Installing FRUs

There is no required order for installing FRUs. As a best practice, connect power cords after FRUs installation are complete.

 

	NOTE: Keep the packages of the chassis and components for future use.

 

Attaching an ESD wrist strap

The CR16000-F router is shipped with an ESD wrist strap. To minimize ESD damage to electronic components, wear the 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.     Put on 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, insert the ESD wrist strap into the ESD port on the router chassis, or attach it to the grounding post of the chassis with an alligator clip.

Figure 1 Attaching an ESD wrist strap

 

Installing MPUs/service modules/switching fabric modules

CAUTION: ·     Before installing a card, make sure the connectors on the card are not broken or blocked to avoid damaging the backplane. ·     To ensure good ventilation, install a filler panel over an empty MPU, service module, or switching fabric module slot. MPU slots and service module slots use the same type of filler panels. ·     The switching fabric modules for the CR16010-F, CR16014-F,  CR16010H-F, CR16010H-FA,CR16018-FA, and CR16018-F routers each are shipped with a protection box. Before you install these switching fabric modules, pull the ejector levers on the module outwards, and then pull the module out of the protection box. ·     When installing a universal open application platform on a CR16006-F, a CR16010-F, or a CR16014-F router, install the provided slot adapter above the platform. The slot adapter occupies two slots. The installation method for a slot adapter is the same as a filler panel.

 

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

The card slots on the router 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. The following procedure installs a card in a horizontal slot.

To install a card in a horizontal slot:

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

Keep the filler panel secure for future use.

Some card slots do not have a filler panel. The figures in this section are for illustration only.

3.     Remove the air duct above the module slot. (This step is required only when you install a service module with a height of 1.2U on the router that has air ducts.)

Figure 2 Removing an air duct

 

4.     Press the ejector levers down so that they are vertical to the front panel. (This step applies only to ejector levers similar to those on a CSPEX-1504X card.)

5.     Open the locking clip or micro switch, if any, on the module.

6.     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.

7.     When most part of the card is inserted in the slot, pull the ejector levers on the card outward.

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

9.     Press the ejector levers inward until the ejector levers touch the panel tightly and the card seats into the backplane

10.     Push the ejector levers up to its original position. (This step applies only to ejector levers similar to those on a CSPEX-1504X card.)

11.     Close the locking clip or micro switch, if any, on the module.

12.     Fasten the captive screws on the card.

13.     When the router is powered on, check the running status of the card.

You can determine the running status of a card by observing the card status LED (SLOT) on the MPU of the router. If the RUN LED blinks, the card in the slot operates correctly. For more information about card status LED (SLOT), see H3C CR16000-F Router Series Hardware Information and Specifications.

Installing a subcard

CAUTION: ·     To ensure good ventilation, install filler panels in unused slots. ·     All subcards except for the MIC-SM are hot swappable.

 

This section describes how to install a subcard on an SPEX or MPE base card. A base card and a card use the same installation procedure. For the card installation procedure, see "Installing MPUs/service modules/switching fabric modules".

To install a subcard:

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.     Identify whether the subcard is hot swappable.

¡     If the subcard is not hot swappable, make sure the base card is powered off.

¡     If the subcard is hot swappable, make sure the base card is installed on the router.

3.     Unpack the subcard.

4.     Remove the filler panel (if any) from the target slot on the base card.

Keep the removed filler panel secure for future use.

5.     Open the ejector levers of the subcard, and 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.

6.     Push the front panel of the subcard forward. Then close the ejector levers so that the subcard is flush with the base card.

7.     Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the screws on the subcard.
