Installing Modules, Interface Cards, and Power Supplies
Cisco routers are normally shipped with network modules, WAN interface cards (WICs), voice interface
cards (VICs), advanced integration modules (AIMs), and power supplies already installed. If you need
to remove or install any of these items, refer to the applicable documents online.

Note If there are modules, interface cards, or power supplies to be removed or installed, Cisco suggests that
you perform the installation or removal before you install the chassis. If a chassis cover needs to be
removed, the chassis may have to be removed from the rack to permit cover removal.
Note The Cisco 3660 accommodates two AC or two DC hot-swappable power supplies (PS1 and PS2) in bays
at the rear of the unit. Each unit provides up to 250 W of power, and a single installed power supply
meets the router's requirements. The second installed power supply provides redundancy, load sharing,
and increased system availability. It can be removed without affecting system operation.
If the required network modules, interface cards, and power supplies are already installed, proceed to
the “Installing the Chassis” section on page 3-3.
