3. Insert the new fan assembly into the fan slot and push the enclosure in until the faceplate is 

flush with the router. Pushing the enclosure in seats the fan connector with the router 
connector.

4. Tighten the four captive screws to secure the fan to the router.

5. Access the CLI, and enter the show chassis command to verify that the fans are operating 

normally.

Replacing the air filters

It is strongly recommended that routers be installed in environments that have minimal dust and 
airborne contaminants. If routers are installed in environments where dust or other airborne 
contaminants may be present, air filters should be inspected and replaced as needed. Maintaining 
clean air filters ensures optimal airflow through the devices.
