Weight of fully configured chassis	140 lb (63.5 kg)

Floor Loading Considerations

Ensure that the floor under the rack supporting the Cisco 10005 series router is capable of supporting the combined weight of the rack and all other installed equipment.

To assess the weight of the fully configured Cisco 10005 chassis, refer to Table 1-3.

For additional information about floor loading requirements, consult the document GR-63-CORE, Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Requirements: Physical Protection.

Site Power Requirements

The Cisco 10005 series router has specific power and electrical wiring requirements. Adhering to these requirements ensures reliable operation of the system. The following sections specify the electrical service and circuit requirements.

Electrical Service Requirements

The building's electrical wiring supplying power to the Cisco 10005 series router must comply with all applicable building electrical codes. Also, the installation must comply with the following requirements:

•Wiring must have copper conductors. Copper conductor is the only electrical wire conductor approved for use with the Cisco 10000 series router.

•Ground bond fastening hardware must be of compatible material and resist loosening or deteriorating. Also, the joined hardware materials must resist electrochemical corrosion.

•Chassis grounding must be provided to avoid damage to the equipment due to lightning striking power lines or due to power surges. The chassis ground must be attached to a central office or other interior ground system with a copper ground conductor of 6 AWG (minimum).

•Short-circuit (overcurrent) protection must be provided as part of the building installation. Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations.

•Power conditioning must be installed if the power surges or has spikes.

•2-poled disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed circuit wiring for emergency power shutdown.

Electrical Circuit Requirements

Each Cisco 10005 series router requires a dedicated electrical circuit. If you equip it with dual power feeds, provide a separate circuit for each PEM to avoid compromising the power redundancy feature.

The Cisco 10005 series router can be powered by a DC or AC source. Ensure the equipment grounding is in compliance with local and national electrical codes.

The following sections contain specific recommendations for AC and DC powered systems.

AC Powered Systems

The AC Power Supply of the Cisco 10005 router chassis has an IEC 320 C20 male AC inlet connector, which mates to an AC power cord with an IEC 320 C19 connector on one end, and a connector compatible with the building's AC receptacle on the other end. When you order the chassis, you must specify the type of connector you need to ensure compatibility with the building's AC receptacle.

The electrical ratings of the Cisco 10005 router AC power supply are:

•AC input voltage and frequency (single phase):

–Nominal range: 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz

–Absolute maximum range: 90 to 255 VAC, 47 to 63 Hz

•AC input current: 15 to 7 A

•Input power consumption: 1500W maximum

DC Powered Systems

The DC PEMs for the Cisco 10005 router chassis are not shipped with wiring to connect to the DC source. Both systems have terminal blocks to attach building's input, return, and earthing (ground) wiring. The DC power source must comply with the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) requirements in IEC 60950 based safety standards.

The electrical ratings of the DC PEMs for both the Cisco 10005 chassis are:

•DC input voltage:

–Nominal range -48 VDC to -60 VDC

–Absolute maximum range -40.5 VDC to -75 VDC

•DC input current: 20A @ -48 VDC

•Power consumption: 1300W maximum

Site Cabling Guidelines

This section contains guidelines for wiring and cabling at your site. When preparing your site for network connections to the Cisco 10005 series router, consider the type of cable required for each line card, and the cable's limitations. 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 (CSUs), or data service units (DSUs).

Before you install the Cisco 10005 series router, have all additional external equipment and cables on hand. For ordering information, contact a customer service representative.

Asynchronous Terminal Connections

The PRE provides a Console Port to connect a terminal or computer for local console access. The PRE also provides an Auxiliary Port to connect to a modem for remote dial-in console access.

Both ports have RJ-45 connectors, support RS-232 asynchronous data, and have distance recommendations specified in the IEEE RS-232 standard.

Ethernet Connections

The distance you can extend your networks or the distances between them depends on the type of signal, signal speed, and transmission media used. The following sections detail recommendations for Ethernet connections.

Ethernet and Fast Ethernet over Twisted-Pair

Ethernet (10BaseT) and Fast Ethernet (100BaseT) signaling is typically over twisted-pair cabling. The IEEE has specific distance limitations detailed in IEEE standard 802.3, but industry experience has shown that connections remain reliable at speeds and distances far greater than these. If you choose to exceed the distances and speeds recommended by the IEEE, you do so at your own risk.

Table 1-4 shows the distance limits for Ethernet 10BaseT and 100BaseT signal types over twisted-pair cabling.

Table 1-4 Ethernet and Fast Ethernet Maximum Transmission Distances

Signal Type	Transceiver Speed	Cable Type	Transmission Mode	IEEE Maximum Distance Between Stations
10BaseT Ethernet	10 Mbps	Category 3 twisted-pair	Full and half duplex	328 ft (100 m)
100BaseT Fast Ethernet	100 Mbps	Category 5 twisted-pair	Full and half duplex	328 ft (100 m)

Setting Up Fiber-Optic Connections

For other fiber-optic specifications, see the Cisco 10000 Series Routers Line Card Hardware Installation Guide.

Interference Considerations

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 10005 series router.

Electromagnetic Interference

All equipment powered by AC current can propagate electrical energy that can cause electromagnetic interference (EMI) and possibly affect the operation of other equipment. The typical sources of EMI are equipment power cords and power service cables from electric utility companies.

Strong EMI can destroy the signal drivers and receivers in the Cisco 10005 series router and even create an electrical hazard by causing power surges through power lines into installed equipment. These problems are rare, but could be catastrophic.

To resolve these problems, you need specialized knowledge and equipment, which could consume substantial time and money. However, you should ensure that you have a properly grounded and shielded electrical environment, paying special attention to the need for electrical surge suppression.

Radio Frequency Interference

When electromagnetic fields act over a long distance, radio frequency interference (RFI) can 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.

Lightning and AC Power Fault Interference

If signal wires exceed recommended cabling distances, or if signal wires pass between buildings, you should consider the effect that a lightning strike in your vicinity might have on the Cisco 10005 series router.

The electromagnetic pulse (EMP) generated by lightning or other high-energy phenomena can couple enough energy into unshielded conductors to damage or destroy electronic equipment. If you have previously experienced such problems, you should consult with RFI/EMI experts to ensure that you have adequate electrical surge suppression and shielding of signal cables in your Cisco 10005 series router operating environment.

Rack-Mounting and Location Guidelines

The sections that follow describe criteria for selecting a rack to mount the Cisco 10005 series router, and guidelines for placing the rack for reliable operation.

Rack Selection Guidelines

We recommend that you mount the Cisco 10005 series router in an equipment rack, and includes the necessary rack-mounting hardware which is suitable for most 19-inch equipment and Telco-type racks.

Consider installing the Cisco 10005 series router in a rack with the following features:

•NEBS compliant, 19-inch (48.3 cm) wide rack; or NEBS compliant 23-inch (58.4 cm) wide rack.

•EIA or ETSI hole patterns in the mounting rails. Required mounting hardware (screws, clip nuts, and dress washers) is shipped with the Cisco 10005 series  router. If the rack that you plan to install the system in has metric-threaded rails, you must provide your own metric mounting hardware.

•Perforated top and open bottom for ventilation to prevent overheating.

•Leveling feet for stability.

Rack Configuration Guidelines

Several rack-mounting configurations are possible to provide maximum density. The following sections describe mounting configurations for the Cisco 10005 chassis.

Cisco 10005 Chassis

You can mount six Cisco 10005 chassis in a standard 7-foot-high rack, with 3 inches between each rack for wiring management. The 10005 chassis can be flush mounted, or mid-mounted to bring the front of the chassis 6 inches out from the mounting rails.

Bracket Extenders are required to mid-mount the Cisco 10005 chassis in a 23-inch Telco rack. For more information on mid-mounting, see "Mounting in a 23-Inch Rack" section.

Rack Placement Guidelines

The placement of the rack can affect personnel safety, system maintenance, and the system's ability to operate within the environmental characteristics described in Table 1-1. Choose a proper location for the Cisco 10005 series router by following the guidelines below.

Locating for Safety

If the Cisco 10005 series router 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.

Locating for Easy Maintenance

Keep at least 3 feet of clear space in front and behind the rack. This space ensures that you can remove the Cisco 10005 series router cards and perform routine maintenance and upgrades easily.

Avoid installing the Cisco 10000 series router in a congested rack, and consider how the routing of cables from other pieces of equipment in the same rack could affect access to the routers cards.

Locating for Proper Airflow

Ensure the location of the Cisco 10005 series router has enough airflow to keep the system operating within the environmental characteristics described in Table 1-1, and the air temperature is sufficient to compensate for the heat dissipated by the system as specified in Table 1-2.

Avoid locating the Cisco 10005 series router in a location in which the chassis air intake vents could draw in the exhaust air from adjacent equipment. Consider how the air flows through the Cisco 10005 series router, and be aware that the airflow of the Cisco 10005 chassis is different as described in the following sections.

Cisco 10005 Chassis Airflow

The Cisco 10005 chassis draws cooling air in through the intake vents on the right side of the chassis and moves the air across the internal components and out the exhaust vents on the left side of the chassis, as illustrated in Figure 1-3.

Figure 1-3 Cisco 10005 Chassis Airflow

To ensure adequate airflow and prevent overheating inside the chassis, ensure both sides of the Cisco 10005 chassis remain unobstructed. We recommend allowing 3 inches of air space on each side of the chassis.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which occurs when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, can result in complete or intermittent failures. The performance routing engine (PRE) card and all line cards consist of one or more printed circuit cards that are fixed in a metal carrier. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the cards from ESD, use an antistatic strap each time you handle the cards. Handle the carriers by the edges only; never touch the cards or connector pins.

---

Caution Always tighten the captive installation screws on all system components when you are installing them. These screws prevent accidental removal of the module, provide proper grounding for the system, and help to ensure that the modules are properly seated in the backplane.

---

Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

•Always use an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact. Before removing a card from the chassis, connect the equipment end of the strap to the ESD jack at the bottom left corner at the front of the chassis (Figure 1-4).

•Handle line cards by the faceplates and carrier edges only; avoid touching the card components or any connector pins.

Figure 1-4 ESD Chassis Connection

•When you remove a line card, place the removed module component-side-up on an antistatic surface or in a static-shielding bag. If the module will be returned to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding bag.

•Avoid contact between the modules and clothing. The wrist strap protects the card from ESD voltages on the body only; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

---

Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be between 1 and 10 megohms.

---

Electrical Safety

All system components are hot-swappable. They are designed to be removed and replaced while the system is operating without presenting an electrical hazard or damage to the system.

Follow these basic guidelines when you are working with any electrical equipment:

•Before you begin 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 installing or removing a chassis.

•Do not work alone when 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. Never install equipment that appears damaged.

•Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

In addition, use the guidelines that follow when working with any equipment that is connected to telephone wiring or other network cabling—even if that equipment is disconnected from its power source.

•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

•Never install a telephone jack in a wet location 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.

---

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

---

---

Warning Before you work on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry (including rings, necklaces, and watches). Metal objects will heat up when connected to power and ground and the heat can cause serious burns or weld the metal object to the terminals. Statement 43

1	Outside carton	3	Packing straps
2	Pallet

After you receive the Cisco 10000 series router, we recommend that you have three people available to help with the installation and ensure safe lifting.

Chassis-Lifting Guidelines

The fully configured system weighs approximately 140 pounds (63.6 kg). The chassis is not intended to be moved frequently. Before you install the system, ensure that your site is properly prepared so you can avoid moving the chassis later to accommodate power sources and network connections.

Two or more people are required to lift the chassis. Each time you lift the chassis or any heavy object, follow these guidelines:

•Never attempt to lift the chassis by yourself. Because of the size and weight of the chassis, use at least two people to safely lift and move it without causing injury or damaging the equipment.

•Ensure that your footing is solid, and balance the weight of the chassis between your feet.

•Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.

•Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift the chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your back muscles.

•If you remove the fan assembly and power modules to lighten the chassis, be sure to provide anti-static mats or bags to protect the removed components. Be careful when you remove the power modules—they are heavy.

•We recommend that you leave line cards installed in the chassis. Removing line cards greatly increases the chances of damage to the chassis or components and introduces the possibility that you will unintentionally change the configuration.

•Always disconnect all external cables before lifting or moving the chassis.

To safely lift the chassis, perform the following steps:

---

Warning Two people are required to lift the chassis. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. Statement 164
