Electrical Equipment Guidelines
Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
•
Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working.
•
Disconnect all power and external cables before moving a chassis.
•
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
•
Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.
•
Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.
•
Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
•
A 20A DC circuit breaker is recommended for the DC-input power source. This circuit breaker should protect against short-circuit and overcurrent faults in accordance with United States National Electrical Code NFPA 70 (United States), Canadian Electrical Code, part I, C22.1 (Canada), and IEC 364 (other countries).
•
Only a DC power source that complies with the Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) requirements in UL 1950, CSA 950, EN 60950, and IEC950 can be connected to the DC-input power supply.
•
A readily accessible disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
•
This unit is to be installed in a restricted access area in accordance with articles 110-16, 110-17, and 110-18 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Telephone Wiring Guidelines
Use the following guidelines when working with any equipment that is connected to telephone wiring or to other network cabling:
•
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.
•
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
•
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damages equipment and impairs electrical circuitry. ESD occurs when printed circuit boards are improperly handled and results in complete or intermittent failures.
The I/O controller, network processing engine, cable modem cards, and port adapters consist of a printed circuit board that is fixed in a metal carrier. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, connectors, and a handle are integral components of the carrier. Handle the I/O controller, network processing engine, cable modem cards, and port adapters by the carrier edges and handle only; never touch the printed circuit board components or connector pins.
Although the metal carrier helps to protect the printed circuit boards from ESD, wear a preventive antistatic strap whenever handling the network processing engine, I/O controller, cable modem cards, or port adapters. Ensure that the strap makes good skin contact and connect the strap's clip to an unpainted chassis surface to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the unpainted metal part of the chassis.
![]()
Caution![]()
Make sure to tighten the captive installation screws on the network processing engine, cable modem cards, and the I/O controller (use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver). These screws prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the router, and help to ensure that the network processing engine, cable modem cards, and the I/O controller are properly seated in the router midplane.
Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
•
Always use an ESD wrist strap or ankle strap when installing or replacing the I/O controller, network processing engine, or port adapters. Ensure that the ESD strap makes contact with your skin.
•
Handle the I/O controller, network processing engine, or port adapters by the metal carrier edges and handles only; avoid touching the printed circuit board components or any connector pins.
•
When removing the I/O controller, network processing engine, or port adapters, place them on an antistatic surface with the printed circuit board components facing upward, or in a static shielding bag. If you are returning an I/O controller, network processing engine, or port adapter to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.
![]()
Caution![]()
Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be within the range of 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm).
Ensuring Easy Access to the Router
If your Cisco uBR7200 series router is installed in a standard 19-inch-wide, 4-post equipment rack or telco-type equipment rack, cables from other equipment in the rack might obstruct access to the rear of the router. Also, rack power strips or other permanent fixtures might obstruct access to the router. Review the following guidelines to ensure easy access to the rear of the router when it is installed in a rack. If the router is not installed in a rack, or if you already have clear access to the rear of the router, proceed to the "Removing and Replacing a DC-Input Power Supply" section.
Use the following guidelines to ensure easy access to the rear of the router when it is installed in a rack:
•
Ensure that you have at least 3 to 4 feet of working space at the rear of the router.
•
If cables from other equipment in the rack fall in front of the rear side of the router, carefully gather the cables (using care not to strain them) and use cable ties to anchor them away from the rear of the router.
•
If access to the rear of the router is partially blocked by a power strip or some other permanent rack fixture, detach the router from the rack and carefully slide it forward until there is enough clearance to remove the power supply, the fan tray, the network processing engine, and the subchassis from the router. Detailed steps for detaching the router from the rack are contained in the following section "Removing and Replacing a DC-Input Power Supply."

Powering Up the Router
Step 1
Check for the following:
•
Each port adapter is inserted in its slot, and the port adapter retention clip is in the locked position.
•
Each cable modem card is inserted in its slot, and its respective captive installation screws are tightened.
•
The network processing engine and the I/O controller are inserted in the respective slots, and the captive installation screws are tightened.
•
All network interface cables are connected to the port adapters.
•
A Flash memory card is installed in its PCMCIA slot (if present).
•
All DC leads are connected and secured to the power supply faceplate (the grounding lug is secured to the M5 grounding receptacle, and the +48 and -48 leads are secured behind the strain-relief cover).
•
Each DC lead is connected and secured to the power source.
•
The tape (that you applied earlier) is removed from the circuit breaker switch handle, and power is restored by moving the circuit breaker handle to the ON position.
•
The console terminal is turned on.
Step 2
At the rear of the router, place the power switch on the power supply in the ON (|) position. Repeat this step if a second power supply is installed in the router. The green OK LED on the power supply goes on.
Step 3
Listen for the fans; you should immediately hear them operating.
Step 4
During the boot process, observe the system's LEDs. The LEDs on most of the port adapters and cable modem cards go on and off in an irregular sequence. Some might go on, go out, and go on again for a short time. On the I/O controller, the IO Power OK LED goes on immediately.
Step 5
Observe the initialization process. When the system boot is complete (after a few seconds), the network processing engine begins to initialize the port adapters and the I/O controller. During this initialization, the LEDs on each port adapter behave differently (most flash on and off). The enabled LED on each port adapter goes on when initialization is completed, and the console screen displays a script and system banner similar to the following:

Note
The color coding of the DC-input power supply leads depends on the color coding of the DC power source at your site. Typically, green or green/yellow is used for ground, black is used for +48V (return), and red or white is used for -48V. Make certain the lead color coding you choose for the DC-input power supply matches the lead color coding used at the DC power source.
This completes the procedure for disconnecting DC input power. Proceed to the "Removing the DC-Input Power Supply" section.
Removing the DC-Input Power Supply
Step 1
Using a number 2 Phillips screwdriver, loosen the two captive screws on the faceplate of the power supply. (See .)
If the router is not installed in a standard 4-post or telco rack, skip to Step 5. If the router is installed in a rack, determine if any permanent rack fixtures, such as a power strip, are obstructing access to the power supply. If a rack fixture is obstructing access to the power supply, proceed with Step 2, otherwise, proceed to Step 5.
Step 2
Use a 3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the screws that secure the router to the front mounting strips of the rack.
Step 3
Position at least one other person in front of the rack to support the front underside of the router.
Step 4
From the rear of the rack, carefully push the front of the router out of the rack until there is enough clearance to remove the power supply from the router.
Step 5
Grasp the power supply handle and pull the DC-input power supply from the router.
This completes the procedure for removing the DC-input power supply. Proceed to the following section "Replacing the DC-Input Power Supply."
Replacing the DC-Input Power Supply
Step 1
Make sure the power switch on the power supply is in the OFF (0) position.
Step 2
Grasp the power supply handle with one hand and place your other hand underneath the power supply for support. (See .)

Note
If you are adding a second power supply to a Cisco uBR7246 VXR or Cisco uBR7246 that previously only had one power supply installed, make sure the power supply filler plate and its attached air dam have been removed from the power supply bay.
Step 3
Align the power supply to the power supply bay.
Step 4
Slide the power supply completely into the power supply bay until its faceplate is flush with the router's rear panel.
![]()
Caution![]()
When inserting a power supply into the router, do not use unnecessary force; slamming the power supply into the bay can damage the connectors on the rear of the supply and on the midplane.
Step 5
Seat the power supply in the router by tightening its captive screws with a number 2 Phillips screwdriver.
![]()
Note
The power supply is not fully seated in the router midplane until you tighten its captive installation screws.
Step 6
If you pushed the router forward in the rack, slowly guide the router back into the rack.
Step 7
Use a 3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the screws that secure the router to front mounting strips of the rack.
This completes the procedures for installing a power supply in the router. Proceed to the following section "Reconnecting DC-Input Power."
