Installing Power Components

This chapter provides instructions on how to install Cisco CRS Enhanced 16-Slot Line Card Chassis power components.

This chapter presents the following topics:

Power Systems Overview

The chassis power system provides power to chassis components and is made up of two AC or DC power shelves that contain AC or DC power modules (PMs) and alarm modules.

The AC power system requires single-phase AC input power to the power shelves. 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. The power system also includes SNMP MIBS and XML support.


Note


In the 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 AC power shelf. For further information and installation instructions, refer to the Cisco CRS 3-Phase AC Power Distribution Unit Installation Guide .

This section contains the following topics:

Basic Chassis Power Details

The Cisco CRS Series Enhanced 16-slot Line Card Chassis can be configured with either an AC-input power system or a DC-input power system. 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 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 Cisco CRS Series Enhanced 16-slot Line Card Chassis 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. An AC power shelf houses the AC PMs, while a DC power shelf houses the DC PMs. It is required that you use only one type of power shelf, either AC or DC, in a chassis at a time.

DANGER

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 two safety earth ground connections. 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. Threaded ground inserts are located on top of the chassis rear (MSC) side panel to the right of the lower power shelf. There are also two sets of grounding studs located at the bottom of the rear (MSC) side of the chassis.

Figure 1 shows the grounding points at the top on the rear (MSC) side of the chassis. This grounding point is also referred to as the network equipment building system (NEBS) bonding and grounding point.


Note


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

Caution


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

Note


The two bolts below the NEBS bonding and grounding points at the top of the chassis are required for proper bonding and grounding of the chassis and should not be removed.

Figure 2 shows the NEBS and grounding points at the bottom on the rear (MSC) side of the chassis.

Figure 2. NEBS Bonding and Grounding Points—Bottom Rear (MSC) Side of Chassis

DC Power Systems

The Cisco CRS Series Enhanced 16-slot Line Card Chassis 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 DC powered chassis contains two DC power shelves for 2N redundancy. The shelves contain the input power connectors. Each shelf can accept up to eight DC PMs. The power shelves and DC PMs are field replaceable.

Figure 1 shows the cable wiring for the power shelf.

Figure 3. DC Power Shelf Cable Wiring for 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 1 lists the DC input current and voltage specifications.

Table 1 DC Input Current and Voltage Information

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

Input line current

50 A maximum at –48 VDC40 A maximum at –60 VDC60 A maximum at –40 VDC

Each wiring block on the 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.

Figure 4. DC Power Cable Lug

For additional power details, see Appendix A, “Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot EC Line Card Chassis Specifications” or the Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis System Description .

Input-Power-Present LEDs

The DC input-power-present LEDs provide a visual indication to service personnel that there is voltage present across the input terminal connection.

Figure 1 shows the input-power-present LEDs on the rear of the DC power shelf.

Figure 5. Input-Power-Present LEDS


Note


Power should be disconnected before servicing the input power connection.

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

The Cisco CRS Series Enhanced 16-slot Line Card Chassis 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 five AC PMs per power shelf, is 15,000 watts.


Note


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

Each AC powered chassis contains two AC power shelves for 2N redundancy. The shelves contain the input power connectors. Each shelf can contain up to six AC PMs. The power shelves and the AC PMs are field replaceable.

The 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 and installation instructions, refer to the Cisco CRS 3-Phase AC Power Distribution Unit Installation Guide .

The 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 plugs.

Note


If you have a Cisco CRS 3-Phase AC PDU installed, six AC PMs are required to be installed in each Cisco CRS Series Enhanced 16-slot Line Card Chassis AC 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 Appendix A, “Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot EC Line Card Chassis Specifications” or the Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot Line Card Chassis System Description .

        For additional power shelf details, see the Cisco CSR-1 Series Carrier Routing System Description or Appendix A, “Cisco CRS Series Carrier Routing System 16-Slot EC Line Card Chassis Specifications.”


        Note


        When wiring the power shelf, be sure to connect the chassis ground cable first. For more information, see the Bonding and Grounding Guidelines and the Installing the Chassis Ground Cable.
        Prerequisites

        Before performing this task, perform the following procedures:


        Note


        Before installing wiring on the power shelf, make sure that the input power cables are not energized.
        Required Tools and Equipment

        You need the following tools to perform this task:

        • DC power cables
        • DC power cable lugs
        • Crimping tool and lug specific die
        • 3/8 in. ratchet wrench with 10-mm socket
        • Multimeter
        • Torque wrench with 10-mm 6 pt. socket and rated accuracy at 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m)
        Steps

        To wire the DC power shelf, perform the following steps:

        SUMMARY STEPS

          1.    Remove the terminal block covers, if installed.

          2.    Verify the following resistance values on both power shelves:

          3.    Use the crimping tool mandated by the lug manufacturer to crimp the lugs to the DC-input cables. For details on lugs, see the DC Power Systems.

          4.    Using the wrench, attach the positive and negative cable pairs to each terminal block on the upper power shelf (Power A). Start with PM0 (located on the right side) and move left, finishing with PM7(located on the left side). Use the torque wrench to tighten to a torque of 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m). Route the power cables for the upper power shelf to the left.

          5.    Using the wrench, attach the positive and negative cable pairs to each terminal block on the lower power shelf (Power B). Start with PM0 (located on the right side) and move left, finishing with PM7(located on the left side). Use the torque wrench to tighten to a torque of 20 in.-lb (2.26 N-m). Route the power cables to the right.


        DETAILED STEPS
          Step 1   Remove the terminal block covers, if installed.
          Step 2   Verify the following resistance values on both power shelves:
          • The resistance between the positive and negative power terminal studs of each input must be greater than 90 KOhm.
          • The resistance between each positive terminal stud and bare metal surface on the power shelf must be greater that 10MOhms.
          • The resistance between each negative terminal stud and bare metal surface on the power shelf must be greater that 10MOhms.
          Note    Typical hand held Ohm meters will not measure 10MOhms, instead they will auto range to acquire a measurement and give an out-of-range reading. This is an acceptable reading provided that the meter is in calibration.
          Step 3   Use the crimping tool mandated by the lug manufacturer to crimp the lugs to the DC-input cables. For details on lugs, see the DC Power Systems.

          The cable should be sized according to local and national installation requirements. Use only copper cable.

          Note    The power supply terminal block lug width is 0.60 inch (1.50 cm). The terminal posts are centered 0.63 inches (5/8 inch) (1.60 cm) apart and are M6-threaded.

                        1. Insert the power fuse at the BDFB or power plant to energize PM 0 on the upper power shelf, Power A.
                        2. 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.
                          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.

                        3. Verify that the correct Input OK LED on PM is lit.
                        4. Repeat Step a through Step c for each of the remaining DC inputs on the upper power shelf, Power A.
                        5. Repeat Step a through Step d for each of the DC inputs on the lower power shelf, Power B. When power shelf B has been completed go to Step 5.
                        Step 4   If you have an AC power system installed, perform the following steps:
                        1. Open the circuit breaker for each feed on the PDU (6) A and B or the 12 individual single phase inputs at the circuit breaker cabinet.
                        2. If you are using the Cisco AC PDU, connect the 3 phase Delta or Wye plug into the source outlet.
                        3. Energize the office three phase breakers for sides A and B.
                        4. Close PM 0 (AB) on the left side PDU (power shelf A) and verify that the In OK LED is on for the PM that is energized.
                        5. Repeat Step d for PMs 1-5 on side A and for PMs 0 - 6 side B.
                        6. Close the power shelf output breaker for side A and verify that the Output LEDs are lit for PMs 0 - 5. Repeat for side B.
                        Step 5   Verify that the fan tray and fan controller LEDs are on and that the fans are running.
                        Step 6   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 7   Install all boards (RPs, PLIMs, SFCs, and FPs) in the chassis. For more information, see Chapter 6, “Installing Line Cards, PLIMs, and Associated Components.”
                        Step 8   Turn the I/O switch at the rear of both power shelves (Power A and Power B) to the ON position.

                        Power Down a Chassis

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

                        Steps

                        To power down the chassis, perform the following steps:

                        SUMMARY STEPS

                          1.    Turn the I/O switches at the rear of both power shelves, Power A and Power B, to the OFF position.

                          2.    If you have a DC power system installed, remove the power fuse at the BDFB or power plant for each power module on both power shelves.

                          3.    If you have an AC power system installed, turn off the source circuit breakers to de-energize the power modules in the upper and lower power shelves.


                        DETAILED STEPS
                          Step 1   Turn the I/O switches at the rear of both power shelves, Power A and Power B, to the OFF position.
                          Note    There is no required order in which you must turn off the power shelves.
                          Step 2   If you have a DC power system installed, remove the power fuse at the BDFB or power plant for each power module on both power shelves.
                          Step 3   If you have an AC power system installed, turn off the source circuit breakers to de-energize the power modules in the upper and lower power shelves.
                          Note    All DC power cables or AC power cords must be de-energized to fully remove power from the chassis.
