Cisco ASR 1002-X Router Description

The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router is a part of the Cisco ASR 1000 Aggregation Services Routers. The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router is a compact, small form factor router (SSF) that fulfil customer demands such as low power consumption and decreased usage of rack space.

The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router supports three half-height SPAs and a built-in 6xGE SPA, as also all the general-purpose routing and security features of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers.

The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router supports:

  • An integrated embedded services processor that provides a forwarding bandwidth of 5 Gbps, 10 Gbps, 20 Gbps, or 36 Gbps, depending on the Cisco software license that is installed on the router.

  • Hardware-based encryption with 4 Gbps of cryptography bandwidth.

  • An integrated route processor with upgradeable BootROM and 8 GB eUSB bulk storage.

  • 4 GB, 8GB, or 16 GB memory. The memory unit is field replaceable. By default, the router is shipped with the 4 GB memory unit.


Note
If you plan to use the software redundancy feature on the router, you must order either the 8 GB memory unit or the 16 GB memory unit.

  • Two USB ports for USB flash sticks.

  • 1 + 1 redundant AC or DC power supplies.

  • Stratum 3 network clocking per GR-1244-CORE, with T1/E1 BITS interface, SPAs, or any of the six built-in Gigabit Ethernet ports can be used as timing sources.

  • Console ports and auxiliary ports, Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps network management ports.

  • Clocking, which includes Stratum 3/G.813 Clocking, BITS, In/Out, and GPS input/output interface as well as a ToD interface. The router supports network synchronization clock prioritization.

  • Three half-height SPA slots, which can accommodate any combination of three half-height SPAs or one half-height SPA and one full-height SPA. Each SPA slot can support a throughput of up to 10 Gbps. With the exception of the 2-Port Gigabit Synchronous Ethernet SPA (SPA-2X1GE-SYNCE) and the Cisco WebEx Node SPA, all the SPAs supported by the other Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers are supported by the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router.


Note
On the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router, the copper small form-factor pluggable (SFP) port's flow control is on, regardless of the duplex setting. In contrast, on the Cisco ASR 1002 Router, the copper SFP port's flow control is off when the duplex setting is Half.

  • Built-in 6x1GE SPA providing six SPF-based Gigabit Ethernet connections, designated as SPA bay 0. For optical SFPs, the Gigabit Ethernet ports are SyncE capable. The Gigabit Ethernet ports are not SyncE capable for copper SFPs.

For information about the SFP transceiver modules that are compatible with the Cisco ASR 1002-X Built-in Gigabit Ethernet Ports (6x1GE), refer to the “Modular Optics Compatibility” section in the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers SIP and SPA Hardware Installation Guide .

  • An optional hard drive.

The forwarding bandwidth provided by the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router's ESP can be upgraded to 36 Gbps, depending on the Cisco software license that you install. The power supply modules of the router are field-replaceable units.

Installation Methods

The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router is designed for a standalone, 2-rail 19-inch rack mount (front rail only), 4-rail 19-inch rack mount (front and rear rail).

Although rack-mounting is the preferred method of installation for the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router, you can mount the chassis on an equipment shelf or tabletop.


Note
The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router is usually shipped fully loaded. However, you can remove components such as the power supplies, from the chassis to make the chassis lighter for your rack installation.

Warning

This warning symbol means danger. You are in a situation that could cause bodily injury. Before you work on any equipment, be aware of the hazards involved with electrical circuitry and be familiar with standard practices for preventing accidents. Use the statement number provided at the end of each warning to locate its translation in the translated safety warnings that accompanied this device. Statement 1071


Warning

Before you install, operate, or service the system, read the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers publication. This document provides important safety information you should know before working with the system. Statement 200


Note
Proceed with the installation only after you unpack your chassis and read all the site requirements for your new equipment. Proceed with the installation.

General Rack Installation Guidelines

When planning your rack installation, consider the following guidelines:

  • The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router requires a minimum of 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) rack units of vertical rack space. Measure the proposed rack location before mounting the chassis in the rack.

  • Before using a particular rack, check for obstructions (such as a power strip) that could impair rack mount installation. If a power strip does impair a rack mount installation, remove the power strip before installing the chassis, and replace the strip after the chassis is installed

    .

  • Allow sufficient clearance around the rack for maintenance. If the rack is mobile, you can push it back near a wall or cabinet for normal operation and pull it out for maintenance (installing or moving cards, connecting cables, or replacing or upgrading components). Otherwise, allow 19 inches (48.3 cm) of clearance space to remove field-replaceable units.

  • Maintain a minimum clearance of 3 inches on the front side and back side of the chassis for the cooling air inlet and exhaust ports, respectively. Avoid placing the chassis in an overly congested rack or next to another equipment rack; otherwise, the heated exhaust air from other equipment may enter the inlet air vents and cause an overtemperature condition inside the router.


Caution

To prevent the chassis from overheating, never install a Cisco ASR 1002-X Router in an enclosed room that is not properly ventilated or air conditioned.

  • Always install the heavier equipment in the lower half of a rack to maintain a low center of gravity to prevent the rack from falling over.

  • Install and use the cable management brackets included with the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router to keep the cables organized and out of the way of the cards and processors. Ensure that cables from other equipment already installed in the rack do not impair access to the cards or require you to disconnect cables unnecessarily to perform equipment maintenance or upgrades.

  • Install rack stabilizers (if available) before you mount the chassis.

  • Provide an adequate chassis ground (earth) connection for your router chassis.

In addition to the preceding guidelines, review the precautions for avoiding excessive temperature conditions described in the “Site Environmental Requirements” section on page 5-9 .

Guidelines for an Equipment Shelf or Tabletop Installation

The chassis should already be in the area where you will install it. If you have not determined where to install your chassis, see the “Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Component Overview” section on page 2-1 for information about site considerations.

If you are not rack-mounting your Cisco ASR 1000 series chassis, place it on a sturdy equipment shelf or tabletop.

When installing the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router on an equipment shelf or tabletop, ensure that the surface is clean and that you have considered the following:

  • The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router requires at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) of clearance at the inlet and exhaust vents (the front, top, and rear sides of the chassis).

  • The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router should be installed off the floor. Dust that accumulates on the floor is drawn into the interior of the router by the cooling fans. Excessive dust inside the router can cause overtemperature conditions and component failures.

  • There must be approximately 19 inches (48.3 cm) of clearance at the front and rear of the chassis to install and replace FRUs, or to access network cables and equipment.

  • The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router needs adequate ventilation. Do not install it in an enclosed cabinet where ventilation is inadequate.

  • Ensure that the cable management bracket is available if you plan to install it on the front of the chassis.

  • An adequate chassis ground (earth) connection exists for your router chassis. (See the Attaching a Chassis Ground Connection

  • When handling the chassis, always follow proper lifting practices as outlined in the “Electrical Safety” section on page 5-21 .

  • Two-post rack, either 19-inch or 23-inch equipment rack. Inner clearance (the width between the inner sides of the two posts or rails) must be at least 19 inches (48.26 cm). The height of the chassis is 3.47 inches (8.8 cm). Air flow through the chassis is from front to back.

  • Four-post, 19-inch equipment rack. Inner clearance (the width between the inner sides of the two posts or rails) must be at least 19 inches (48.26 cm). The height of the chassis is 3.47 inches (8.8 cm). Air flow through the chassis is from front to back.


Note
When handling the chassis, always follow proper lifting practices. See the “Chassis-Lifting Guidelines” section on page 5-23 .

The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router can be installed with both front or rear rack mount brackets.

Verifying Rack Dimensions

Before you install the chassis, measure the space between the vertical mounting flanges (rails) on your equipment rack to verify that the rack conforms to the measurements shown in the following image.

SUMMARY STEPS

  1. Mark and measure the distance between the holes on the left and right mounting rails.
  2. Measure the space between the inner edges of the left front and right front mounting flanges on the equipment rack.

DETAILED STEPS

Step 1

Mark and measure the distance between the holes on the left and right mounting rails.

The distance should measure 18.31 inches ± 0.06 inches (46.5 cm ± 0.15 cm).

Note 
Measure for pairs of holes near the bottom, middle, and top of the equipment rack to ensure that the rack posts are parallel.
Step 2

Measure the space between the inner edges of the left front and right front mounting flanges on the equipment rack.

The space must be at least 17.7 inches (45 cm) to accommodate the chassis that is 17.25 inches (43.8 cm) wide and fits between the mounting posts on the rack.

Figure 10. Verifying the Equipment Rack Dimensions

Attaching the Chassis Rack Mount Brackets

This section explains how to attach the front and rear rack mount brackets to the chassis. Before installing the chassis in the rack, you must install the rack mount brackets on each side of the chassis.

Step 2

Ensure that the negative and positive leads are disconnected from the site power source.

Step 3

Using a wire stripper, strip approximately 0.55 inch (1.39 cm) from the negative, positive, and ground lead.

Step 4

Insert the stripped end of the ground lead all the way into the ground lead receptacle on the –48 VDC input power supply, and tighten the receptacle screw using a 3.5 mm flat-blade screwdriver to a torque of 0.5 to 0.6 Nm.

Step 5

Insert the stripped end of the positive lead all the way into the positive lead receptacle and tighten the receptacle screw using the same 3.5mm flat-blade screwdriver.

Step 6

Repeat this step for the negative lead.

Note 
Ensure the entire stripped end of each lead is inserted all the way into its receptacle. If any exposed wire at the stripped end of a lead is visible after inserting the lead into its receptacle, remove the lead from the receptacle, use the wire stripper to cut the stripped end of the lead, and repeat Step 3 through Step 6.
Step 7

After tightening the receptacle screw for the ground, positive, and negative –48 VDC-input leads, use a cable tie to secure the three leads to the power supply faceplate, as shown in Cisco ASR 1002-X Router –48 VDC Power Supply Terminal Block Cable Connections. When securing the ground, positive, and negative –48 VDC-input leads to the power supply faceplate, leave a small service loop in the ground lead to ensure that the ground lead is the last lead to disconnect from the power supply if a great deal of strain is placed on all three leads, as shown in Cisco ASR 1002-X Router –48 VDC Power Supply Terminal Block Cable Connections.

Caution 

Ensure that the ground lead wire has a service loop before you tie wrap the lead wires to prevent the ground from being disconnected.

Step 8

Connect the ground, positive, and negative leads to the power source.

Step 9

Turn the branch source breaker on.

Step 10

Place the –48 VDC Standby switch in the On (|) position. The power supply LEDs light when power is supplied to the router.

What to do next

You have completed the procedure for connecting a –48 VDC power supply in the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router.

Connecting the +24 VDC Power Supply to the Router

The +24 VDC power supply uses a spring-loaded terminal block. The input terminal block requires 8 AWG multistrand wiring to support input current. Features are provided for strain relieving the input wires from the terminal block on the front panel. The recommended branch circuit breaker for the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router +24 VDC power supply is a 40 A UL-listed circuit breaker.

Before you begin, read these important notices about the +24 VDC power supply:

  • The labeling displays +27 VDC INPUT. This labeling describes the nominal voltage provided at a cell site.
  • Observe the polarity location. Unlike the polarity labels of the –48 VDC power supply (ground, positive, and negative), the polarity labels on the +24 VDC are ground, negative, and positive, as shown in +24 VDC Power Supply for the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router Components from right to left as they appear on the actual power supply unit.
  • The ground (GND) lead is always installed first and removed last.
  • The +24 VDC power supply uses a spring-loaded terminal block; therefore, have the recommended screwdriver size available.
  • Review the diagrams to see how the wire is stripped and how the screwdriver is inserted at an angle into the terminal block.
  • Have the following equipment available to install and remove the +24 VDC power supply:
    • Phoenix Contact 3.5 mm flat-blade screwdriver or equivalent
    • Wire-stripping tool for stripping 8-gauge wire

Note
Color coding of the +24 VDC input power supply leads depends on the color coding of the +24 VDC power source at your site. Typically, green or green/yellow is used for ground. Ensure the lead color coding you choose for the +24 VDC input power supply matches the lead color coding used at the +24 VDC power source. The most commonly used wire color-coding is red for the positive (+) lead and black for the negative (–) lead.

DANGER

When you install the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last. Statement 1046

To connect the +24 VDC power supply in the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router, follow these steps:

What to do next

This completes the steps for installing the +24 VDC power supply in the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router.

Connecting a Terminal to the Console Port

The integrated route processor has an asynchronous serial (EIA/TIA-232) RJ-45 console port labeled CON on its front panel. You can connect this port to most types of video terminals using the console cable kit that is included with your Cisco ASR 1002-X Router. The console cable kit contains:

  • One RJ-45-to-RJ-45 crossover cable

  • One RJ-45-to-DB-9 (female) adapter

A crossover cable reverses pin connections from one end to the other. In other words, it connects pin 1 (at one end) to pin 8 (at the other end), pin 2 to pin 7, pin 3 to pin 6, and so on. You can identify a crossover cable by comparing the two modular ends of the cable. Hold the cable ends in your hand, side-by-side, with the tabs at the back. Ensure that the wire connected to the outside (left) pin of the left plug (pin 1) is the same color as the wire connected to the outside (right) pin of the right plug (pin 8).

Use the following procedure to connect a video terminal to the console port on a route processor.


Note
Each Cisco ASR 1000 Series Route Processor 1 must have a console port connection (typically to a terminal server) if you are running a redundant configuration in the chassis.

Perform the following procedure to connect a terminal to a console port:
