Installing a FIC
Step1 Place the router with the front panel forward.
Step2 Align the remote edge of the FIC with the slot edge, push it into the slot, push the ejector levers inward

are the minimum angles).
Step3 Fix the FIC in the chassis by fastening the captive screws.
Repeat these steps to install all the other FICs.
Removing a FIC
