The sections describe how to plan for the installation of the Cisco NCS 4216.
Observe the following general precautions when using and working with your Cisco NCS 4216 system:
Use the following checklist to perform and account for all the site planning tasks described in this chapter:
The Cisco NCS 4216 requires specific environmental operating conditions. Temperature, humidity, altitude, and vibration can affect the performance and reliability of the router. The following sections provide specific information to help you plan for the proper operating environment.
The Cisco NCS 4216 is designed to meet the industry EMC, safety, and environmental standards described in the Regulatory, Safety, and Compliance Information for the Cisco NCS 4200 Series Aggregation Routers.
The Cisco NCS 4216 is Telcordia GR-63-Core Indoor compliant.
Environmental monitoring in the Cisco NCS 4216 protects the system and components from damage caused by excessive voltage and temperature conditions. To ensure normal operation and avoid unnecessary maintenance, plan and prepare your site configuration before installation. After installation, make sure that the site maintains the environmental characteristics described in the System Specifications section.
For an outside plant installation (cell site cabinet, hut etc.), it is required that the Cisco NCS 4216 be protected against airborne contaminants, dust, moisture, insects, pests, corrosive gases, polluted air or other reactive elements present in the outside air. To achieve this level of protection, we recommend that the unit be installed in a fully sealed enclosure or cabinet. Examples of such cabinets include IP65 cabinets with heat exchanger complying with Telecordia GR487. Temperature must be maintained within –40ºC to 65ºC for side-side and within –40ºC to 55ºC with Air Plenum.
Be familiar with the physical characteristics of the Cisco NCS 4216 to assist you in placing the system in the proper location. For more information, see the System Specifications section.
Interface module carriers must first be assembled in the Cisco NCS 4216 followed by RSP3. Then, IMs must be installed from the lower slot to the upper slot in the following order—slot 0, slot 1 and so on.
All empty slots should be assembled with A900-IMA-BLANK
Cool air is circulated through the Cisco NCS 4216 by a fan tray located along the right side of the router. Air flow is side-to-side, front to back, as shown in the Cisco NCS 4216 Chassis Air Flow section.
The fan trays maintain acceptable operating temperatures for the internal components by drawing in cool air through the vents, and circulating the air through the chassis.
The following guidelines will help you plan your equipment rack configuration:
To install a Cisco NCS 4216 in a 4-post enclosed cabinet, the front and rear doors of the cabinet must be removed or be perforated with a minimum of 65% open area (70% for 800mm racks).
If you are mounting the chassis in a 4-post enclosed cabinet, ensure that you have a minimum of 6 inches (15.24 cm) of clearance on each side of the chassis.
Ensure that the floor under the rack supporting the Cisco NCS 4216 is capable of supporting the combined weight of the rack and all the other installed equipment.
To assess the weight of a fully configured Cisco NCS 4216, refer to the System Specifications section.
For additional information about floor loading requirements, consult GR-63-CORE, Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Requirements: Physical Protection .
The Cisco NCS 4216 has specific power and cal wiring requirements. Adhering to these requirements ensures reliable operation of the system. Follow these precautions and recommendations when planning your site power for the Cisco NCS 4216:
Caution | This product requires short-circuit (overcurrent) protection, to be provided as part of the building installation. Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations. |
Note | The Cisco NCS 4216 installation must comply with all the applicable codes and is approved for use with copper conductors only. The ground bond fastening hardware should be of compatible material and preclude loosening, deterioration, and electrochemical corrosion of hardware and joined material. Attachment of the chassis ground to a central office or other interior ground system must be made with a 6 AWG gauge wire, copper ground conductor at a minimum. |

Each Cisco NCS 4216 requires a dedicated cal circuit. If you equip it with dual power feeds, provide a separate circuit for each power supply to avoid compromising the power redundancy feature.
The Cisco NCS 4216s can be powered by a DC source. Ensure that equipment grounding is present and observe the power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all products plugged into the power strip does not exceed 80% of the rating.
For more information about the Cisco NCS 4216 power supply, see the Power Supply Features section.
This section contains guidelines for wiring and cabling at your site. When preparing your site for network connections to the Cisco NCS 4216, consider the type of cable required for each component, and the cable limitations. Consider the distance limitations for signaling, electromagnetic interference (EMI), and connector compatibility. Possible cable types are fiber, thick or thin coaxial, foil twisted-pair, or unshielded twisted-pair cabling.
Also consider any additional interface equipment you need, such as transceivers, hubs, switches, modems, channel service units (CSU), or data service units (DSU).
Before you begin, read these important notes about cabling:
Before you install the Cisco NCS 4216, have all the additional external equipment and cables on hand. For information about ordering, contact a Cisco customer service representative.
The extent of your network and the distances between the network interface connections depend in part on the following factors:
The distance and rate limits referenced in the following sections are the IEEE-recommended maximum speeds and distances for signaling purposes. Use this information as a guideline in planning your network connections >prior to installing the Cisco NCS 4216.
If wires exceed the recommended distances, or if wires pass between buildings, give special consideration to the effect of a lightning strike in your vicinity. The electromagnetic pulse caused by lightning or other high-energy phenomena can easily couple enough energy into unshielded conductors to destroy electronic devices. If you have had problems of this sort in the past, you may want to consult experts in cal surge suppression and shielding.
The RSP provides a console port to connect a terminal or computer for local console access. The port has an RJ45 connector and supports RS-232 asynchronous data with distance recommendations specified in the IEEE RS-232 standard.
When wires are run for any significant distance, there is a risk that stray signals will be induced on the wires as interference. If interference signals are strong, they can cause data errors or damage to the equipment.
The following sections describe sources of interference and how to minimize its effects on the Cisco NCS 4216 system.
All equipment powered by DC current can propagate cal energy that can cause EMI and possibly affect the operation of other equipment. The typical sources of EMI are equipment power cords and power service cables from c utility companies.
Strong EMI can destroy the signal drivers and receivers in the Cisco NCS 4216 and even create an cal hazard by causing power surges through the power lines into installed equipment. These problems are rare but could be catastrophic.
To resolve these problems, you need specialized knowledge and equipment that could consume substantial time and money. However, you can ensure that you have a properly grounded and shielded cal environment, paying special attention to the need for cal surge suppression.
For information about the electrode magnetic compliance standards supported on the Cisco NCS 4216, see Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco NCS 4216.
When electromagnetic fields act over a long distance, radio frequency interference (RFI) may be propagated. Building wiring can often act as an antenna, receiving the RFI signals and creating more EMI on the wiring.
If you use twisted-pair cable in your plant wiring with a good distribution of grounding conductors, the plant wiring is unlikely to emit radio interference. If you exceed the recommended distances, use a high-quality twisted-pair cable with one ground conductor for each data signal.
The sections provide guidelines for rack-mounting the Cisco NCS 4216
The following rack-mount guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:
The Cisco NCS 4216 can be mounted in most two-post or four-post, 23-inch equipment racks that comply with the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard for equipment racks (EIA-310-D 23-inch). The rack must have at least two posts with mounting flanges to mount the chassis.
Caution | When mounting a chassis in any type of rack equipment, ensure that the inlet air to the chassis does not exceed 65 degrees C. |
The distance between the center lines of the mounting holes on the two mounting posts must be 18.31 inches ± 0.06 inch (46.50 cm ± 0.15 cm).
Consider installing the Cisco NCS 4216 in a rack with the following features:
Note | The Cisco NCS 4216 should not be installed in an enclosed rack because the chassis requires an unobstructed flow of cooling air to maintain acceptable operating temperatures for its internal components. Installing the router in any type of enclosed rack—even with the side doors removed —could disrupt the air flow, trap heat next to the chassis, and cause an overtemperature condition inside the router. If you use an enclosed rack, ensure that there are air vents on all sides of the rack and there is proper ventilation. To Install Air Plenum on 19-inch rack, select Flat Rack Post type. |
The placement of the rack can affect personnel safety, system maintenance, and the system’s ability to operate within the environmental characteristics described in the System Specifications section. Choose a proper location for the Cisco NCS 4216 by following the guidelines.
If the Cisco NCS 4216 is the heaviest or the only piece of equipment in the rack, consider installing it at or near the bottom to ensure that the rack’s center of gravity is as low as possible.
For additional information about the proper placement of electronic equipment, consult the document GR-63-CORE, Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Requirements: Physical Protection.
Keep at least 3 feet of clear space at the front and back of the rack. This space ensures that you can remove the Cisco NCS 4216 components and perform routine maintenance and upgrades easily.
Avoid installing the Cisco NCS 4216 in a congested rack and consider how routing of cables from other pieces of equipment in the same rack could affect access to the router cards.
The sides of the chassis must remain unobstructed to ensure adequate airflow and prevent overheating inside the chassis.
Allow the following clearances for normal system maintenance:
To avoid problems during installation and ongoing operations, follow these general precautions when you plan equipment locations and connections:
Ensure that the Cisco NCS 4216 location has enough airflow to keep the system operating within the environmental characteristics and the air temperature is sufficient to compensate for the heat dissipated by the system. For more information, see the Air Flow Guidelines section.
