For release note information on the PA-2FEISL, refer to the Cisco IOS software release note for the version of Cisco IOS software that you are running.
Ensure that the following hardware requirements are met for your PA-2FEISL:
The PA-2FEISL-FX requires the following Network Processing Engine (NPE) models:
•NPE-150 (150-MHz network processor)—up to 128 MB of DRAM
•NPE-175 (200-MHz network processor)—up to 128 MB of DRAM
•NPE-200 (200-MHz network processor)—up to 128 MB of DRAM
•NPE-225 (262-MHz network processor)—up to 128 MB of DRAM
Note The NPE-100 does not support the PA-2FEISL in Cisco 7200 series routers.
•In Cisco 7000 series or Cisco 7500 series routers, the PA-2FEISL requires the following VIP2 models:
–VIP2-15 (1 MB of SRAM, 8 MB of DRAM)
–VIP2-20 (1 MB of SRAM, 16 MB of DRAM)
–VIP2-40 (2 MB of SRAM, 32 MB of DRAM)
Note This release of the PA-2FEISL is not supported on the VIP2-50. (This restriction is subject to change without notice.)
Note The minimum recommended VIP2 model is a VIP2-15. The maximum transmission unit (MTU) sizes available for two PA-2FEISL port adapters on a VIP2 require the additional VIP2 SRAM available on VIP2-15 models, or greater, to ensure adequate packet buffers. The VIP2-15 can also be used if you only have one Fast Ethernet port adapter on a VIP2.
The VIP2-10 has certain configuration constraints because of its limited SRAM for packet buffers; therefore, we do not recommend you use VIP2-10 with Fast Ethernet port adapters.
Caution
The VIP2 requires that Cisco 7000 series routers have the RSP7000 and RSP7000CI installed. The VIP2 will
not operate properly with the Route Processor (RP), Switch Processor (SP), or Silicon Switch Processor (SSP) installed in the Cisco 7000 series routers.
Checking Hardware and Software Compatibility
To check the minimum software requirements of Cisco IOS software with the hardware installed on your router, Cisco maintains the Software Advisor tool on Cisco.com. This tool does not verify whether modules within a system are compatible, but it does provide the minimum IOS requirements for individual hardware modules or components.
Note Access to this tool is limited to users with Cisco.com login accounts.

Electrical Equipment Guidelines
Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
•Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working.
•Disconnect all power and external cables before moving a chassis; do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist.
•Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.
•Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe; carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
Telephone Wiring Guidelines
Use the following guidelines when working with any equipment that is connected to telephone wiring or to other network cabling:
•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.
•Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
•Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. Port adapters and processor modules comprise printed circuit boards that are fixed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the board from ESD, use a preventive antistatic strap during handling.
Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
•Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.
•Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.
•When installing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to properly seat the bus connectors in the backplane or midplane. These devices prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.
•When removing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to release the bus connectors from the backplane or midplane.
•Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or connectors.
•Place a removed board component-side-up on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding container. If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding container.
•Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects components from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
•Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.
Caution
For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).
FCC Class A Compliance
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
•Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
•Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
•Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
•Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Note The PA-2FEISL port adapter has been designed to meet these requirements. Modifications to this product that are not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc., could void the various approvals and negate your authority to operate the product.
