• The MPUs and interface modules provide port status LEDs, with which you can detect port failures. For more information about port status LEDs, see H3C CR19000-20 Core Router Hardware Information and Specifications. If you cannot locate failures by following the guidelines in this chapter, contact the local agents or technical support engineers.
When a power supply is faulty, the OK LED is off and the FAIL LED is on. • On the power supply, the INPUT OK LED or the OUTPUT OK LED is red. For more information about the LEDs, see H3C CR19000-20 Core Router Hardware Information and Specifications. NOTE: After a power supply is removed from the router, the input and output LEDs on the power supply stay on for several seconds.
You can determine the power supply status by observing the LEDs on the power supply. For information about the power supply LEDs, see H3C CR19000-20 Core Router Hardware Information and Specifications. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support.
Calculate the total power consumption, and make sure your power supplies can provide enough power. For more information, see H3C CR19000-20 Core Router Hardware Information and Specifications.

Appendix A Engineering labels Engineering labels are used to identify cables and devices for correct installation and easy maintenance. Two types of engineering labels are available: labels for cables and labels for devices. Labels for cables Cables include signal cables such as network cables and fibers, and power cords such as AC power cords and DC power cords.
Figure10-2 Label for power cords (1) Cable tie (2) Dividing line on the label Generic labels A generic label is bar-shaped with fixed dimensions. It is applicable to both signal cables and power cords. A mark "TO:" is located at the upper left corner in the right area of the label to identify the peer end of the cable on which the label is affixed.
Figure10-3 Generic label (1) Dividing line on the label (2) Cut dotted line Labels for devices A device label is used to identify the device name, model, address, and installation date. Filling in labels You can print or write desired contents on labels. As a best practice, print labels. To print labels, select a label printer and a proper label template as needed.
Figure10-4 Affixing a label Adhesive side B02 03 12 Figure10-5 shows the affixed labels when the cable is laid vertically and horizontally. Figure10-5 Affixed labels Affixing a label to a power cord Stick the label to the recessed rectangular area on the identification plate. You can stick the label to either side of the identification plate.
Figure10-6 Affixing a label B03 -48V2 Bind cable ties on both ends of a cable. After the bundling, the finished identification plate must be on top of the cable in horizontal cabling, or on the right side of the cable in vertical cabling. Make sure the label is facing out, as shown in Figure10-7.

Engineering labels for optical fibers These labels are affixed to optical fibers that connect the fiber ports on the modules in a chassis, or connect fiber ports on fixed-port devices. Two types of labels are available for optical fibers: labels for a fiber that connects the fiber ports on two devices, labels for a fiber that connects the device and the optical distribution frame (ODF).

Appendix B Cable management General cabling requirements Minimum curvature radius of cables • Attached power cord, communication cable, or ribbon cable—A minimum of five times the cable’s outer diameter. If the cable is frequently bent, connected and removed, the curvature radius must be a minimum of seven times the cable's outer diameter.
Page 126
• Route different types of cables (power cords and signal cables for example) separately. If they are close to one another, cross them over one another. If you route them in parallel, keep a minimum distance of 30 mm (1.18 in) between a power cord bundle and a signal cable bundle. •...
• Cables must be protected at points where they might rub or come in contact with sharp edges or heated areas. Use high temperature cables near heat sources. • Securely fasten cables and take adequate measures to prevent loose connections.

Figure11-5 Routing MPU cables Routing fabric module cables As a best practice, route the fabric module cables along the nearest cable management fingers and cable management brackets. For example, the router is installed with CR-19K-MSFU-20C fabric modules. As shown in Figure11-6, each CR-19K-MSFU-20C fabric module has 6 groups of ports, with 3 groups on the upper half of the module and 3 groups on the lower half.
• Cables from the fabric modules in slots 25 to 27 (right slots)—Right cable management bracket. Figure11-6 Routing fabric module cables (CR-19K-MSFU-20C) Routing interface module cables For easy maintenance, route cables from ports on the left part of an interface module along the left cable management bracket and cables from ports on the right part along the right cable management bracket.
Figure11-7 Routing interface module cables Routing power cords CAUTION: To protect cable adapters and converters, place them at the cabinet bottom. Do not place them at a location out of the cabinet and easy to reach. IMPORTANT: For maintenance convenience, make sure the power cords do not block the power switch and fan trays on the rear panel.
