Introduction Cooling Assembly Cooling Assembly Fan Tray There are 2 fan tray cassettes in the system. The cooling is performed side to side. While the fan tray is a single mechanical block, it has 2 functions: front board cooling and RTM cooling. The front and rear blanks are necessary for proper airflow.
Page 18
Introduction Cooling Assembly The following depicts the fan tray with air filter frame: To remove the fan tray: 1. Loosen the locking mechanism and move the head to the left or right (away from the fan tray). 2. Hold the head while pulling out the fan tray using the handle. To insert the fan tray: 1.
Page 19
Introduction Cooling Assembly AUTION Rotating fan blades can cause injury or cut. Keep hands clear when servicing. Allow time for fan blades to slow to a stop before fully removing. AUTION Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Equipment: To avoid damage due to electrostatic discharge, all removable cards must be stored and handled using approved ESD protective packaging.
Page 20

Introduction Power Supplies Power Supplies Up to 4 AC power supplies can be plugged in the shelf. The Blutek BPA-R850-480A power supply is shown below and features the following: Total output power 850 W-48 VDC output under 90-264 V input ...
Page 22
Introduction Power Supplies Powering the Shelf For each power supply, a separate AC inlet as well as switch is provided. Use power cords rated for currents which exceed the maximum power supply current. AUTION When working near the power supply power inlets, the shelf operating voltage falls into 90 - 264 V range.
Introduction Conventions Conventions Before using the product described in this guide, you should understand the following conventions: ARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. Do not proceed unless you understand and meet the required conditions. AUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
Safety Information Laser Safety Warnings ARNING Do not install or terminate fibers while a light source is active. Never look directly into a live fiber and ensure that your eyes are protected at all times. ARNING The use of controls, adjustments and procedures other than those specified herein may result in exposure to hazardous situations or impair the protection provided by this unit.
Safety Information Operating Cautions AUTION Use only EXFO-supplied or approved Class 1 SFP, SFP+, or XFP optical transceivers. Operating Cautions AUTION Rotating fan blades can cause injury or cut. Keep hands clear when servicing. Allow time for fan blades to slow to a stop before fully removing.
Safety Information Installation Instruction Warnings Installation Instruction Warnings Rack Mounting If rack mounted units are installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, they may require further evaluation by Certification Agencies. The following items must be considered: 1. The ambient temperature within the rack may be greater than room temperature.
Page 28
Safety Information Installation Instruction Warnings Card Installation Cards installed in the QA-805 unit are hot-swap tolerant but should only be hot-swapped when not in use by an application. Cooling To ensure optimum cooling within the chassis, all empty slots in the chassis (front and back) must be filled with the appropriate sized Filler Panel/Air Baffle.
