10 Appendix C Repacking the switch

This chapter describes how to repack the switch chassis, power modules, and cards.

Removing cables from the switch

Before repacking the switch, remove all cables such as the power cords, console cable, twisted pair cables, optical fibers, and grounding cable from the switch.

Removing the power cords

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

2.     Wear an ESD wrist strap, and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.

For more information, see "Installing FRUs."

3.     Remove power cords.

¡     For an AC power cord, remove the cable tie, and then remove the power cord connector from the power module.

¡     For a DC power cord, loosen the screws on the power cord connector, and then remove the connector from the power module.

4.     Perform the same step to remove the other power cords.

Removing the console cable

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

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

Removing the grounding cable

1.     Loosen the two screws at the grounding holes (located at the upper right of the power distribution box on the rear panel and marked with a grounding sign) of the chassis, as shown by callout 2 in Figure10-1, and then remove the grounding cable from the chassis.

2.     Use a wrench to loosen the hex nut on the grounding post of the grounding strip, and remove the other end of the grounding cable (with a ring terminal) from the grounding post, as shown by callout 3 in Figure10-1.

(3) Loosen the hex nut on the grounding post of the grounding strip

 

Removing the twisted pair cables and optical fibers

You must remove all twisted pair cables and optical fibers from the interfaces of the switch.

 

 

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.

 

Repacking the FRUs

Repacking power modules

CAUTION

CAUTION:

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

 

To repack power modules:

1.     Prepare the original packing materials, including the anti-static bag, foam cushion, and packing box for a power module. Make sure these packing materials are clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.     Remove the power module from the chassis.

For more information, see "Replacement procedures."

3.     Put the removed power module into the anti-static bag.

4.     Place the foam cushion over the power module.

5.     Place the power module and the foam cushion in the packing box, and seal the box with tape.

6.     Perform the same steps to repack the other power modules.

Repacking the cards

1.     Prepare the original packing materials, including the anti-static shielding bag, foam cushion, and packing box, for a card. Make sure these packing materials are clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.     Remove the transceiver modules from the card.

If no transceiver module is installed, skip this step.

For information about how to remove a transceiver module, see "Replacement procedures."

3.     Remove the card from the chassis slot.

¡     After you remove an S12500-X LPU, you must remove the interface module adapter from the slot and repack the interface module adapter by using the original packing materials. If a filler panel is provided for the card slot, install the filler panel in the slot after you remove the chassis from the rack.

For information about how to remove a card, remove an interface module adapter, and install a filler panel, see "Replacement procedures."

4.     Put the removed card into the anti-static bag.

The cards on the switch have protection boxes. Put the removed card into the protection box, and then put the box into the anti-static bag.

5.     Place the foam cushion over the card.

6.     Put the card and the foam cushion into the box, and seal the box with tape.

7.     Perform the same steps to repack the other cards.

 

 

NOTE:

The switch comes with a filler panel in all slots except the switching fabric module slots.

 

Repacking the interface module adapters

1.     Prepare the original packing materials, including the packing bag, foam cushion, and packing box, for an interface module adapter. Make sure these packing materials are clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.     Remove the interface module adapter. For more information, see "Replacement procedures."

3.     Place the removed interface module adapter in the packing bag.

4.     Place the foam cushion over the packing bag.

5.     Place the interface module adapter and the foam cushion in the packing box, and seal the box with tape.

6.     Perform the same steps to repack the other interface module adapters.

Repacking the switching fabric module slot filler panels

1.     Prepare the original packing materials, including the packing bag, foam cushion, and packing box, for a switching fabric module slot filler panel. Make sure these packing materials are clean, dry, and not damaged.

2.     Remove the switching fabric module slot filler panel. For more information, see "Replacement procedures."

3.     Place the removed switching fabric module slot filler panel in the packing bag.

4.     Place the foam cushion over the packing bag.

5.     Place the switching fabric module slot filler panel and the foam cushion in the packing box, and seal the box with tape.

6.     Perform the same steps to repack the other switching fabric module slot filler panels.

Repacking the switch chassis

Removing the chassis from the rack

The switch is heavy. Use a mechanical lift to move the switch.

To remove the chassis from the rack:

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

2.     Put the wooden pallet base to a proper place.

3.     As shown in callout 1 in Figure10-2, use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws that attach the mounting brackets to the rack.

4.     As shown in callout 2 in Figure10-2, cooperate with a minimum of four people 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.

5.     Put the chassis onto the wooden pallet base.

(1) Loosen the captive screws that attach the mounting brackets to the rack

(2) Chassis handles

(3) Slide the chassis out of the rack along the slide rails

 

Repacking the switch chassis

1.     Align the left and right edges of the chassis bottom with the left and right positioning lines respectively on the wooden pallet base. See Figure10-3 for the wooden pallet base.

(5) Front of the base (same direction as the front panel of the chassis)

 

2.     Use screws to attach L-type brackets to the chassis, as shown by callout 2 in Figure10-4.

3.     Move the chassis so that the mounting holes on the horizontal ear of the L-type brackets align with the mounting holes on the wooden pallet base. Use screws to attach the L-type brackets to the wooden pallet base, as shown by callout 3 in Figure10-4.

4.     Cover the chassis with the packing bag from the top down, and then tape the bag to the plastic cover of pallet base.

5.     Erect one paper angle bead along each vertical edge of the chassis, and use the carton to cover the chassis from top down with the mark side facing the front panel of the chassis

6.     Cover the foam cushion to the chassis top, and make sure the mounting brackets seat into the internal notches of the foam cushion. See callout 2 of Figure10-5.

7.     Put the box of packed accessories into the notch of the foam cushion that is near to the rear end of the chassis, as shown in callout 3 of Figure10-5.

8.     Cover the top cap to the carton.
