Grasp the front panel of the supervisor engine with one hand and place your other hand under the carrier
Step 4
to support and guide it out of the slot. Do not touch the printed circuit boards or connector pins.
Step 5
Carefully pull the supervisor engine straight out of the slot, keeping your other hand under the carrier to
guide it.
Step 6
Place the supervisor engine on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam, or immediately install it in another
slot.
Warning
Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to
hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI)
that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not
operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement 1029
Step 7
In chassis configured with redundant supervisor engines, if the chassis slot is to remain empty, you must
install either a blank faceplate (C4K-SLOT-CVR) or a blank line card (C4K-SLOT-CVR-E). The
following guidelines explain when to use a blank faceplate and when to use a blank line card.

Warning
To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network
voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some
LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables. Statement 1021
Always keep caps and plugs on the fiber-optic connectors on the cable and the switch when they are not

in use.

If you have either a Catalyst 4507R or a Catalyst 4510R switch chassis, you must install the blank
line card (C4K-SLOT-CVR-E) rather than the blank faceplate to cover the empty chassis slot. A
blank faceplate does not direct sufficient airflow to adequately cool the remaining Supervisor
Engine 6-E.
If you have any other Catalyst 4500 series chassis, you can install the blank faceplate
(C4K-SLOT-CVR) over the empty chassis slot. The airflow is sufficient to adequately cool the
remaining Supervisor Engine 6-E.
