Chassis Installation Options

You can set the chassis on a desktop, install it in a rack, or mount it on a wall.

Tip Before proceeding, consider the location of the equipment with respect to a good ground. See Grounding the Chassis.

See the following instructions:

Caution   Use only the mounting hardware supplied with this product.

Using the Correct Screws

Two sets of mounting screws are provided, in separate packages. Take care to use each screw type, and washers as needed, in the appropriate locations. Table 1 clarifies the differences between rack-mounting and wall-mounting screws.

Using Quick Installation Brackets

A new bracket accompanies this product. See Figure 4. This bracket, with a keyhole feature, facilitates wall-mounting by allowing the installer to rest the bracket on a starter screw, freeing the installer's hands.

Caution   If the floor is concrete or another noncombustible material, you can mount the unit either horizontally or vertically on a wall. (See the example in Wall-Mounting the Chassis.) Otherwise, rack-mount the unit.

Rack-Mounting the Chassis

The following Warning applies only when the unit is rack-mounted:

Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety: This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack. When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack. If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack. [1006]

To rack-mount the chassis, follow this procedure:

Caution   Make sure to use the correct screws for this mounting option (see Table 1).

Note   Screws are included for attaching the the brackets to the chassis, but not for installing the chassis in a rack or on a wall. You need four additional machine screws to install the chassis in a rack. Use the screw size required by your rack.

Step 2   Install the chassis in the rack.

Wall-Mounting the Chassis

The following Warning applies only when the unit is wall-mounted:

Warning This unit is intended to be mounted on a wall. Please read the wall mounting instructions carefully before beginning installation. Failure to use the correct hardware or to follow the correct procedures could result in a hazardous situation to people and damage to the system. [248]

Caution   If the floor is concrete or another noncombustible material, you can mount the unit either horizontally or vertically on a wall, as in the example below. Otherwise, rack-mount the unit. (See Rack-Mounting the Chassis.)

To wall-mount the chassis, follow this example procedure:

Caution   Make sure to use the correct screws for this mounting option (see Table 1). Plastic washers are also required.

Step 2   Insert the screws through the plastic washers, with the narrow end of the washer facing the chassis.

Step 3   Insert the narrow end of the washers in the oval slots.

Step 4   Attach the second bracket to the opposite side of the chassis.

Step 5   Attach the chassis to the wall, as shown in Figure 9.

Caution   To reduce the risk of fire hazard, mount this unit horizontally, as shown in Figure 9.

Grounding the Chassis

Warning This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. [1024]

Warning AC connected units must have a permanent ground connection in addition to the power cable ground wire. NEBS-compliant grounding satisfies this requirement. [284]

You must connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground using the ground lug and hardware (provided) and size AWG 6 (13 mm²) wire.

To ground the chassis, follow this procedure:

Tip Using a multimeter, measure the impedance between various example ground locations, such as the following: —between the ground of a junction box (outlet) and the ground of a power tap —between the ground of a junction box and a metal water pipe —between the Cisco IAD chassis and the ground of a power tap —between the Cisco IAD chassis and the ground of a junction box A good ground connection should read between 0.0 and 0.5 ohms.

Step 2   Strip one end of the ground wire to expose approximately 0.75 in. (20 mm) of conductor.

Step 3   Crimp the ground wire to the ground lug, using a crimping tool of the appropriate gauge.

Step 4   Attach the ground lug to the mounting screws at the upper left of the back of the chassis, as shown in Figure 10. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver and the screws supplied with the ground lug. Tighten the screws to a torque of 8 to 10 in-lb (0.9 to 1.1 N-m).

Step 5   Connect the other end of the ground wire to a suitable grounding location at your site.

5 Install a WAN or Voice Interface Card

The Cisco IAD2430 series includes a slot for a WAN interface card (WIC) or voice interface card (VIC). The following WICs and VICs (also used by Cisco 2600 series and Cisco 3600 series routers) are supported in initial releases of the Cisco IAD2430 series:

For detailed information on installing and connecting interface cards, refer to the following:

"Installing WAN and Voice Interface Cards in Cisco Modular Routers," in the Cisco Interface Cards Installation Guide, at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_mod/cis2600/hw_inst/wic_inst/wic_doc/index.htm

Caution   WAN and voice interface cards do not support online insertion and removal (hot swapping). Before inserting a card into theCisco IAD chassis, you must turn off electrical power and disconnect network cables. Always use an ESD-preventive wrist strap before handling cards.

To install a WIC or VIC, follow this procedure:

Step 2   Holding the interface card by the edges, line up the card with the guides on both sides of the slot.

Step 3   Insert the card in the slot. Push until it is firmly seated in the connector and the front panel of the card is flush with the rear panel of the Cisco IAD.

Step 4   Use the screwdriver to tighten the captive screws on the card.

6 Connect Cables

Warning Do not work on the system, or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity. [1001]

Warning Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the power source. [1004]

Warning This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that the protective device is rated not greater than: 120 VAC, 15A (240 VAC, 10A international) [1005]

Warning To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables. [1021]

Warning To prevent accidental discharge in the event of a power line cross, route on-premise wiring away from power cables and off-premise wiring, or use a grounded shield to separate the on-premise wiring from the power cables and off-premise wiring. A power line cross is an event, such as a lightning strike, that causes a power surge. Off-premise wiring is designed to withstand power line crosses. On-premise wiring is protected from power line crosses by a device that provides overcurrent and overvoltage protection. Nevertheless, if the on-premise wiring is in close proximity to, or not shielded from, the off-premise wiring or power cables during a lightning strike or power surge, the on-premise wiring can carry a dangerous discharge to the attached interface, equipment, and nearby personnel. [338]

Connecting LAN and Power Cables

Caution   The Cisco IAD2430 series chassis provides inputs for both AC and DC power. Design your installation to use only one type of power. Do not use AC and DC power at the same time. If you do, the unit will cease operating, and you will need to reboot it with only a single power source.

These cables and connections are described in Table 2 and Figure 11.

Connecting WAN and Voice Cables

Warning For connections outside the building where the equipment is installed, the following ports must be connected through an approved network termination unit with integral circuit protection. FXS/T3/E3 [1044]

Note   Also, the following warning applies to the RJ-21 interface on units that have one.

Warning This equipment contains a ring signal generator (ringer), which is a source of hazardous voltage. Do not touch the RJ-11 (phone) port wires (conductors), the conductors of a cable connected to the RJ-11 port, or the associated circuit-board when the ringer is active. The ringer is activated by an incoming call. [1042]

These cables and connections are described in Table 3 and Figure 12.

7 Power On the Cisco IAD
