Cisco ASR 9000 Series Routers include a cable-management system that organizes the interface cables entering and exiting the router, keeping them out of the way and free of sharp bends.
3 in slot 3 in a Cisco ASR 9010 Router. Router Cable Management Brackets The Cisco ASR 9006 Router provides for a cable management bracket on each side of the router chassis. Figure 1-56 shows a typical cable routing for the Cisco ASR 9006 Router.
J. 21 1 B IT S J. 21 1 Each line card has its own cable routing slot in the Cisco ASR 9006 Router cable management brackets. For example, the cables shown in Figure 1-56 are cables being routed to line card 0 in slot 3 and line card 2 in slot 5.
Installing a Line Card Cable Management Bracket To install a line card cable-management bracket, follow these steps: Attach an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and follow its instructions for use.

1-60) or one duplex LC connector (see Figure 1-61). Optical fiber cables are available from cable vendors. These cables are not available from Cisco. Note Because invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the aperture of the port when no cable is Warning connected, avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not stare into open apertures.

During a typical line card boot process, the following events occur: The line card receives power and begins executing initialization software. The line card performs internal checks, and prepares to accept the Cisco IOS XR software from the RSP. The RSP loads the line card with its Cisco IOS XR software.
Green Line card has booted properly, and is ready to pass or is passing traffic. Steady Amber Line card boot process is underway. When the Cisco IOS XR software finishes loading, the LED turns green. Blinking Amber Software configuration error has occurred that prevents the line card from passing traffic.
If an error message displays on the console terminal during the line card initialization, see the Step 4 appropriate reference publication for error message definitions. If you experience other problems that you cannot solve, contact a Cisco service representative for assistance.

Instance numbers are reserved for cards that have subslots. This parameter is currently always 0 (zero) for line cards in the Cisco ASR 9000 Series. The ports on the line card are numbered 0, 1, 2, and so on. For example, the rack/slot/instance/port address of the fourth port of a line card installed in line card slot 1 is 0/1/0/3.
The no shutdown command passes an enable command to the line card. It also causes the line card to configure itself based on the most recent configuration commands received by the line card. If you want to disable the Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), which is not required, use this command: Step 7...
Advanced Line Card Troubleshooting This section briefly describes advanced troubleshooting commands that can be used if a line card fails. This section assumes that you possess basic proficiency in the use of Cisco IOS XR software commands. Note By using the commands listed in this section, you should be able to determine the nature of the problems you are having with your line card.
Chapter 2 Verifying and Troubleshooting the Line Card Installation Regulatory, Compliance, and Safety Information For examples of how to use these commands and the resulting output, see the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Troubleshooting Guide. Note It is important to collect the show tech-support command data before doing a reload or power cycle.

Ethernet line cards using GLC-GE-100FX SFP transceiver modules are installed in the router. This is due to the lower temperature specifications of the SFP module. Please contact a Cisco representative for more information. 2. Short term operating temperature specifications for the router will differ from those listed in this table when the 16-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet line card is installed in the router because of the lower temperature specifications of the SFP+ modules that are used in this line card.
When using the SFP-10G-SR module, the maximum altitude is 5905 ft (1800 m). When using the SFP-10G-LR or SFP-10G-ER modules, the maximum altitude is sea level. Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Ethernet Line Card Installation Guide OL-17500-08...
