3745 Router modules hot swappable?

[gokada]

I would like to insert a 2FE2W module into a 3745 router into a vacant module slot. Are the modules hot-swappable or "OIR" Online insertion and removable capable? Please help!

Hello,

according to the data sheet (see link below), OIR is supported on the 3745:

Online Insertion and Removal-capable (3745 only)

--> Allows network modules to be swapped or serviced with minimal impact to network availability

Check this link to the data sheet and scroll down to Table 1:

Cisco 3700 Series Multiservice Access Routers

Many many thanks! I looked everywhere for a document that stated it was or wasn't OIR capable but to no avail until you responded. I appreciate your help greatly and I'm grateful for your quick response.

Hi, Just want to confirm if the same applys for a 3845? I am sure this is OIR capable.

Thanks,

Yavuz,

OIR is supported on almost all NMs across 3660, 3745 and 3845
