Installing FRUs

There is no required order for installing FRUs. As a best practice, connect power cords after completing installing all required FRUs.

Keep the chassis and the component packages for future use.

Attaching an ESD wrist strap

The router is provided with an ESD wrist strap. To minimize ESD damage to electronic components, wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it is reliably grounded when installing modules.

To use an ESD wrist strap:

1.     Make sure the router is reliably grounded. For how to ground your router, see "Grounding the router."

2.     Wear the wrist strap.

3.     Tighten the wrist strap to keep good skin contact. Make sure the resistance reading between your body and the ground is between 1 and 10 megohms.

4.     As shown in Figure 1, attach the ESD wrist strap to the chassis by either of the following methods:

¡     Insert the ESD wrist strap into the ESD socket on the chassis.

¡     Attach the ESD wrist strap to the grounding post of the chassis with an alligator clip.

Figure 1 Attaching an ESD wrist strap (SR8805-F)

 

Installing MPUs/service modules

	CAUTION: Before installing a card in the chassis, make sure the connectors on the card are not broken or blocked to avoid damaging the backplane.

 

	IMPORTANT: ·     To ensure good ventilation, install a filler panel over an empty MPU or service module slot. MPU slots use different filler panels than service module slots. ·     The MPUs and service modules of the router are shipped with protection boxes. Before you install an MPU or service module, pull the ejector levers on the card outward, and then pull it out of the protection box.

 

The MPUs and service modules available for the router are hot swappable. The installation procedure is similar for MPUs and service modules. Unless otherwise stated, MPUs and service modules are collectively referred to as "cards" in this document.

To install a card:

1.     Wear an ESD wrist strap, and make sure it has a good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.     Remove the filler panel (if any) from the slot. Keep the filler panel for future use.

3.     Press the ejector levers down to the horizontal level.

Skip this if the card to be installed is not a base card.

4.     As shown by callout 1 in Figure 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.

5.     As shown by callout 2 in Figure 2, when most part of the card is inserted in the slot, press the ejector levers on the card outward.

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

7.     As shown by callout 3 in Figure 2, press the ejector levers inward until the ejector levers touch the panel tightly and the card seats into the backplane.

8.     As shown by callout 4 in Figure 2, fasten the captive screws on the card.

9.     Push the ejector levers up to the vertical level.

Skip this if the card to be installed is not a base card.

10.     When the router is powered on, verify the running status of the card by using either of the following methods:

¡     Examine the card status LED (SLOT) on the MPU. If the RUN LED flashes, the card in the slot operates correctly. For more information about card status LED (SLOT), see "Card status LEDs."

¡     Verify the card operating status at the CLI. For more information, see device management in H3C SR8800-F Routers Fundamentals Command Reference.

Figure 2 Installing a card (MPU)

 

Installing a subcard

	CAUTION: To ensure good ventilation, install filler panels in unused slots.

 

This section describes how to install a subcard on a base card. The base card installation procedure is the same as the card installation procedure (see "Installing MPUs/service modules").

The subcards are hot swappable.

To install a subcard:

1.     Wear an ESD wrist strap, and make sure it has a good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.     Make sure the base card is installed in the router.

3.     Unpack the subcard.

4.     Install the subcard in the base card:

a.     Remove the filler panel (if any) from the target slot on the base card, as shown by callout 1 in Figure 3.

Keep the removed filler panel secure for future use.

b.     Open the ejector levers on the subcard, as shown by callout 2 in Figure 3.

c.     Gently push the subcard (with bottom up) into the slot along the guide rails until the ejector levers of the subcard touch the base card panel, as shown by callout 3 in Figure 3.

d.     Push the front panel of the subcard forward. Then close the ejector levers so that the subcard is flush with the base card, as shown by callout 4 in Figure 3.

e.     Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the screws on the subcard, as shown by callout 5 in Figure 3.

Figure 3 Installing a subcard

 

Installing the power supply system

	WARNING! Provide a circuit breaker for each power supply.

 

	CAUTION: In case of dual grid inputs, make sure the amplitude, phase, and frequency of the input voltage of the two grids are the same.

 

The switch uses 1+1 power redundancy and supports dual grid inputs. You can supply either AC or DC power for the switch. For information about the power supplies available for the switch, see "Power supplies."

To use a power adapter, first install it in the chassis and then install power supplies in the power adapter. For how to install a power supply in a power adapter, see "Installing a power supply in the chassis."

Installing a power supply adapter

	CAUTION: Do not install power supply adapters of different models on the same switch.

 

To install a power supply adapter:

1.     Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.     Unpack the power supply adapter.

3.     Holding the adapter handle with one hand and supporting the adapter bottom with the other, slide the adapter all the way into the chassis along the guide rails. Make sure the adapter is firmly seated in the chassis and has good contact with the backplane connectors.

To avoid damaging the power supply adapter and the backplane connectors, remove the adapter, realign it with the chassis, and insert it again in case of misalignment.

4.     Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the captive screws on the adapter to secure the adapter in the chassis.

If you cannot fasten the captive screws tightly, check the adapter installation.

Installing a power supply in the chassis

CAUTION: ·     Before installing a power supply, make sure the switch on the power supply is in the OFF position. ·     Do not install power supplies of different models on the same switch. ·     Make sure the outputs of the power supplies to be installed can satisfy the requirements of the switch. ·     To avoid damaging a power supply, move the power supply by supporting its bottom rather than holding its handle.

 

To install a power supply:

1.     Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it has a good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.     Remove the filler panel (if any) from the target slot.

Keep the filler panel secure for future use.

3.     Unpack the power supply, and verify that the model is correct.

4.     Insert the power supply with its upside up into the slot:

a.     Grasp the handle of the module with one hand and support the module bottom with the other.

b.     Gently push the power supply along the guide rails into the slot to firmly seat it into the backplane, as shown by callout 1 in Figure 5.

When a misalignment occurs, pull out the power supply first, and push it in again to avoid damage to the power supply and the connection terminals on the backplane.

5.     Fasten the captive screws on the power supply to secure the power supply into the chassis, as shown by callout 2 in Figure 5.

If the captive screws cannot be fastened tightly, do not fasten them forcibly. Check the power supply installation.
