Power Specifications

Table 2  Cisco NCS 6000 FCC Power Specifications

Power Enclosure Components

Power Trays

Either four AC or four DC power trays. AC and DC power trays cannot be mixed.

Power modules (PMs)

The AC power tray has three slots for AC PMs. The DC power tray has four slots for DC PMs.

Power control modules (PCMs)

Two PCMs are preinstalled in the power enclosure (one per each set of power trays).

Power Redundancy (N+N)

AC: Up to 12 power modules can be installed, and only 6 are needed to be active at any time. This allows support for 6+6 power redundancy by using two independent AC power sources (6 feeds each).

DC: Up to16 power modules can be installed, and only 8 are needed to be active at any time. This allows support for 8+8 power redundancy through “A” and “B” battery plant feeds.

DC Input

Nominal input voltage

–48 VDC or –60 VDC (tolerance range: –40 to –72 VDC)

Input current

50 A max at –48 VDC

40 A max at –60 VDC

60 A at –40 VDC (maximum)

AC Input

Single-phase

Nominal input voltage

200 to 240 VAC (range 180 to 264 VAC)

Nominal line frequency

50/60 Hz (range 47 to 63 Hz)

Recommended AC service

20-A (North America) dedicated branch circuit

16-A (International) dedicated branch circuit

AC Power Cord Length

167 in. (4.25 m)

Environmental Specifications

Table 3 Cisco NCS 6000 FCC Environmental Specifications

Temperature

Operating, nominal: 41 to 104°F (5° to 40°C)

Operating, short-term: 23 to 122°F (–5° to 50°C)1

Nonoperating: –40 to 158°F (–40° to 70°C)

Humidity

Operating, nominal: 5 to 85%, noncondensing

Operating, short-term: 5 to 90%, noncondensing

Nonoperating: 5 to 93%, noncondensing

Altitude

Operating: –200 to 13,800 ft (–61 to 4206 m) at 104°F (40°C)

Nonoperating: Up to 16,000 ft (4877 m) at –13°F (–25°C), short-term

FCC airflow

2000 CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute)

Up to 56,600 liters per minute

Power system airflow

Up to 3400 liters per minute

Air exhaust temperature

122°F (50°C)—at room temperatures of 95 to 102°F (35 to 39°C)

140°F (60°C)—maximum exhaust temperature on a fully loaded system during worst-case operating conditions (50°C and 6000 ft altitude)

Air velocity (at exhaust)

1000 ft/min (5.1m/s) under typical conditions 27°C

2250 ft/min(11.4m/s) at maximum speed

Note    Software controls the speed of the fans based on measurements from the fabric chassis thermal sensors.
