The front view of an FCC with modular configuration power shelves installed is similar.


Note


While it is possible to install the various front exterior components on the chassis in a different order, it is easier to install them in the order outlined in this section.

This section describes how to perform the following tasks:

Prerequisites

Before performing this task, you must first unpack and secure the chassis. See Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System Fabric Card Chassis Unpacking, Moving, and Securing Guide .

Required Tools and Equipment

You need the following tools and part to perform this task:

  • 8-in. long number 1 Phillips screwdriver—magnetic head preferable
  • 10-mm hex key wrench
  • 2-mm hex key wrench (for adjusting door set screws)
  • Torque wrench with 10-mm hex key and rated accuracy at 40 to 50 in-lb. (4.52 to 5.65 N-m)
  • Front cosmetic kit (Cisco product number: CRS-FCC-FRNT-CM=)
  • Front doors (Cisco product number: CRS-FCC-DRS-FR=)

Steps

To install the front (SFC) side exterior cosmetic components, perform the following steps:

SUMMARY STEPS

    1.    Attach each unistrut to the top of the chassis by inserting the twelve M12 hex head bolts and washers, six for each strut, into the bolt holes on the inside of the strut and tightening with the 10-mm hex key wrench. The closed end of a unistrut faces the front [SFC] side of the chassis), see the figure below.

    2.    Attach the front upper grille support (number 1 in the figure below) to the unistruts by inserting four M4x14-mm flat head screws, two for each unistrut, through the holes at the top of the front vertical cable troughs and tightening them to the unistruts with the screwdriver.

    3.    Attach the power shelf shutoff extenders (number 2 in the figure below) by inserting the four M4 panhead screws, two for each power shelf shutoff extender, and tightening them with the screwdriver.

    4.    Attach the front vertical cable troughs—one on the right and one on the left—to the front (SFC) side of the chassis (see the figure below) by i nserting the 10 M4x14-mm flat head screws (5 on each side). Use the screwdriver to fasten screws to attach the cable troughs firmly to the chassis.

    5.    Attach the front upper grille (optional) by carefully inserting the tabs on the grille into the hook hanger brackets on the top of the upper grille support (see the figure below).

    6.    Press the grille firmly against the grille support until it snaps onto the ball stud snaps on the front (SFC) side of the chassis.

    7.    Place the logo bezel (see the figure below) over the bezel support, and press firmly until the bezel snaps onto the ball stud snaps on the front (SFC) side of the chassis.

    8.    Using the screwdriver, loosen the four captive screws, two on each side, that secure the lower grille screen to its frame assembly; then carefully set the screen aside. See the figure below.

    9.    Attach the frame assembly to the chassis (see the figure below) by aligning the four screws, two on each side, on the frame to the screw holes on the chassis and tightening them with the screwdriver.

    10.    Reattach the inlet grille screen (see the above figure) to the frame assembly by aligning the four captive screws on the screen to the screw holes on the frame assembly and tightening the screws with the screwdriver.

    11.    Attach the lower grille to the chassis by carefully inserting the tabs on the grille into the hook hanger brackets. See the figure below.

    12.    Press the lower grille firmly until it snaps onto the ball stud snaps. See the figure below.

    13.    Orient the doors so that the keyhole slots are pointing upwards.

    14.    Align the doors vertically in their appropriate positions so you can determine where to thread the first two screws that are adjacent to the keyholes. See the figure below. Set the doors aside, and thread the two screws.

    15.    Place the doors on the screws in the keyhole positions, two for each door.

    16.    Insert four M4x8-mm wafer-head screws (two on each side) into the appropriate screw holes in the doors, and use the screwdriver to tighten fully.

    17.    Insert and fully tighten all screws.

    18.    Ensure that the doors are properly aligned.


DETAILED STEPS
    Step 1   Attach each unistrut to the top of the chassis by inserting the twelve M12 hex head bolts and washers, six for each strut, into the bolt holes on the inside of the strut and tightening with the 10-mm hex key wrench. The closed end of a unistrut faces the front [SFC] side of the chassis), see the figure below.
    Note    The right unistrut (as you face the front [SFC] side of the chassis) has a cutaway in the rear to admit the chassis ground cable; the left strut does not.
    Caution   

    Cisco recommends an install torque range for the unistrut bolts between 40 and 50 to in-lb. (between 4.52 N-m and 5.65 N-m).

    Step 2   Attach the front upper grille support (number 1 in the figure below) to the unistruts by inserting four M4x14-mm flat head screws, two for each unistrut, through the holes at the top of the front vertical cable troughs and tightening them to the unistruts with the screwdriver.
    Note    Both fixed configuration power shelves must be installed in the chassis before installing the power shelf shutoff extenders. See the chapter Installing and Removing Power Components for more information.
    Step 3   Attach the power shelf shutoff extenders (number 2 in the figure below) by inserting the four M4 panhead screws, two for each power shelf shutoff extender, and tightening them with the screwdriver.

    Step 4   Attach the front vertical cable troughs—one on the right and one on the left—to the front (SFC) side of the chassis (see the figure below) by i nserting the 10 M4x14-mm flat head screws (5 on each side). Use the screwdriver to fasten screws to attach the cable troughs firmly to the chassis.
    Note    We recommend that you use two people to install the troughs, one person to hold the troughs in place while the other person inserts and tightens the screws.
    Figure 5. Attaching the Front (SFC) Side Vertical Cable Troughs—Fixed Configuration Power Shown

    Step 5   Attach the front upper grille (optional) by carefully inserting the tabs on the grille into the hook hanger brackets on the top of the upper grille support (see the figure below).
    Step 6   Press the grille firmly against the grille support until it snaps onto the ball stud snaps on the front (SFC) side of the chassis.
    Note    Before you attach the upper grille, you must have the power shutoff extenders installed (fixed configuration power only). See Step 3.
    Step 7   Place the logo bezel (see the figure below) over the bezel support, and press firmly until the bezel snaps onto the ball stud snaps on the front (SFC) side of the chassis.
    Figure 6. Attaching the Front (SFC) Side Upper Grille and Logo Bezel—Fixed Configuration Power Shown

    Note    In this task, you must first remove the lower grille screen from the frame, because the screws that attach the frame assembly to the chassis are inboard of the screen—that is, the new screen is shipped already installed into the new frame assembly, but you cannot attach the new frame to the chassis until you remove the screen first. When the new frame assembly is installed, you can reinstall the lower grille screen into the new frame.
    Step 8   Using the screwdriver, loosen the four captive screws, two on each side, that secure the lower grille screen to its frame assembly; then carefully set the screen aside. See the figure below.
    Step 9   Attach the frame assembly to the chassis (see the figure below) by aligning the four screws, two on each side, on the frame to the screw holes on the chassis and tightening them with the screwdriver.

    Step 13   Orient the doors so that the keyhole slots are pointing upwards.
    Step 14   Align the doors vertically in their appropriate positions so you can determine where to thread the first two screws that are adjacent to the keyholes. See the figure below. Set the doors aside, and thread the two screws.
    Caution   

    The doors scratch easily, so they should be handled with care.

    Figure 9. Attaching the Front (SFC) Side Exterior Doors

    Step 15   Place the doors on the screws in the keyhole positions, two for each door.
    Step 16   Insert four M4x8-mm wafer-head screws (two on each side) into the appropriate screw holes in the doors, and use the screwdriver to tighten fully.
    Note    Verify that Step 13 was completed correctly to ensure proper orientation of doors. The screw locations vary depending on the door. If all screw holes for a door do not align with the screw holes on the front (SFC) side of the chassis, you need to use the other door.
    Step 17   Insert and fully tighten all screws.
    Step 18   Ensure that the doors are properly aligned.
    1. Check to see if the doors close without interfering with each other.
      Note    Typically, the doors will close without interfering with each other. However, you may need to adjust either the left or right door, or both, to align the doors properly. Adjust doors only if necessary.
    2. To decrease the door gap, loosen the five screws that secure the vertical trough to the chassis. Using the 2 mm hex key wrench, tighten the bottom set screws (number 1 in the figure below) one full turn. Snug the five screws that attach the vertical trough to the chassis and check the door alignment.
    3. To increase the door gap, loosen the five screws that secure the vertical trough to the chassis. Using the 2 mm hex key wrench, tighten the top set screws (number 2 in the figure below) one full turn. Snug the five screws that attach the vertical trough to the chassis and check the door alignment.

        Step 14   Press the grille firmly against the grille support until it snaps onto the ball stud snaps on the rear (OIM) side of the chassis.
        Step 15   Attach the rear lower bezel by carefully inserting the tabs on the grille into the hook hanger brackets on the lower bezel frame. Press the grille firmly against the grille frame until it snaps onto the ball stud snaps on the rear (OIM) side of the chassis (see see the figure below).

        Step 16   Orient the doors so that the keyhole slots are pointing up.
        Caution   

        The doors scratch easily, so they should be handled with care.

        Step 17   Align the doors vertically in their appropriate positions so you can determine where to thread the first two screws that are adjacent to the keyholes. See the figure below. Set the doors aside, and thread the two screws.
        Figure 28. Attaching the Rear (OIM) Side Exterior Doors

        Step 18   Place the doors on the screws in the keyhole positions, two for each door.
        Step 19   Insert four M4x8-mm wafer-head screws (two on each side) into the appropriate screw holes in the doors, and use the screwdriver to fully tighten.
        Note    Verify that Step 16 was completed correctly to ensure proper orientation of doors. The screw locations vary depending on the door. If all screw holes for a door do not align with the screw holes on the front (SFC) side of the chassis, you need to use the other door.
        Step 20   Insert and fully tighten all screws.
        Step 21   Ensure that the doors are properly aligned.
        1. Check to see if the doors close without interfering with each other.
          Note    Typically, the doors will close without interfering with each other. However, you may need to adjust either the left or right door, or both, to align the doors properly. Adjust doors only if necessary.
        2. To decrease the door gap, loosen the five screws that secure the vertical trough to the chassis. Tighten the bottom set screws (number 1 in Figure 8) one full turn. Snug the five screws that attach the vertical trough to the chassis and check the door alignment.
        3. To increase the door gap, loosen the five screws that secure the vertical trough to the chassis. Tighten the top set screws (number 2 in Figure 8) one full turn. Snug the five screws that attach the vertical trough to the chassis and check the door alignment.

        4. Repeat the procedure as necessary until the doors are properly aligned.
        5. Tighten the five screws that secure the vertical trough to the chassis.

        What to Do Next

        After performing this task, insert the rear horizontal Velcro cable bracket straps and install cabling that connects the FCC to the other components in the multishelf system. See the Cisco CRS Carrier Routing System Multishelf System Interconnection and Cabling Guide for more information.

        This section describes how to remove the rear (OIM) side exterior cosmetic components, shown in Figure 2, from the FCC. This section includes all the steps for you to remove all the cosmetic parts from your chassis, but you are not required to do so. To remove a particular part, see the appropriate step in the Steps section that follows.

        This section describes how to perform the following tasks:


        Note


        While it is possible to remove most of the rear cosmetic parts on the FCC separately, some parts (such as a unistrut) require that other parts be removed first.

        Prerequisites

        Ensure that you have all the original packaging material for the cosmetic components available.

        Required Tools and Equipment

        You need the following tools to perform this task:

        • 8-in. long number 1 Phillips screwdriver—magnetic head preferable

        Steps
