Cisco Connected Grid Routers 2010 Hardware Installation Guide

Rack-Mounting the Chassis

The Cisco CGR 2010 router can be installed in a 19-inch (48.26-cm) standard rack.

You can mount the router in the following ways:

• Power-supply side mounting—Brackets attached at the power supply side of the chassis with the power-supply side facing forward.
• Cable-side mounting—Brackets attached at the cable side of the chassis with the cable side facing forward.

Rack-Mount Brackets for the Cisco CGR 2010 Router shows the rack-mount brackets used with the Cisco CGR 2010 router.

Figure 1 Rack-Mount Brackets for the Cisco CGR 2010 Router

Attaching Rack-Mount Brackets to Cisco CGR 2010 Routers

To attach the long side of each bracket to the Cisco CGR 2010 router, use four of the supplied number-8 Phillips flat-head screws.

Bracket Installation for Power-Supply Side Mounting shows how to attach the brackets to the sides of the router with the power-supply side forward.

Figure 2 Bracket Installation for Power-Supply Side Mounting

 

Bracket Installation for Cable-Side Mounting shows how to attach the brackets to the sides of the router with the cable-side forward.

Figure 3 Bracket Installation for Cable-Side Mounting

 

 

Caution: Do not over-torque the screws. The recommended torque is 15 to 18 inch-lb (1.7 to 2.0 N-m).

Attach the second bracket to the opposite side of the chassis. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to install the number-8 bracket screws.

Caution: Your chassis installation must allow unrestricted airflow for chassis cooling.

Mounting the Router in a Rack

After you attach the rack-mount brackets to the router chassis, use the screws provided with the rack to install the chassis in the rack. See Mounting the Chassis in a Rack (Typical Installation)

Note: The screw slots in the brackets are spaced to line up with every second pair of screw holes in the rack. When the correct screw holes are used, the small threaded holes in the brackets line up with unused screw holes in the rack. If the small holes do not line up with the rack holes, you must raise or lower the brackets to the next rack hole.

Caution: A space of 1 RU above each Cisco CGR 2010 router is required for sufficient air ventilation.

Connecting AC Power

This section explains how to connect AC power to the Cisco CGR 2010 router.

Warning: Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the power source. Statement 1004

To connect an AC power supply:

1. Verify that power is off to the circuit on the power supply that you are removing. As an added precaution, place the appropriate safety flag and lockout devices at the source power circuit breaker, or place a piece of adhesive tape over the circuit breaker handle to prevent accidental power restoration while you are working on the circuit.

2. Observe the power-input terminal on the left edge of the router’s cable side. See Power-Input Terminal Designations

Figure 6 Power-Input Terminal Designations

Note: The power-supply module 1 connection is labeled PSU1, and the power-supply module 2 connection is labeled PSU2. Ensure that you connect the wires to the correct terminal screws.

3. Use twisted-pair copper wire to connect from the power-input terminal to the power source.

Note: Use 12-AWG (minimum) for the low-voltage DC power supply module. Use 14-AWG (minimum) or 12-AWG (maximum) for the high-voltage DC or AC power supply module.

4. Strip each of the two wires to 0.25 inch (6.3 mm) ± 0.02 inch (0.5 mm). See Stripping the Input Power Source Wire

Figure 7 Stripping the Input Power Source Wire

Note: Do not strip more than 0.27 inch (6.8 mm) of insulation from the wire. Stripping more than the recommended amount of wire can leave exposed wire from the connector after installation.

5. To connect AC power:

Warning: When installing or replacing the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last. Statement 1046

Apply these instructions with the power cable attached to the CGR 2010 but not connected to a power source.

a. Connect the Ground wire (the green or green/yellow lead of the cable) into the terminal marked with the ground symbol. See item 7 in Power-Input Terminal Designations

b. Connect the Line wire (the black or brown lead of the cable) into the terminal screw labeled L . See item 1 in Power-Input Terminal Designations.

c. Connect the Neutral wire (the white or blue lead of the cable) into the terminal screw labeled N .
See item 2 in Power-Input Terminal Designations.

Note: Ensure that you cannot see any wire lead. Only wire with insulation should extend from the terminal screw.

d. Use a tie wrap to secure the cable to the central strain relief tab next to the terminal block on the chassis. Secure the cable immediately adjacent to the terminal block to minimize strain on the cable.

The strain relief mechanism consists of three metal loops built into the chassis next to the terminal block. See Using Tie Wraps with the Strain Relief Mechanism.

Note: Do not overtighten the tie wrap to the loops. This could damage the wiring insulation. An overtightened tie wrap could cause cold-flow of the wire insulation, which in turn could cause shorting of the power source to the chassis.

New Steps start here with respect to Ferrite Clamp.

e. Open ferrite clamp (Ferrite Clamp for Power Cord) and lay AC power cable inside center channel keeping the clamp’s closest face no more than 2 inches away from the chassis.

(PID: info pending)

Figure 8 Ferrite Clamp for Power Cord

f. Starting from the farther end of the ferrite clamp (away from chassis), wrap power cable back towards chassis and back through center channel of ferrite clamp so that there are two wraps of cable inside the center channel (two turns).

g. Close the ferrite clamp and continue connecting power cable to power source.

h. Secure cable/clamp to chassis to limit movement ( Secure Cable and Ferrite Clamp to Chassis) to the central strain relief tab as shown in Using Tie Wraps with the Strain Relief Mechanism.

New steps end here

Figure 10 Using Tie Wraps with the Strain Relief Mechanism

Caution: Ensure that all strands of a stranded wire are properly captured into the terminal block. A loose strand could possibly short the chassis and result in a hazard.

i. Use minimum 14 AWG or maximum 12 AWG copper wire to connect the router to a 15 A branch circuit in accordance with local electrical code requirements.

6. Fully insert the uninsulated lead in to the terminal block and screw each captive screw on the terminal block tight to ensure proper connection.

Caution: The AWG size of the wires feeding power to the input terminal block is a minimum of 14 AWG (2.0 mm2) or a maximum of 12 AWG (3.309 mm2), all for a 15 Amp branch circuit. 12 AWG is the largest wire that the terminal block will accept.

7. Torque the captive screws (above the wires) to 8.5 in-lb (± 0.5 in-lb).

Caution: Do not touch the terminal block when energy is restored. The terminal block screw heads and any exposed wiring could have hazardous line voltages (depending on the voltage source). The Cisco CGR 2010 router is intended to be installed in a restricted access location and serviced by trained personnel only.

8. Connect the other end of the line wire (the wire connected to L ) to the line terminal on the AC power source.

9. Connect the other end of the neutral wire (the wire connected to N ) to the neutral terminal on the AC power source.

10. Turn on the power at the AC circuit, then verify that the following LEDs are green:

— On the power-supply module: PSU OK LED. See Power Supply Side View LEDs on the Cisco CGR 2010 Router

— On the router: PSU1 (bottom) or PSU2 LED (top). See Power Supply Side View LEDs on the Cisco CGR 2010 Router

— Verify that the voltage at the router is within the rated operating voltage range of the product by using a meter or issuing the show environment command. For normal operating voltages, see Power-Supply Modules

11. If you have two power supplies, install the second power supply in the available slot and repeat Step 1 through Step 10.

Connecting DC Power

This section explains how to connect DC power to the Cisco CGR 2010 router.

Warning: Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the power source. Statement 1004

To connect an DC power supply:

1. Verify that power is off to the circuit on the power supply that you are removing. As an added precaution, place the appropriate safety flag and lockout devices at the source power circuit breaker, or place a piece of adhesive tape over the circuit breaker handle to prevent accidental power restoration while you are working on the circuit.

2. Observe the power-input terminal on the left edge of the router cable side. See Power-Input Terminal Designations .

Figure 11 Power-Input Terminal Designations

Protecting the Terminal Block from Exposure

You can protect the Cisco CGR 2010 router terminal block from exposure with the terminal block cover. See CGR 2010 Power Terminal Cover .

Note: The terminal block cover is intended to protect against inadvertent contact with the exposed terminals of the input terminal block. The terminal block cover does not comply with the safety standard requirements for enclosures. Consequently, even with the terminal block cover installed, the CGR 2010 router still needs to be located in a restricted access location, accessible only by trained service personnel who recognize the hazards in that environment and are trained to take the necessary precautions.

Figure 15 CGR 2010 Power Terminal Cover

To attach the CGR 2010 terminal block cover:

1. Access the cable side of the router.

2. Locate the terminal blocks on the left side of the chassis.

3. To secure the terminal block cover, first insert the two clips on the right side, then insert the single clip on the left side, as shown in CGR 2010 Power Terminal Cover .

4. You can funnel cables into the terminal block through the cable routing holes on the left side of the cover.

Shutting Off Power

Even though shutting off power to the Cisco CGR 2010 router is anticipated to be infrequent, there may be occasion to turn off the router. There is no on/off switch on the Cisco CGR 2010 router. This ensures that there will not be any accidental shutdown due to inadvertently turning off a power switch; thus, guaranteeing a high reliability in keeping the router up. To shut off power to the router, there are two options:

• Pull the power supply modules out of the Cisco CGR 2010 router. See Replacing Power Supplies and Redundant Power Supplies.

The power supplies on the Cisco CGR 2010 router are hot swappable, so merely removing them from the router will remove power from the router and shut it down.

• Install a disconnect device for the Cisco CGR 2010 router.

A disconnect device must be located in the proximity of the Cisco CGR 2010 router and must be readily accessible. The disconnect device must also comply with IEC 60947-1 and IEC 60947-3 or an equivalent approved disconnect device appropriate for the country of installation and be identified as the disconnect device for this equipment.

Note: The maximum current rating for the power disconnect circuit breaker or overcurrent device must be 15 Amps. Operational power must be internally fused. This fuse cannot be replaced by the user. In the event of the disconnect device failing, return the unit to the factory for repair.

Replacing Power Supplies and Redundant Power Supplies

Before you perform power supply replacement, read the Safety Warnings and disconnect power when noted.

The Cisco CGR 2010 routers have replaceable power supplies. Use a Number 2 Phillips screwdriver to remove or install the power supply.

Caution: Any combination of power supplies can be inserted into the chassis. Dual power supply configurations are load sharing in redundancy mode.

A single power supply is sufficient for supporting power needs to the system. A single PSU can be deployed in either slot 1 (PSU1) or slot 2 (PSU2).

Note: The power supplies are hot swappable. The power supply LED must show it is properly functioning before removing the other power supply in the router.

Replacing the Cisco CGR 2010 Router Power Supply

For the following steps see Removing the Cisco CGR 2010 Router Power Supply for the locations of connectors and other components within the Cisco CGR 2010 router.

To replace the power supply in a Cisco CGR 2010 router:

1. Loosen the captive screws that fasten the power supply to the chassis.

2. Pull the power supply out of the chassis. See Removing the Cisco CGR 2010 Router Power Supply.
