Rack Space Requirements
I
You can install the router into a center-mount,
front-mount, or telco (4-post) rack or cabinet.
I
The holes in the mounting ears are spaced
at 2 U (3.5 in./8.89 cm).
I
The rack must be large enough to hold
the router and strong enough to support
its weight (up to 65 lb/29.5 kg).

Unpack the Router
1. Move the shipping carton as close to the
installation site as possible.
2. Position the box with the arrows facing up.
3. Open the top flaps of the shipping carton.
4. Remove the accessory box.
5. Verify that you have received all parts on
the packing list.
6. Pull out the packing material holding the
router in place.
7. Save the shipping carton and packing

Install the Router into the Rack
Lifting the chassis and mounting it into the rack requires two people to lift and a third person
to secure the mounting screws. The chassis weighs up to 65 lbs/29.5 kg.
1. Make sure the rack is properly secured to the building in its permanent location.
2. Determine the type of rack (center-mount, front-mount, or four-post) into which the router
will be installed.
3. If you are mounting the router into a front-mount or four-post rack:
I
Move the rack-mounting ears from the center to the front of the chassis, securing
them to the chassis with the screws.
I
Install the mounting shelf as specified in Step 3b. (for front-mount racks) or Step 3c.
(for four-post cabinets) below.
4. One person at each side of the chassis grasps the front and side of the chassis under the
card cage. Lift the chassis and position it in the rack.
5. Starting at the bottom of the rack, align one of the mounting holes in the rack with the bottom
mounting hole in the chassis rack-mounting ear.
6. Level the chassis so that the same mounting hole on the other rack-mounting ear is aligned with a hole on the opposite post of the rack.
7. From the front of the rack, install a mounting screw into each of the two aligned holes.
8. Moving up the rack-mounting ears, install screws in each mounting hole on the ear until you reach the top.
3a. Install the router into a center-mount rack:
3c. Install the router into a four-post cabinet:
I
Before installing the router, install the
mounting shelf onto the cabinet or rack,
attaching it to the rear post facing the
front of the cabinet. The router rests on
the shelf, which helps support its
weight.
3b. Install the router into a front-mount rack:
I
Before installing the router, install the mounting
shelf onto the rack, attaching it to the rear of the
front-mount post. The router rests on the shelf,
which helps support its weight.
I
Be sure to attach the shelf to the rear of
the post, not the front. The shelf might be
wider than the space between the posts
of the rack.

Connect External Devices and PIC Cables
Connect to a network for out-of-band management:
1. Plug one end of the provided Ethernet cable into the
MGMT
port on the craft interface.
2. Plug the other end into the networking device.
Connect a
management console:
1. Turn off the power to
the management
console.
2. Plug the provided
RS-232 (EIA-232)
serial cable into the
CONSOLE
port on the
craft interface.
3. Tighten the screws on
the connector.
Connect the PIC
cables:
Do not look
directly into the cable connector ports on a PIC or into the ends of fiber-optic cables.
Fiber-optic cables emit laser light that can damage your eyes.
1. Locate the appropriate cable to be connected to each PIC.
2. Insert the cable connector into the cable connector port on the PIC.
3. Arrange the cables in the cable management system to protect them from dislodging or bending past their
recommended bend radius.
5
Connect Ground and Power Cables
Connect AC power cords:
The figure shows a DC-powered router only.
1. Verify that the switch on the power supply faceplate is in the
OFF
position.
2. Locate the AC power cord provided,
which should have a plug
appropriate for your location.
3. Insert the appliance coupler on
the power cord into the faceplate
and insert the plug into a power
source receptacle.
4. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for the
second power supply.
Connect DC power supplies:
1. Ensure that the voltage across the DC power source cables is 0 V and that
the cable leads will not become active during installation.
2. Attach the grounding lug to the screw on the back of the chassis, next to the ground symbol. Be sure to
attach the ground before connecting the power cables.
3. Verify that the switch on the power supply is in the
OFF
position.
4. If necessary, strip the input and return ends of the power cables.
5. Thread the power cables through the cable holder on the right side of the power supply faceplate.
6. Push the exposed ends of the power cables straight into the quick connect terminals on the power supply:
I
Connect the positive (+) cable lugs to the
RTN
(return) terminals.
I
Connect the negative (–) cable lugs to the
–48 V
(input) terminals.
7. Tighten the screws directly above the attached power cables to secure the cables.
8. Repeat Steps 3 through 7 for the second power supply.
9. Verify that the power and ground cabling are correct.
