Note If you are installing a Supervisor Engine 2T in your chassis, the slots directly adjacent (above
and below in horizontal chassis or to the left and to the right in vertical chassis) to the supervisor
engine must contain either a redundant Supervisor Engine
2T, line cards or switching-module
filler plates (Cisco part numbers WS-X6K-SLOT-CVR-E or SLOTBLANK-09). If either slot is
going to remain unused and currently has a blank slot cover (Cisco part number
WS-X6K-SLOT-CVR) installed, you must remove the blank slot cover and replace it with a
switching-module filler plate for NEBS compliance.
Note The primary supervisor engine in a redundant supervisor engine configuration, or a single
supervisor engine configuration can be installed in either of the two slots.
Step 3 Visually verify that there is enough clearance to accommodate any interface equipment, such as
pluggable transceivers, that you will install directly to the supervisor engine uplink ports.
Step 4 If you are installing a Supervisor Engine 2T, verify that the two slots adjacent to the slot you are going
to install the supervisor engine contain either another Supervisor Engine
2T, a module, or, if the slot is
unused, a switching-module filler plate (Cisco part numbers WS-X6K-SLOT-CVR-E or
SLOTBLANK-09).
Step 5 Verify that the captive installation screws are tightened on all modules installed in the chassis.
