Caution
When you install an AIM, always wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, and ensure that it makes good
contact with your skin. Connect the equipment end of the wrist strap to the metal part of the chassis.
Caution
Handle AIMs by the edges only. AIMs are ESD-sensitive components and can be damaged by
mishandling.
Accessory Kit to Use
Some AIMs are provided with multiple accessory kits that contain different configurations of mounting
hardware. Mounting hardware for the Cisco 1841 router consists of two machine thread metal standoffs,

parts.
For all other AIM module installations, use the hardware found in mounting kit 69-1316-01.
