A9K-8HG-FLEX-TR appears with A9K-8HG-FLEX-SE in Cisco Table 29. The table addresses online insertion and removal behavior when specified QDD-400G-ZR-S or QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical modules are present.
For that scenario, Cisco lists front-panel ports 0 and 7 and a maximum supported OIR duration of three minutes at 30°C (86°F) at mean sea level. Those limits must not be generalized to other optics, temperatures or altitude.
Verify actual line-card PID, populated ports, environmental conditions and software procedure before OIR. Record configuration and rollback ownership before handling a powered system.
The source confirms the line-card identifier and narrow OIR constraint; it does not prove optics, chassis, licenses or support are included.
