How to Convert a Chassis from Fixed Configuration Power to Modular Configuration Power

Power Systems Overview

There are two options for power systems: the fixed configuration power system and the modular configuration power system. Power components are not interchangeable between the fixed and modular configuration power system.

Fixed configuration power system consists of two power shelves, DC power entry modules (PEMs) or AC rectifiers, and alarm modules. It is available in versions for DC and AC power supplies. The AC version requires either 3-phase AC-Delta or 3-phase AC-Wye input power to the power shelves. It provides power sharing across power zones. The fixed configuration power system includes SNMP MIBS and XML support.

Modular configuration power system consists of two power shelves, AC or DC power modules (PMs), and alarm modules. It is available in versions for DC and AC power supplies. However, unlike the fixed configuration power system, the AC version of the modular configuration power system requires single-phase AC input power to the power shelves; there is no 3-phase AC-Wye or AC-Delta. If you have 3-phase AC Delta or AC Wye at your equipment, a Cisco CRS power distribution unit (PDU) will be required to convert 3-phase AC input power to single-phase AC input power for the power shelf. At the shelf level, the power system provides 2N redundancy; the PMs themselves provide load-share redundancy. The modular configuration power system also includes SNMP MIBS and XML support.


Note In a modular configuration AC power system, PDU refers to the Cisco CRS PDU which is required to convert 3-phase AC-Wye or AC-Delta input power to single-phase AC input power for the modular configuration AC power shelf. For further information, refer to Cisco CRS 3-Phase AC Power Distribution Unit Installation Guide.


Power Component Information Common to the Two Types of Power Systems

This section introduces information shared by the fixed configuration power components and the modular configuration power components in the following topics:

Basic Chassis Power Details

Bonding and Grounding Guidelines

DC Power Systems

AC Power Systems

Basic Chassis Power Details

The LCC can be configured with either an AC-input power subsystem or a DC-input power subsystem. Site power requirements differ, depending on the source voltage used. Follow these precautions and recommendations when planning power connections to the router:

Check the power at your site before installation and periodically after installation to ensure that you are receiving clean power. Install a power conditioner, if necessary.

Install proper grounding to avoid damage from lightning and power surges.

The LCC requires that at least one power shelf and its components be installed to operate properly; however, if you install only one power shelf and its components, your system will not be 2N redundant.

Two types of power shelves exist: an AC shelf and a DC shelf. A fixed configuration AC power shelf houses the AC rectifiers, while a fixed configuration DC power shelf houses the DC PEMs. A modular configuration AC power shelf houses the AC PMs, while a modular configuration DC power shelf houses the DC PMs. It is required that you use only one type of power shelf in a chassis at a time.


Note In a modular configuration power system, both AC and DC power supplies are referred to as power modules (PMs).



Warning The chassis might have more than one power connection. All connections must be removed to de-energize the chassis. Statement 1028

Bonding and Grounding Guidelines

The router chassis has a safety earth ground connection in conjunction with power cabling to the fixed configuration power shelves. The chassis allows you to connect the central office ground system or interior equipment grounding system to the bonding and grounding receptacles on the router chassis, when either a fixed or modular configuration power system is installed. Two threaded ground inserts are located on top of the chassis rear (MSC) side panel to the left of the lower power shelf. Figure 2-1 shows the NEBS and grounding points on the rear (MSC) side of the chassis with a modular configuration DC power shelf installed. This grounding point is also referred to as the network equipment building system (NEBS) bonding and grounding stud. The location of the grounding points on the LCC is the same for both fixed and modular configuration power systems.


Note These bonding and grounding receptacles are provided to satisfy the Telcordia NEBS requirements for bonding and grounding connections.

Note A 45-degree grounding lug is shown in Figure 2-1. A 180-degree (straight) grounding lug can also be used.



Caution Do not remove the chassis ground cable unless the chassis is being replaced.

The grounding points are hidden by a cover plate. When the cover plate is removed, you can easily see the labels indicating the location of the grounding points. Two grounding points are provided; use the top grounding point for NEBS grounding purposes.

Modular configuration power shelf grounding is accomplished by installing an external ground bracket between the power shelves and attached to the chassis, as shown in Figure 2-2. The bolts that connect the external grounding brackets to the chassis and the power shelf have a torque value of 30 in.-lb (3.39 N-m). See the "Installing Power Shelf Grounding Brackets" procedure for more information about installing power shelf grounding brackets.

Installing the Chassis Ground Cable

This section describes how to install the ground cable on the LCC.

Prerequisites

To ensure a satisfactory ground connection, you need the following parts:

One grounding lug that has two M6 bolt holes with 0.63 inches (5/8 inch) (1.60 cm) of spacing center to center between them and a 6 AWG or larger multistrand copper wire.
The grounding lug used can be either a 180 degree (straight) lug, as shown in Figure 2-3, or a 45-degree lug, as shown in Figure 2-4.

Figure 2-3 180-Degree (Straight) Chassis Ground Lug

Figure 2-4 45-Degree Chassis Ground Lug

Two M6 hex head bolts and integrated locking washers are pre-installed on the chassis.

Although we recommend at least 6 AWG multistrand copper ground cable, the actual cable diameter and length depends on the router location and site environment. This cable is not available from Cisco Systems; it is available from any commercial cable vendor. The cable should be sized according to local and national installation requirements.


Note The DC return of this system should remain isolated from the system frame and chassis (DC-I: Isolated DC Return).


Required Tools and Equipment

You need the following tools and equipment to perform this task:

Ground lug

Ground cable

Crimping tool and lug specific die

10-mm 6 pt. combination wrench

Torque wrench with 10-mm 6 pt. socket and rated accuracy at 30 in.-lb (3.39 N-m)

Steps

To attach the ground cable to the chassis, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Use the crimping tool mandated by the lug manufacturer to crimp the lug to the ground cable.

Step 2 Using the 10-mm wrench, attach the ground cable to the grounding point on top of the chassis rear (MSC) side panel, as shown in Figure 2-1. Then use the torque wrench to tighten to a torque of 30 in.-lb (3.39 N-m).


DC Power Systems

Each DC powered chassis contains two DC power shelves for 2N redundancy. The shelves contain the input power connectors.

In the fixed configuration power system, each power shelf contains three DC PEMs. The power shelves and DC PEMs are field replaceable. Each DC PEM has its own circuit breaker.

In the modular configuration power system, each shelf can accept up to eight DC PMs. The power shelves and DC PMs are field replaceable.


Note Depending on the hardware deployed at your site, your system may not consume the maximum power supplied by the power system.


Fixed Configuration DC Power

The LCC fixed configuration DC power system provides 13,200 watts to power the chassis.

Due to its power zones, the LCC using fixed configuration power requires a total of twelve dedicated 60 Amp DC input power connections, two for each DC PEM, to provide redundant DC power to all six power zones. We recommend that you have two separate, redundant -48 VDC power battery sources to provide power to the LCC. Connect the six "A"60 Amp DC inputs to the upper power shelf (PS0 in Figure 1-4) to one battery, and the six "B" 60 Amp inputs to the lower power shelf (PS1 in Figure 1-4) to the other battery.

At sites where the LCC is equipped with a DC-input power supply shelf and DC PEMs, observe the following guidelines:

All power connection wiring should follow the rules and regulations in the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any local codes.

Each DC-input PEM connection is rated at 60 A maximum. A dedicated, commensurately rated DC power source is required for each PEM connection.

For DC power cables, we recommend that you use commensurately rated, high-strand-count copper cable. Each DC PEM requires two DC inputs of nominal -48/-60 VDC, 60 A service. Each DC input consists of one pair of cable leads, source DC (-) and source DC return (+). Each power shelf requires one grounding cable. The length of the cables depends on the router location. These cables are not available from Cisco Systems; they are available from any commercial vendor.

DC power cables must be terminated by cable lugs at the power shelf end. The lugs should be dual hole and able to fit over M6 terminal studs at 0.63 in. (5/8 in.) (1.60 cm) centers (for example, Panduit part number LCD2-14A-Q), as shown in Figure 2-5.

Maximum wire size at the DC input terminal block is 2 AWG.

Figure 2-5 DC Power Cable Lug

Figure 2-6 shows a typical source DC power distribution scheme. The ground cable is to the far left on the shelf. The DC terminal block cable connector screws have a 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m) value; the power shelf ground cable connector screws have a 30 in.-lb (3.39 N-m) torque value.

The color coding of the source DC power cable leads depends on the color coding of the site DC power source. Typically, green or green and yellow indicates that the cable is a ground cable. Follow your local practices for cable color code and markings. Ensure that the power cables are connected to the DC input power shelf terminal studs in the proper positive (+) polarity and negative (-) polarity.

Sometimes, the source DC cable leads might have a positive (+) or a negative (-) labeL, but you must verify the polarity by measuring the voltage between the DC cable leads. When making the measurement, the positive (+) lead and the negative (-) lead must always match the (+) and (-) labels on the power shelf.


Caution The DC input PEM contains circuitry to trip the breaker on the PEM if it detects a reverse polarity condition. When installing DC power cables, make sure that the polarity of the DC input wiring is correct.

Figure 2-6 shows the cable wiring for the fixed configuration power shelf.

Figure 2-6 DC Power Shelf Cable Wiring for Fixed Configuration Power Shelf

Table 2-1 lists the fixed configuration DC input current and voltage specifications.

Table 2-1 DC Input Current and Voltage Information

Input line current

50 A maximum at -48 VDC
40 A maximum at -60 VDC

Inrush current

168 A peak at -75 VDC
(maximum for 1 ms)


Each wiring block on the fixed configuration power shelf contains two sets of terminals, one positive and one negative, and is covered by a plastic block cover that snaps onto the power shelf and is secured by a screw to a torque value of 4 to 5 in.-lb (0.46 to 0.58 N-m). You must remove the block cover or rotate it out of the way before you work with the cables. The block covers are slotted in such a way that the cables can exit only one end. For the cables to point in a different direction, remove the block cover, rotate it, and snap it back on.

For additional power details, see "Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis Specifications" or Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis System Description.

Modular Configuration DC Power

The LCC modular configuration DC power system can provide up to 16,800 watts to power the chassis. However, by default, the power capability of a system when shipped, with six DC PMs per power shelf, is 12,600 watts.


Note Depending on the hardware deployed at your site, your system may not consume the maximum power supplied by the power system.


Each modular configuration DC power shelf supports up to eight DC PMs. The power shelves and DC PMs are field replaceable.


Note Although each modular configuration DC power shelf can support up to eight DC PMs, the modular configuration DC power shelf is shipped with six DC PMs per shelf.


Figure 2-7 shows the cable wiring for the modular configuration power shelf.

Figure 2-7 DC Power Shelf Cable Wiring for Modular Configuration Power Shelf

Each power shelf operates with up to eight DC inputs of -48/-60 VDC (nominal), 60A. The power shelf accepts input DC power in the range -40 to -72 VDC.

Table 2-2 lists the modular configuration DC input current and voltage specifications.

Table 2-2 DC Input Current and Voltage Information

Nominal input voltage

-48 VDC North America
-60 VDC European Community
(range: -40 VDC to -72 VDC)

Input line current

50 A maximum at -48 VDC
40 A maximum at -60 VDC
60 A maximum at -40 VDC


Each wiring block on the modular configuration DC power shelf contains two sets of terminals, one positive and one negative, and is covered by a plastic terminal block cover that is secured by a screw to a torque of 5 to 7 in.-lb (0.56 to 0.79 N-m). Each DC power cable is connected to the power shelf with a torque of 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m). Maximum wire size at the DC input terminal block is 2 AWG.

The power supply terminal posts are centered 0.63 inches (5/8 inch) (1.60 cm) apart and are M6-threaded. We recommend that you use an appropriately sized 180-degree angle (straight) industry standard 2-hole, standard barrel compression lug, as shown in Figure 2-8.

Figure 2-8 DC Power Cable Lug

The power shelf grounding is accomplished by installing an external ground bracket between the power shelves and attached to the chassis. The bolts that connect the external grounding brackets to the chassis and the power shelf have a torque value of 30 in.-lb (3.39 N-m).

For additional power details, see "Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis Specifications" or Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis System Description.

Input-Power-Present LEDs

In both power configurations, the DC input-power-present LEDs provide a visual indication to service personnel that there is voltage present across the input terminal connection. The LED provides a warning to the service person that there is power present.


Note Power should be disconnected before servicing the input power connection.


Figure 2-9 shows the input-power-present LEDs on the rear of the fixed configuration DC power shelf.

Figure 2-9 Input-Power-Present LEDs—Fixed Configuration DC Power Shown

Figure 2-10 shows the input-power-present LEDs on the rear of the modular configuration DC power shelf.

Figure 2-10 Input-Power-Present LEDs—Modular Configuration DC Power Shown

The input-power-present LED starts to light up when the input voltage reaches -20 VDC and the LED gets brighter as voltage increases; the input-power-present LED is fully lit when the input voltage reaches -38 VDC.


Caution If the input voltage polarity is reversed, or if the LED circuit fails, the LED will not light. When this is the case, service personnel should check for hazardous voltages before working on the unit.

AC Power Systems

Each AC powered chassis contains two AC power shelves for 2N redundancy. The shelves contain the input power connectors.

In the fixed configuration power system, each shelf contains three AC power rectifiers. The power shelves and AC power rectifiers are field replaceable. Each shelf and AC power rectifier has its own circuit breaker.

In the modular configuration power system, each shelf can contain up to six AC PMs. The power shelves and the AC PMs are field replaceable.


Note Depending on the hardware deployed at your site, your system may not consume the maximum power supplied by the power system.


Fixed Configuration AC Power

The LCC fixed configuration AC power system provides 13,200 watts to power the chassis.Two versions of the 3-phase AC power shelf are available to provide either an AC Delta or an AC Wye input configuration. Each of the AC power shelf versions has a different Cisco part number to distinguish the Wye from the Delta configuration. The AC connections to the LCC are made to terminal blocks on the AC power shelves that have been hard wired for a Wye or Delta configuration. All chassis should have two power shelves of the same type, that is, two Delta or two Wye AC power shelves.

In the fixed configuration power system, each shelf supports three AC-to-DC rectifiers that are field replaceable. The AC-to-DC rectifiers convert 200-to-240 VAC power to -54 VDC used by the LCC.

The AC Wye power shelf has a Wye 3-phase, 5-wire connection: 200 to 240 (L-N)/346 to 415 (L-L) VAC, 3W+N+PE, 50 to 60 Hz, 25 A. For redundant operation, two 3-phase Wye branch circuits are required: 40 A (North America) or 32 A (International). One power connection is required for each power shelf.

The AC Delta power shelf has a Delta 3-phase, 4-wire connection: 200 to 240 VAC, 3-phase, 3W+PE, 50 to 60 Hz, 42 A. For redundant operation, two 3-phase Delta 60-A branch circuits are required. One power connection is required for each power shelf.


Note The power cord for the fixed configuration AC power shelf does not arrive preattached and needs to be installed.


For additional power details, see "Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis Specifications" or Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis System Description.

Modular Configuration AC Power

The LCC modular configuration AC power system can provide up to 18,000 watts to power the chassis. However, by default, the power capability of a system when shipped, with 5 AC PMs per power shelf, is 15,000 watts.

Each modular configuration power shelf supports up to six PMs. The power shelves and PMs are field replaceable.


Note Depending on the hardware deployed at your site, your system may not consume the maximum power supplied by the power system.


Unlike the fixed configuration AC power system, which requires 3-phase AC Delta or AC Wye input power, the modular configuration AC power system requires single-phase AC input power. If you have 3-phase AC Delta or AC Wye at your equipment, a Cisco CRS PDU will be required to convert 3-phase AC input power to single-phase AC input power for the power shelf. For further information, refer to Cisco CRS 3-Phase AC Power Distribution Unit Installation Guide.

The modular configuration AC power shelf has the following input VAC power requirements:

Single-phase, 200 to 240 VAC nominal, 50 to 60 Hz, 16 A.

Each power shelf contains six IEC-320-C22 receptacles which can accept up to six IEC-320-C21 connector female cords.


Note If you have a Cisco CRS 3-Phase AC PDU installed, six AC PMs are required to be installed in each LCC AC modular configuration power shelf to maintain a balanced 3-phase power load,.



Note We recommend that you use appropriate short-circuit protection in compliance with national and local electrical codes.


For additional power details, see "Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis Specifications" or Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis System Description.

Installing a Fixed Configuration Power Shelf

This section describes how to install a fixed configuration power shelf in the LCC. For information on the differences between the power types, see the "DC Power Systems" section and the "AC Power Systems" section. For complete information on regulatory compliance and safety, see Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information.

The power shelf encloses:

The power modules: three AC rectifiers for an AC power shelf or three DC PEMs for a DC power shelf

An alarm module

Power distribution connections and wiring.

The power shelf is installed in the LCC from the front (PLIM) side. Although differences exist among the different power shelf types (AC Wye, AC Delta, and DC), they are installed in the same manner. Figure 2-11 shows a fixed configuration AC power shelf. The fixed configuration DC power shelf is similar.

Prerequisites

Before performing this task, remove the upper grille on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis (if installed).


Note Do not install the power shelf in the chassis with DC PEMs, AC rectifiers, or alarm module installed in the power shelf.


Required Tools and Equipment

You need the following tools and part to perform this task:

ESD-preventive wrist strap

1/4-in. x 6-in. long slotted screwdriver

Fixed configuration AC or DC power shelf

AC Delta power shelf (Cisco product number CRS-16-LCC-PS-ACD=), or

AC Wye power shelf (Cisco product number CRS-16-LCC-PS-ACW=), or

DC power shelf (Cisco product number CRS-16-LCC-PS-DC=)

Steps

To install a fixed configuration power shelf, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect its leash to one of the ESD connection sockets on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis or a bare metal surface on the chassis.

Step 2 Make sure that the power shelf I/O switch, located on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis, is in the OFF position.

Step 3 The lever handles are fastened down for shipment. Use the screwdriver to turn the two captive screws, one on each lever handle, to unfasten them.

Step 4 Supporting the unit by the bottom and grasping one side for balance, lift the power shelf up and slide it into one of the power shelf slots on the chassis.


Caution An empty power shelf weighs approximately 36 lb (16.3 kg). Because of the rack-mounted height of the chassis, you should be especially careful while lifting and removing the power shelf. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. Avoid sudden twists or lateral moves. It is safer to use two people and a ladder to install or remove the power shelf rather than a single person.

Step 5 Slide the power shelf fully into the chassis and lift the lever handles up to lock the tray into position.

Step 6 Use the screwdriver to turn the two lever screws on the front panel of the power shelf clockwise to seat the power shelf firmly in the slot.

Step 7 Use the screwdriver to turn the four captive screws on the interior of the power shelf clockwise to firmly anchor the shelf to the sides of the chassis.


What to Do Next

After performing this task, wire the power shelf (see the "Installing Fixed Configuration AC Power Cords" section and the "Installing Fixed Configuration DC Power Shelf Wiring" section for information), install the power modules (see "Installing an AC Rectifier or DC PEM" section) and install the alarm module (see the "Installing a Fixed Configuration Alarm Module" section).

Removing a Fixed Configuration Power Shelf

This section describes how to remove a power shelf from the 16-slot LCC. For information on the differences between the power types, see the "DC Power Systems" section and the "AC Power Systems" section. For complete information on regulatory compliance and safety, see Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information.

The power shelf is installed and removed from the front (PLIM) side and plugs into the chassis power interface connector panel. Although differences exist among the different power shelf types (AC Wye, AC Delta, and DC), they are installed and removed in the same manner. Figure 2-11 shows a fixed configuration AC power shelf.

Prerequisites

Before performing this task, remove the upper grille on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis (if installed), and power down and remove AC rectifiers (or DC PEMs) and the alarm module in the shelf you want to remove. Remove the AC or DC power shelf wiring. See the "Removing an AC rectifier or DC PEM" section, the "Removing a Fixed Configuration Alarm Module" section, the "Removing Fixed Configuration AC Power Cords" section and the "Removing Fixed Configuration DC Power Shelf Wiring" section for more information.

Required Tools and Equipment

You need the following tools to perform this task:

ESD-preventive wrist strap

1/4-in. x 6-in. long slotted screwdriver

Steps

To remove a fixed configuration AC or DC power shelf, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect its leash to one of the ESD connection sockets on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis or a bare metal surface on the chassis.

Step 2 Turn the shelf power switch, located on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis, to the OFF position.

Step 3 For AC, at the AC service circuit breaker box open all associated equipment circuit breakers for shelf(s) to be removed. Use the lockout and tag procedures per your local practices. Unplug the power cords from the associated power shelves and remove. Refer to the "Removing Fixed Configuration AC Power Cords" section for more information.
For DC, at the BDFB or power plant, remove the associated fuses / circuit breakers for shelf(s) to be removed. Use the lockout and tag procedures per your local practices. Remove DC distribution cables from the rear of the associated power shelf and tape the bare lugs for protection. Refer to the "Removing Fixed Configuration DC Power Shelf Wiring" section for more information.

Step 4 Remove all power modules (three AC power rectifiers in an AC power shelf or three DC PEMs in a DC power shelf) from the shelf you are removing.

Step 5 Remove the alarm module.

Step 6 Use the screwdriver to loosen the four captive screws (two on each side) on the interior of the power shelf by turning them counterclockwise.

Step 7 Use the screwdriver to loosen the two lever screws on the front panel of the power shelf by turning them counterclockwise.

Step 8 Pull the lever handles down with both hands and slide the power shelf slowly from the slot in the chassis. After partially removing the power shelf from the chassis using the handles, grab both side of the power shelf and slide the shelf completely from the chassis.


Caution An empty power shelf weighs approximately 36 lb (16.3 kg). Because of the rack-mounted height of the chassis, you should be especially careful while lifting and removing the power shelf. To prevent injury to your back, keep your back straight while lifting the shelf and lift the equipment as you stand up. Avoid sudden twists or lateral moves. It is safer to have two people use a ladder to install or remove the power shelf rather than do it yourself.

Step 9 Set the power shelf carefully aside.

Powering Up and Down a Chassis with Fixed Configuration AC Power

This section describes how to power up and power down an LCC with fixed configuration AC power shelves installed. For details on the fixed configuration chassis AC power system, see the "AC Power Systems" section. For complete information on regulatory compliance and safety, see Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System.

Each power shelf in the LCC has its own I/O switch for shelf power cutoff. Power shelf linkage cuts power to the chassis as a whole when both power shelves are turned off. Most components on the chassis, such as the power shelves, PEMs, alarm modules, and fan trays, can be removed or installed in the chassis while it is running. Although it is possible to install or remove a power shelf while the chassis is running, it is recommended to remove power from the chassis completely, if possible, for service protection and safety.


Note Although the chassis can be powered on by switching on the power shelf I/O switch (if all individual power rectifier I/O switches are in the ON position), this method draws a large power surge on start-up. We recommend following the procedure outlined below to power the chassis on and off.


Figure 2-19 shows the front (PLIM) side of the LCC with fixed configuration power installed.

Figure 2-19 LCC Front (PLIM) Side Slot Numbers

Power Up and Power Down a Chassis with Fixed Configuration DC Power

This section describes how to power up and power down an LCC with fixed configuration DC power shelves installed. For details on the chassis power systems, see the "Basic Chassis Power Details" section and the "DC Power Systems" section. For complete information on regulatory compliance and safety, see Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System.

Each power shelf in the LCC has its own I/O switch for shelf power cutoff. The LCC as a whole does not have a single power switch that powers the entire chassis and all its components up and down. Power shelf linkage cuts power to the chassis as a whole when both power shelves are turned off.

Most components on the chassis, such as the power shelves, power modules, alarm modules, and fan trays, can be removed or installed in the chassis while it is running. Although it is possible to install or remove a power shelf while the chassis is running, it is recommended to remove power from the chassis completely, if possible, for service protection and safety.


Note Although the chassis can be powered on by switching on the two power shelf I/O switches (if all individual power rectifier I/O switches are in the ON position), this method draws a large power surge on start-up. We recommend following the procedure outlined below to power the chassis on and off.


Prerequisites

Before performing this task, you must install and wire the power shelves, install the DC PEMs and alarm modules. See the "Installing a Fixed Configuration Power Shelf" section, the "Installing an AC Rectifier or DC PEM" section, and the "Installing a Fixed Configuration Alarm Module" section for more information. Wiring at the BDFB or at the power plant should be complete.

To power on the chassis, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and connect its leash to one of the ESD connection sockets on the front (PLIM) side of the chassis or a bare metal surface on the chassis.

Step 2 Verify that the safety ground wiring is connected to the upper (PS0) and lower (PS1) power shelves.

Step 3 Make sure that the facility power breakers for the upper (PS0) and lower (PS1) power shelves are in the OFF position.

Step 4 Make sure all the I/O switches are in an OFF position. That is, make sure all power levers are pulled out. There are total of six power levers for the DC PEMs (one for each of the six DC PEMs) and two power levers for the DC power shelves (one for each power shelf).

Step 5 Make sure all boards (RPs, PLIMs, Line Cards, and FCs) are pulled-out and disconnected from the backplane.

Step 6 Energize the facility breaker to PEM 0, input 1 on the upper power shelf, PS0.


Caution Make sure that the polarity of the DC input wiring is correct.

Caution This is a positive ground system; make sure to connect the positive lead to the +RTN terminal and the negative lead to the -48V terminal.

Step 7 Measure the voltage at the input terminal block and verify that the DC voltage between the positive and negative terminals is between 42 VDC and 72 VDC. Make a note of this voltage measurement.

Step 8 Turn the facility breaker to the OFF position.

Step 9 Repeat Step 7 and Step 8 for each of the remaining five DC inputs on the upper power shelf (PS0).

Step 10 Repeat Step 7 and Step 8 for each of the six DC inputs on the lower power shelf (PS1).

Step 11 Turn the facility power breakers for the upper (PS0) and lower (PS1) power shelf to the ON position.

Step 12 Turn the upper power shelf (PS0; see Figure 2-19) I/O switch to the ON position. Verify that the "CBREAKER TRIP" LED on the front panel of each DC PEM is yellow and that no other LEDs are active.

Step 13 Turn the first PEM (A0; see Figure 2-19) I/O switch on the upper power shelf (PS0) to the ON position. Verify that the "PWR OK" LED on the DC PEM front panel is green and that no other LEDs are active. Repeat for the other two PEMs (A1 and A2; see Figure 2-19).

Step 14 Turn the lower power shelf (PS1; see Figure 2-19) circuit breaker to the ON position. Verify that the "CBREAKER TRIP" LED on the front panel of each DC PEM is yellow and that no other LEDs are active.

Step 15 Turn the first PEM (B0; see Figure 2-19) I/O switch on the lower power shelf (PS1) to the ON position. Verify that the "PWR OK" LED on the DC PEM front panel is green and that no other LEDs are active. Repeat for the other two PEMs (A1 and A2; see Figure 2-19).

Step 16 Turn the I/O switches on all PEMs and both power shelves to the OFF position. Verify that no LEDs on the PEMs are active.

Step 17 Insert all boards into the chassis (See "Installing and Removing Line Cards, PLIMs, and Associated Components").

Step 18 Turn the power shelf I/O switches (PS0 and PS1) to the ON position.

Step 19 Turn all DC PEM I/O switches to the ON position.

Step 20 Measure the input voltage of each input and compare this value to the voltage measurement noted in Step 7. Verify that the equipment is still receiving the correct input voltage measured in Step 7.



Note For appropriate MSC, RP, or PLIM LED information, see the appropriate section in Chapter 4 "Installing and Removing Line Cards, PLIMs, and Associated Components," or the specific documentation for the card.


To power down the chassis entirely, you must power down both of the power shelves by moving the power shelf power switch to the OFF position by lifting up on the lever and pulling it out. Both power shelves must be disconnected to de-energize the chassis completely.

The front and rear views of the modular configuration AC power shelf are shown in Figure 2-22 and Figure 2-23.

Figure 2-22 AC Modular Configuration Power Shelf—Front View

Figure 2-23 AC Modular Configuration Power Shelf, Rear View

Prerequisites

Remove the upper grilles from both the front (PLIM) and rear (MSC) sides of the chassis, if installed. Verify that the power shelf that you are about to install is the correct power shelf.


Note Do not install the power shelf in the chassis with AC or DC PMs, or alarm module installed in the power shelf.


Required Tools and Equipment

You need the following tools to perform this task:

6-in. long number 1 Phillips screwdriver

10-mm 6 pt. combination wrench

Modular configuration AC or DC power shelf

AC power shelf (Cisco product number CRS-16LCC-PSH-AC=), or

DC power shelf (Cisco product number CRS-16LCC-PSH-DC=)

Steps

To install the modular configuration power shelf, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Using the 10-mm wrench, loosen the two bolts on the rear of the chassis that clamp the rear of the power shelf to the chassis, as shown in Figure 2-24

Figure 2-24 Loosening Bolts on Rear of Chassis

Step 2 Install the mounting blocks on the left and right sides of the chassis. The left side is shown in Figure 2-25. A second mounting block is located on the right side.

This section describes how to power up a chassis with modular configuration AC or DC power shelves installed.

Prerequisites

Before performing this task, you must install and wire the power shelves, install the PMs and alarm modules, and install the route processor (RP) card. See the "Installing a Modular Configuration Power Shelf" section, the "Installing a Modular Configuration Power Module" section, the "Installing a Modular Configuration Alarm Module" section, and the "Installing an RP, PRP, or DRP Card" section for more information.
If you have a modular configuration DC power system installed, wiring at the BDFB or at the power plant should be complete.

Steps

To power on the chassis, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Make sure that the facility power breakers for the upper (Power A) and lower (Power B) power shelves are in the OFF position.

Step 2 Make sure that I/O switches on the rear of the upper (Power A) and lower (Power B) power shelves are in the OFF position.

Step 3 Make sure all boards (RPs, PLIMs, SFCs, and FPs) are pulled-out and disconnected from the backplane.

Step 4 If you have a modular configuration DC power system installed:

a. Energize the facility breaker to PM 0, on the upper power shelf, Power A.

b. Measure the voltage at the input terminal block and verify that the DC voltage between the positive and negative terminals is between 48 VDC and 60 VDC. Make a note of this voltage measurement.

c. Turn the facility breaker to the OFF position.


Caution Make sure that the polarity of the DC input wiring is correct.

Caution This is a positive ground system; make sure to connect the positive lead to the +RTN terminal and the negative lead to the -48V terminal.

d. Repeat a. through c. for each of the remaining DC inputs on the upper power shelf, Power A.

e. Repeat a.through d. for each of the DC inputs on the lower power shelf, Power B.

Step 5 Turn the facility breakers for the upper power shelf (Power A) to the ON position. Verify that the Input_OK LED on all of the PMs installed in the upper shelf are green.

Step 6 Turn the I/O switch at the rear of the upper power shelf (Power A) to the ON position. Verify that the Output_OK LED on all of the PMs installed in the upper shelf are green.

Step 7 Repeat Step Step 5 and Step 6 for the lower power shelf (Power B).

Step 8 Turn the I/O switch at the rear of both upper power shelves (Power A and Power B) to the OFF position. Verify that none of the Output_OK LEDs on the PMs installed in the shelf are green.

Step 9 Install all boards (RPs, PLIMs, SFCs, and FPs) in the chassis. For more information, see Chapter 4 "Installing and Removing Line Cards, PLIMs, and Associated Components."

Step 10 Turn the I/O switch at the rear of both power shelves (Power A and Power B) to the ON position.

Step 11 If you have a modular configuration DC power system installed, measure the input voltage of each DC input and compare this value to the voltage measurement noted in Step 4. Verify that the equipment is still receiving the correct input voltage measured in Step 4.



Note For appropriate line card LED information, see the appropriate section in Chapter 4 "Installing and Removing Line Cards, PLIMs, and Associated Components."or the specific documentation for the card.


Power Down a Chassis with Modular Configuration Power

This section describes how to power down a chassis with a modular configuration AC or DC power shelf.
