Installing the M40e CIP

To install the CIP (see Figure 1):

1. Verify that the router is powered down.
2. Carefully insert the rear of the CIP into the guides at the top and bottom of the CIP slot, which is located to the left of the FPC card cage.

   Note: The components on the CIP are on the left side of the board, unlike the components of an FPC, which are on the right side. Verify that the components are on the left before inserting the CIP.

3. Slide the CIP into the chassis until it contacts the midplane.

   Caution: Be sure to slide the CIP straight within the slot to avoid damaging the connector pins on the front of the midplane.

4. Using a Phillips screwdriver, tighten the screw at each end of the CIP faceplate.
5. Reattach an external management device to one of the Routing Engine ports on the CIP (AUXILIARY, CONSOLE, or ETHERNET). Also reattach alarm relay contacts if desired. For instructions, see Replacing the M40e Management Ethernet Cable, Replacing the M40e Console or Auxiliary Cable, and Replacing Alarm Relay Wires on the M40e Router.
6. Power on the router and verify correct startup by performing the procedures in Connecting AC Power to the M40e Router for AC power orConnecting DC Power to the M40e Router for DC power.
