Preparing for installation

The H3C SecPath M9000 Multi Service Security Gateway Series includes the following models:

·          M9006.

·          M9010.

·          M9010-GM.

·          M9014.

Safety recommendations

To avoid bodily injury and equipment damage, read all safety recommendations carefully before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.

General safety recommendations

·          Keep the gateway clean and dust-free.

·          Do not place the gateway on a moist area, and avoid liquid flowing into the gateway.

·          Make sure the ground is dry and flat and anti-slip measures are in place.

·          Keep the gateway and installation tools away from walk areas.

·          Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry (for example, necklace) or any other things that could get caught in the chassis when you install and maintain the gateway.

Electricity safety

·          Clear the work area of possible electricity hazards, such as ungrounded power extension cables, missing safety grounds, and wet floors.

·          Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room before installation so you can quickly shut power off when an electrical accident occurs.

·          Unplug all external cables, including power cords, before moving the chassis.

·          Do not work alone when the gateway has power.

·          Always verify that power has been disconnected from a circuit.

Handling safety

CAUTION

CAUTION:

Do not hold the handle of the fan tray, power module, or back cover of the chassis, or the air vents of chassis to move the gateway. Any attempt to move the gateway with these parts might cause equipment damage and even bodily injury.

 

When you move the gateway, follow these guidelines:

·          Remove all external cables, including the power cords, before moving the chassis.

·          Moving the chassis requires at least two people, and you can use a mechanical lift as needed.

·          Lift and put down the chassis slowly and never move suddenly.

·          Hold the handles of the chassis.

ESD prevention

To prevent the electric component from being damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD), follow these guidelines:

·          Ground the gateway correctly. For how to ground your gateway, see "Grounding the gateway."

·          Always wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it is correctly grounded when installing FRUs. For how to use an ESD wrist strap, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

·          Hold a PCB by its edges. Do not touch any electronic components or printed circuit.

·          Put cards away in antistatic bags for future use.

Laser safety

WARNING

WARNING!

Do not stare into any fiber port or view directly with non-attenuating optical instruments when the gateway is operating. The laser light emitted from the fiber port might hurt your eyes.

 

Examining the installation site

The gateway must be used indoors. To ensure the correct operation and long service life of your gateway, the installation site must meet the requirements in this section.

Weight support

Make sure the floor can support the total weight of the rack, chassis, and accessories. Additionally, the floor loading plan must also consider system expansion, such as adding more cards. For more information, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."

Temperature

CAUTION

CAUTION:

If condensation appears on the chassis when you move it to a high-temperature environment, dry the chassis before powering it on to avoid short circuits.

 

To ensure the correct operation of the gateway, make sure the room temperature meets the requirements in Table 1.

Table 1 Temperature requirements

Temperature

Range

Operating temperature

0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F)

Storage temperature

–40°C to +70°C (–40°F to +158°F)

 

Humidity

Maintain appropriate humidity in your equipment room, as described in Table 2.

·          Lasting high relative humidity tends to cause poor insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical property change of materials, and corrosion of metal parts.

·          Lasting low relative humidity is likely to result in loose screws due to washer contraction, and even electrostatic discharge (ESD), which causes the circuits to fail.

Table 2 Humidity requirements

Humidity

Range

Operating humidity

10% to 95%, noncondensing

EMI

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) might be coupled from the source to the gateway through the following coupling mechanisms:

·          Capacitive coupling

·          Inductive coupling

·          Radiative coupling

·          Common impedance coupling

·          Conductive coupling

To prevent EMI, take the following actions:

·          Filter interference from the power grid.

·          Keep the gateway grounding facilities away from grounding and lightning protection facilities of other devices.

·          Keep the gateway far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency devices to make sure the EMI levels do not exceed the compliant range.

·          Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.

Grounding

Using a good grounding system to protect your gateway against lightning shocks, interferences, and ESD is essential to the operating reliability of your gateway.

Make sure the resistance between the chassis and the ground is less than 1 ohm. For more information about grounding the gateway, see "Grounding the gateway."

Power

Perform the following tasks to meet the power requirements:

1.        Calculate the system power consumption.

The system power consumption varies by card type and density. For more information about system power consumption calculation, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."

2.        Select power modules and identify the number of power modules.

The total maximum output power of all power modules must be higher than the system power consumption. For more information about available power modules, see "Appendix B FRUs and compatibility matrixes."

3.        Verify that the power system at the installation site meets the requirements of the power modules, including the input method and rated input voltage.

Cooling

Plan the installation site for adequate ventilation.

·          The installation site has a good cooling system.

·          The rack for the gateway has a good cooling system.

·          Leave a minimum clearance of 10 cm (3.94 in) around the inlet and outlet air vents.

Figure 1 shows the airflow through the M9010 or M9010-GM chassis. Figure 2 shows the airflow through the M9006 chassis. M9014 and M9006 have the same airflow designs.

Installing the gateway

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT:

Keep the packages of the gateway and the components secure for repackaging.

 

Confirming installation preparations

Before you install the gateway, verify that:

·          You have read the chapter "Preparing for installation" carefully and the installation site meets all the requirements.

·          A 19-inch rack has been installed. For how to install a rack, see the rack installation guide.

·          The rack is sturdy and securely grounded.

·          The rack has enough space to install the gateway and no debris exists inside or around the rack.

·          The mounting position of the gateway on the rack has been identified. As a best practice, install the gateway at the bottom of the rack.

·          The total height of the devices to be installed in the rack is no higher than the available installation height of the rack and enough clearance is reserved for cable routing. Make sure the heaviest device is placed at the bottom of the rack.

·          The gateway is ready for installation and has been carried to a place near the rack and convenient for moving.

Attaching slide rails to the rack

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT:

To ensure stability of the rack, install the slide rails to the lowest possible position when installing a single gateway in the rack. To install multiple devices on the rack, mount the heaviest device at the bottom of the rack.

 

If the rack has slide rails, skip this section.

Before you attach slide rails to the rack, verify that the slide rails can support the weight of the gateway. For the weights of the M9000 gateways, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."

As a best practice, order H3C slide rail LSTM2KSGD0. The slide rail has an adjustment range of 500 mm (19.69 in) to 800 mm (31.50 in).

Slide rail installation varies by rack type. The following installation procedure is for your reference only.

To install slide rails:

1.        Read the signs on the slide rails (see Table 7) to identify the left and right slide rails.

Attaching cable management brackets and mounting brackets to the chassis

Before installing the gateway to the rack, install the cable management brackets and mounting brackets shipped with the gateway. Cable management brackets (signal cable and power cord management brackets) are used for cabling the gateway, and mounting brackets are used for attaching the chassis to the rack.

Installing cable management brackets

The M9010 and M9010-GM gateways each have two cable management brackets—the signal cable management brackets are installed at the upper part of the gateway, and the power cord management brackets are installed at the lower part of the gateway. They are installed in the same way. For more information, see Figure 8.

The M9006 and M9014 gateways come with the signal cable management brackets secured to the mounting brackets. The power cord management bracket of the M9006 gateway has a slightly different structure than the M9006 and M9014, and is installed in a similar procedure. For more information, see Figure 9.

The power cord management bracket installation procedure for the M9014, M9010, and M9010-GM is the same.

To install a cable management bracket:

1.        Unpack the cable management bracket from the accessory kit package.

2.        Place the cable management bracket against the installation position on the chassis, and align the screws with the mounting holes on the chassis, as shown in Figure 8.

3.        Fasten the screws to secure the cable management bracket to the chassis.

4.        Insert the grounding terminal of the ESD wrist strap into the ESD port on the gateway chassis.

Figure 16 Attaching an ESD wrist strap (M9006)

 

Installing a card

IMPORTANT

IMPORTANT:

·      The gateway comes with no blank filler panels on some card slots. The figures in this document are for illustration only.

·      The switching fabric modules of the M9010, M9010-GM, and M9014 have protection boxes when shipped. Before you install a switching fabric module, pull the ejector levers on the module outwards, and then pull the module out of the protection box.

 

The installation procedures for MPUs, interface modules, service modules, and switching fabric modules are the same. Unless otherwise stated, MPUs, interface modules, service modules, and switching fabric modules are collectively referred to as "cards" in this document.

These cards are either horizontally oriented or vertically oriented. When installing a card in a horizontal slot, make sure its PCB faces up. When installing a card in a vertical slot, make sure its PCB faces left.

This section takes installing a horizontally oriented card as an example.

To install a horizontally oriented card:

1.        Select the slot to install the card, and remove the blank filler panel (if any) from the slot.

2.        Hold the card by the front panel with one hand and support the card bottom with the other. Slide the card steadily into the slot along the guide rails, as shown in callout 1 on Figure 17.

3.        When most part of the card is inserted in the slot, press the ejector levers on the card outward, as shown in callout 2 on Figure 17.

4.        Push the card until the positioning pin on card touches the hole on the chassis.

5.        As shown in callout 3 on Figure 17, press the ejector levers inward until the ejector levers touch the panel tightly and the card seats into the backplane

6.        As shown in callout 4 on Figure 17, fasten the captive screws on the card.

Troubleshooting

This chapter describes how to troubleshoot your gateway.

 

TIP

TIP:

Clean your gateway periodically because the noncompliant operating environments may cause gateway failures. At the same time, verify the installation environments against the requirements in "Preparing for installation." Make sure the gateway operates in a compliant environment. Additionally, periodically perform the power-on test for the spare gateways.

 

Troubleshooting methods

When your gateway fails, you can use the following methods to troubleshoot the gateway:

·          At the CLI, you can use the related commands to display hardware information, locate hardware failures, and examine statistics for exceptions. If any configuration error is found, re-configure the gateway or restore the factory-default settings.

·          The MPU provides the LEDs for the fans and cards. You can locate the failures according to the LED status on the MPU. For more information about the LED status on the MPU, see "Appendix C LEDs."

·          The MPUs, interface modules, and service modules of the gateway provide the port status LEDs, with which you can detect port failures. For more information about the LED status on the MPUs, interface modules, and service modules, see "Appendix C LEDs."

If you cannot locate failures by following the guidelines in this chapter, contact H3C Support.

Configuration terminal issues

If the configuration environment setup is correct, the configuration terminal displays boot information when the gateway is powered on. If the setup is incorrect, the configuration terminal displays garbled text or does not display anything.

No terminal display

Symptom

The configuration terminal displays nothing when the gateway is powered on.

Solution

To resolve the issue:

1.        Verify that the power supply system is operating correctly.

2.        Verify that the MPU is operating correctly.

3.        Verify that the console cable has been connected to the console port of the MPU.

4.        Verify that the console cable has been connected to the correct serial interface on the terminal and the serial interface in use is the one set on the terminal.

5.        Verify that the console cable is in good condition and operates correctly.

6.        If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.

Garbled terminal display

Symptom

Terminal display is garbled.

Solution

To resolve the issue:

1.        Verify that the following settings are configured for the terminal, for example, HyperTerminal:

¡  Baud rate—9,600.

¡  Data bits—8.

¡  ParityNone.

¡  Stop bits—1.

¡  Flow controlNone.

When you modify the settings for the console port of the gateway, configure the same settings for the console terminal.

2.        If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.

Power supply system failure

Symptom

The power LEDs are off or not green.

Solution

To resolve the issue:

1.        If the DC LED is orange, the power supply has transitioned to the over-temperature protection state. Examine the cooling system for inadequate ventilation, and make sure every empty slot is covered by a blank filler panel.

2.        If the DC LED is red, the power supply has transitioned to a self-protection state because of a power supplying problem. Examine the power supply for output short circuit, output over-current, output over-voltage, input under-voltage, or remote disconnection.

The DC LED also turns red if the input of the power supply is disconnected while the other power supply is operating correctly. In this case, connect the input or keep the input disconnected as needed.

3.        Examine the power cord connections. If a power cord is loose, re-install the power cord. If a power cord is broken, replace it.

4.        Examine the power module installation. If the power module is not fully seated, re-install the power module to ensure that it has a close contact with the backplane of the gateway.

5.        Verify that the power supply system operates correctly and provides a normal voltage.

6.        If the gateway has empty power module slots, remove the power module, install the power module into an empty power module slot after all LEDs on the power module are off, and verify that the power module can operate correctly.

7.        Install a new power module of the same model into the same slot, and connect it to the same power input end. If the new power module can operate correctly, the old power module has failed. You must replace the old power supply.

8.        If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.

Fan failure

Symptom

The OK LED is off or the FAIL LED is on.

Solution

To resolve the issue:

1.        If both LEDs are off, verify that the power modules are operating correctly. For more information, see "Power supply system failure."

2.        Verify that the air inlet and outlet vents of the chassis are not blocked. If they are blocked, clean them to keep good ventilation. If you install air filters, remove the air filters, clean them, and install them again.

3.        Verify that the fan tray is fully seated. You can remove the fan tray and then install it again.

4.        Verify that the empty interface module slots and power module slots are installed with filler panels. If not, install filler panels for them to guarantee good ventilation.

5.        If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.

MPU failure

Symptom

The RUN LED is off.

Solution

To resolve the issue:

1.        Verify that the power module operates correctly. For more information, see "Power supply system failure."

2.        Verify that the MPU is fully seated. You can remove the MPU and then install it again, and make sure the MPU is fully seated.

3.        Press the RESET button of the MPU to reset the MPU. After the MPU is reset, verify that the corresponding RUN LED is on.

4.        If the gateway has empty MPU slots, install the MPU into an empty MPU slot, and verify that the MPU can operate correctly.

5.        If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.

Interface module, service module, or switching fabric module failure

Symptom

The RUN LED on the MPU for a card is off.

Solution

To resolve the issue:

1.        Verify that the MPU is operating correctly. For more information, see "MPU failure."

2.        Verify that the software version is compatible with the card. If not, upgrade the software to a compatible version.

3.        Calculate the total power consumption, and make sure your power modules can provide enough power. For more information, see "Appendix B FRUs and compatibility matrixes."

4.        Verify that the card is fully seated. You can remove the card, install it again, and press the ejector levers inward until the ejector levers touch the panel tightly.

5.        If the gateway has empty card slots, plug the card into an empty card slot, and verify that the card can operate correctly.

6.        If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.

Interface failure

Symptom

The LED of an interface connected to the network is off.

Solution

To resolve the issue:

1.        Verify that the MPU, interface module, or service module where the interface resides operates correctly. For more information, see "MPU failure" or "Interface module, service module, or switching fabric module failure."

2.        Examine the cable connection of the interface. For how to correctly connect the cable to an Ethernet interface with an RJ-45 connector or an optical interface, see "Connecting network cables."

3.        Verify that the cable is in good condition. Use the cable to connect two interfaces of the same type that operate correctly. If the LEDs of the two interfaces are on, the cable is in good condition. If they are not on, the cable has failed. Use a compliant cable to connect the interface. For more information about the compliant cables, see "Appendix E Cables."

4.        If the interface uses a transceiver module, make sure the interface type is compatible with the transceiver and that the transceiver is compatible with the cable. For more information, see "Appendix B FRUs and compatibility matrixes."

5.        If the interface uses a transceiver, make sure the current transceiver operates correctly by replacing a normal transceiver.

6.        If the interface is a combo interface, make sure the port used for connection is activated. If the port is not activated, use the combo enable { copper | fiber } command to activate the port, and verify the LED.

A combo interface is a logical interface that contains one fiber port and one copper port. The two ports share one interface view and cannot work simultaneously. When you enable either port, the other port is automatically disabled. You can activate either port as needed. The default operating port is the copper port.

7.        Verify that the speed and duplex settings of the interfaces of a link are the same. Make sure that two interfaces can work together.

8.        If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.

 

 

NOTE:

·      If a port is brought down by the shutdown command, use the undo shutdown command to bring up the interface.

·      A management Ethernet interface or XFP interface each has two LEDs, LINK and ACT. The LED mentioned in this section for such an interface refers to the LINK LED. Each interface of any other type has only one LED.

·      When an interface fails, if the gateway has an idle interface of the same type, you can install the cable into the idle interface.

Module power consumption and system power consumption

Card power consumption

The power consumption of the cards depends on the card model and state. Table 13 shows the power consumption for different card models.

·          The static power consumption of a card refers to the power consumed by the card when the card is running but all ports on the card are down and when no transceiver module is available on the optical interface of the card.

·          The dynamic power consumption of a card refers to the power consumed by the card when all the ports on the card are link up and send broadcasts.

Fan tray power consumption

The gateway uses fans with the automatic speed adjustment function. The fan speed is automatically adjusted based on the heat dissipation condition of the gateway. The power consumed by a fan tray depends on the fan speed. Table 14 shows the power consumption of different fan trays.

System power consumption

The system power consumption of the gateway depends on the type and number of cards and the fan tray power consumption.

·          The minimum system power consumption is the total static power consumption of all cards plus the minimum fan tray power consumption.

·          The maximum system power consumption is the total dynamic power consumption of all cards plus the maximum fan tray power consumption.

For example, for an M9006 gateway that has two MPUs NSQ1SUPB0s, one service module NSQ1FWCEA0 , two switching fabric modules NSQ1FAB04B0s, and one fan tray, the minimum system power consumption of the gateway is 2 x 45 + 1 x 109 + 2 x 48 + 12=307 W, and the maximum system power consumption of the gateway is 2 × 50 + 1 × 157 + 2 × 65 + 240 = 627 W.

Heat dissipation

Heat dissipation is measured in BTU/h, and 1 W equals 3.4121BTU/h.

The heat dissipation of a gateway depends on its power consumption. To calculate heat dissipation of the gateway, assume 90% power consumption is converted to heat, and the efficiency of the power module is 90%. Heat dissipation/hour of the gateway is 0.9 × (total power consumption of the cards plus power consumption of the fan tray)/0.9 × 3.4121.

For the power consumption of the cards and fan trays of the M9000 gateways, see "Module power consumption and system power consumption."

To ensure normal communication, the pins for sending data on one port should correspond to the pins for receiving data on the peer port. When both of the ports on the two devices are MDI or MDIX, a crossover Ethernet cable is needed. When one port is MDI and the other is MDIX, a straight-through Ethernet cable is needed.

If an RJ-45 Ethernet interface with MDI/MDIX autosensing enabled can automatically negotiate pin roles. The M9000 RJ-45 Ethernet interfaces support MDI/MDIX. By default, MDI/MDIX is enabled on a port.

Making an Ethernet twisted pair cable

1.        Cut the cable to a required length with the crimping pliers.

2.        Strip off an appropriate length of the cable sheath. The length is typically that of the RJ-45 connector.

3.        Untwist the pairs so that they can lie flat, and arrange the colored wires based on the wiring specifications.

4.        Cut the top of the wires even with one another. Insert the wires into the RJ-45 end and make sure the wires extend to the front of the RJ-45 end and make good contact with the metal contacts in the RJ-45 end and in the correct order.

5.        Crimp the RJ-45 connector with the crimping pliers until you hear a click.

6.        Repeat the above steps with the other end of the cable.

7.        Use a cable tester to verify the connectivity of the cable.

Optical fiber

 

CAUTION

CAUTION:

Use the same types of transceiver modules, pigtail cords, patch cords, and fiber cables. If you use single-mode optical fibers, the transceiver modules, pigtail cords, patch cords, and fiber cables must be single-mode.

 

Optical fiber

Optical fibers are widely used in fiber-optic communications, which are advantageous for long-distance communications.

Optical fibers can be classified into the following types:

·          Single mode fiberIt has a core size of 10 µm or smaller, and has a lower modal dispersion. It carries only a single ray of light. It is mostly used for communication over longer distances.

·          Multi-mode fiberIt has a core size of 50 µm or 62.5 µm or higher, and has a higher modal dispersion than single-mode optical fiber. It is mostly used for communication over shorter distances.

Optical fiber cable

An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or more optical fibers. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube. Optical fiber cables fall into single-mode and multi-mode.

Patch cord

A fiber that has connectors at both ends is called a patch cord. A patch cord connects one optical device to another for signal routing. Patch cords fall into single-mode and multi-mode patch cords.

·          Single-mode patch cordThe jacket is yellow. It permits transmission over longer distances.

·          Multi-mode patch cordThe jacket is orange. It permits transmission over shorter distances.

Patch cords are classified into SC, LC, FC, and so on based on interface type. The length of a patch cord can be 0.5 m (1.64 ft), 1 m (3.28 ft), 2 m (6.56 ft), 3 m (9.84 ft), 5 m (16.40 ft), 10 m (32.81 ft), and so on.

Pigtail cord

A pigtail cord is an optical fiber that has an optical connector on one end and a length of exposed fiber on the other. The end of the pigtail is fusion spliced to a fiber, connecting the fiber cable and transceiver.

Pigtail cords fall into single-mode (yellow) and multi-mode (orange), and can also be classified into SC, LC, FC, and so on based on interface type.

Fiber connector

Fiber connectors are indispensable passive components in an optical fiber communication system. They allow the removable connection between optical channels, which makes the optical system debugging and maintenance more convenient and the transit dispatching of the system more flexible.

Figure 47 SC connector

 

Figure 48 LC connector

 

Figure 49 MPO connector

 

Precautions

·          Make sure the fiber connector and fiber type match the transceiver module type.

·          The fiber ports on some cards have shielded covers. Remove the shielded covers before using the fiber ports. Fiber interfaces must be installed with shielded covers when they are not in use. Keep them safely.

·          Fiber connectors must be protected under safe and reliable outer packing, and be fitted with dust caps. Fiber connectors must be installed with dust caps when they are not in use. Take care not to scratch their end face. Replace the dust cap if it is loose or polluted.

·          Before connecting a fiber, use dust free paper and absolute alcohol to clean the end face of the fiber connector. You can brush the end face only in one direction. You also need to brush the end face of the fiber port.

·          Never bend or curve a fiber when connecting it. After a fiber is installed well, the bend radius must be not less than 40 mm (the minimum dynamic bend radius is 20 D, and the minimum static bend radius is 10 D. D indicates the outer diameter of dust caps).

·          If the fiber has to pass through a metallic board hole, the hole must have a sleek and fully filleted surface (the filleting radius must be not less than 2 mm). When passing through a metallic board hole or bending along the acute side of mechanical parts, the fiber must wear jackets or cushions.

·          Insert and remove a plug with care. Never exert a fierce force to the fiber or plug; otherwise the plug may be damaged or the fiber may be broken. Never pull, press or extrude the fiber fiercely. For the allowed maximum tensile load and crush load, see Table 57.

 


Appendix F Cabling recommendations

When an M9000 gateway is mounted in a 19-inch standard rack, the interface cables are routed through the cable management brackets, bound at cabling racks on chassis sides, and then routed up or down to pass through the chassis top or the raised floor, depending on the available equipment room condition. The power cords run along the two sides of the chassis and out of the chassis either from the chassis top or the raised floor depending on the equipment room conditions (power distribution cabinet, lightning protection box, and connector strip, and so on) of the exchange office.

General cabling requirements

Minimum curvature radius of cables

·          The curvature radius of an attached power cord, communication cable, or ribbon cable should be at least five times the cable’s outer diameter. If the cable is frequently bent, plugged and unplugged, the curvature radius should be at least seven times the cable's outer diameter.

·          The curvature radius of an ordinary attached coaxial cable should be at least seven times of the cable's outer diameter. If the coaxial cable is frequently bent, plugged and unplugged, the curvature radius should be at least 10 times the cable's outer diameter.

Minimum curvature radius of fibers

·          When the fiber is wrapped up around the cabling plate, the diameter of the cabling plate should be at least 25 times the fiber's diameter.

·          When the fiber is being moved, the curvature radius of the fiber should be at least 20 times the fiber's diameter.

·          When the fiber is attached, the curvature radius of the fiber should be at least 10 times the fiber's diameter.

 

 

NOTE:

The fiber's diameter refers to the outer diameter of the fiber jacket. Typically, the diameter of a single-core fiber is 0.9 mm (0.04 in), 2.0 mm (0.08 in), or 3.0 mm (0.12 in).

 

Prerequisites

Label cables before you route or bundle them.

Cable management guidelines

When you route and bundle up cables, follow these guidelines:

·          Bind and route the cables neatly inside the rack, and make sure they are not kinked or bent.

Figure 50 Correct and incorrect cable binding

 

·          The cable bend radius at connectors must be at least 5 times the cable diameter, and must be at least twice the cable diameter away from the connectors.

·          Route different types of cables (for example, power cords and signal cables) separately. If they are close to one another, cross them over one another. If you route them in parallel, make sure the space between a power cord bundle and a signal cable bundle is at least 30 mm (1.18 in).

·          The cable management brackets and cable routing slots, inside or outside the rack, are smooth and have no sharp edges or tips.

·          When you route cables through sharp sheet metal penetration points or along sharp edges of mechanical parts, use bushings or take any other action to protect the cables from being cut or abraded. The sheet metal penetration points must be smooth and fully rounded.

·          Use the correct type of ties to bind the cables. Do not bind cables with joined ties. The following types of ties are available: 100 × 2.5 mm (3.94 × 0.10 in), 150 × 3.6 mm (5.91 × 0.14 in), 300 × 3.6 mm (11.81 × 0.14 in), 530 × 9 mm (20.87 × 0.35 in), and 580 × 13 mm (22.83 × 0.51 in).

·          After binding the cables, cut the excess from the ties, leaving no sharp or angular tips. See Figure 51.

Figure 51 Cutting cable ties

电缆捆扎示范2

 

·          When you bend cables, bind them as shown in Figure 52. To avoid excessive stress causing cable core break, do not tie up the cables in the bending area.

Figure 52 Binding cables where they must be bent

电缆捆扎示范3

 

·          Route, bind, and attach excess cables for easy, safe maintenance activities and correct operations.

·          Do not tie power cords to slide rails.

·          When you connect a cable to an articulated part, for example, when you connect a grounding cable to a cabinet door, leave enough slack in cables and make sure they are not stressed from any movement of the part.

·          Cables must be protected at points where they might rub or come in contact with sharp edges or heated areas. Use high temperature cables near heat sources.

·          Securely fasten cables and take adequate measures to prevent loose connections.

Figure 53 Securely fastening cables

(1) Flat washer

(2) Spring washer

(3) Nut

 

·          Fasten heavy or rigid power cords at the connectors to relief stress.

·          Do not use tapping screws to fasten the connecting terminals.

·          Bind together cables that are the same type and routed in the same direction.

Table 58 lists the cable bundling specifications.

·          Do not tie cables or bundles in a knot.

·          The metal parts of the crimped cold-pressed terminal blocks (such as circuit breaker) cannot protrude beyond the blocks.

 

 


Appendix G Repackaging the gateway

This chapter describes how to repackage the gateway chassis, power module, card, mounting bracket, cable management bracket, and air filter.

Removing cables from the gateway

Before repackaging the gateway, remove all cables such as the power cord, console cable, twisted pair, optical fiber, and grounding cable from the gateway.

Removing the power cord

1.        Switch off the circuit breakers at the input end of all power cords.

2.        Wear an ESD wrist strap, and make sure it has a good skin contact and is correctly grounded.

For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

3.        Remove the power cord plug:

¡  AC power cordRemove the cable tie that secures the power cord, and then pull out the plug.

¡  DC power cordRemove the cable tie that secures the power cord, loosen the fastening screw on the power cord, and then pull out the plug.

Removing the console cable

1.        Pull the RJ-45 connector of the console cable out from the console port of the gateway.

2.        Pull the DB-9 connector of the console cable out from the serial port of the PC.

Removing the grounding cable

2.        Loosen the screws at the grounding hole on the grounding terminal of the cabinet, and remove the other end of the grounding cable (with a ring terminal), as shown in callout 2 of Figure 54. .

Figure 54 Removing the grounding cable

 

Removing the twisted pair and optical fiber

You must remove twisted pairs and optical fibers from all the interfaces of the gateway.

 

 

NOTE:

After pulling out an optical fiber from an optical transceiver module, cover the connector of the optical fiber with a dust cap to keep the connector clean.

 

Repackaging the gateway accessories

Repackaging the power module

CAUTION

CAUTION:

Before removing a power module, switch off the circuit breakers at the input end of all power cords, and remove all the power cords to avoid device damage and bodily injury.

 

To repackage a power module:

1.        Prepare the packing bag and box of the power module. Make sure the bag is clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.        Remove all power modules from the chassis, and then install blank filler panels to the empty slots.

For how to remove a power module and install a blank filler panel, see "Replacing a power module."

3.        Put the power module into the bag.

4.        Put the packed power module into the box. Place the power module in a correct direction onto the foam cushion in the box; otherwise, the power module cannot be completely seated into the foam cushion.

Repackaging the card

1.        Prepare the anti-static bag and box of the card. Make sure the bag is clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.        Remove the transceiver modules from the card. If no transceiver module is installed on the card, go to the next step.

For how to remove a transceiver module, see "Replacing a transceiver module."

3.        Remove all cards from the chassis slots, and install blank filler panels to the empty slots.

For how to remove a card and install a blank filler panel, see "Replacing a card."

4.        Put the card into the anti-static bag. The switching fabric module on an M9010/M9010-GM/M9014 gateway has a protection box. Put the switching fabric module into the protection box, and then put the box into the anti-static bag.

5.        Put the packed card into the box, and tape the flaps of the box with packing tape. Place the card in a correct direction onto the foam cushion in the box; otherwise, the power module cannot be completely seated into the foam cushion.

Repackaging the gateway chassis

Removing the chassis from the rack

M9000 gateways are heavy. If possible, use a mechanical lift to move the gateway.

To remove the chassis from the rack:

1.        Prepare the wooden carton and packing bag of the chassis. Make sure the carton and bag are clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.        Remove the top cap and side panels from the wooden carton, and put the pallet base to a secure place.

3.        Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws that attach the mounting brackets to the rack.

4.        Use at least two persons to slide the chassis outwards along the slide rails. When most part of the chassis is removed from the slide rails, lift up the chassis by holding the handles at the chassis sides to completely remove the chassis from the rack.

Figure 55 Removing the chassis (M9006) from the rack

 

5.        Put the chassis onto the pallet base of the wooden carton.

Removing the air filter

1.        Prepare the packing bag of the air filter. Make sure the bag is clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.        Remove the air filter from the side of the chassis.

For how to remove an air filter, see "Replacing an air filter."

3.        Put the air filter into the bag.

Removing cable management brackets and mounting brackets

Before repackaging the gateway chassis, remove the cable management brackets and mounting brackets from the chassis.

Removing the mounting brackets

1.        Prepare the packing box of the mounting brackets. Make sure the box is clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.        As shown in Figure 56, use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws that attach the mounting brackets to the chassis, and then remove the mounting brackets.

Figure 56 Removing the mounting brackets from the chassis (M9006)

 

3.        Put the mounting brackets into the box.

Removing the cable management brackets

The M9010/M9010-GM gateway has two cable management brackets—the one on the chassis bottom routes power cords, and the one on the chassis top routes signal cables.

The M9006/M9014 gateway provides a cable management bracket at the chassis bottom to route power cords. The procedure for removing the cable management bracket on an M9006, M9014, and M9010 are the same.

This section takes removing a cable management bracket from an M9010 gateway as an example.

To remove the cable management brackets:

1.        Prepare the packing bag of the cable management brackets. Make sure the bag is clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.        Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws that attach the cable management brackets to the chassis, and then remove the cable management brackets.

3.        Put the cable management brackets into the bag.
