs—You can remove and replace these components without powering down the router, but the routing functions of the system are interrupted when the component is removed.

Table 1 lists the FRUs for the M7i router.
