RODUCT INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides information about the Alcatel OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router front and back panels, LEDs, cable connection ports, and panel components.
This section describes front- and back-panel components of the Alcatel OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router. Additional information is also provided in following sections about external cables, wiring, and connection points.
The Alcatel OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 are designed to provide WAN-to-LAN networking connectivity for branch office communication and primary Internet access for medium-size businesses. The OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 are T1/E1 routers providing one, two, or four WAN ports, two 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports, an AUX port, an ISDN backup port, and a local/remote management Console port.
7
The routers may be purchased with 1 to 4 ports active. If all the WAN ports are not all activated at the time of purchase then additional ports can be activated via a software license key. Software licence keys may be purchased to activate additional WAN ports to allow scalable bandwidth as your needs grow. Contact Alcatel sales (1-818 880 3500) for more information.
In addition to the command line interface, the Model OmniAccess 600-series routers support a Web User Interface which can be used to configure basic operational and security features. For more information on the Web UI, refer to the OmniAccess 600-series Router Web User Interface User Guide.

NSTALLATION
This chapter describes how to install and prepare the Alcatel OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router for operation. Information is also provided describing the system front and back panels, operator interface, how to mount the chassis, and how to connect network and power cables.
Before you install the OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604, familiarize yourself with the network interface and power connections described in this chapter.
Before installing a Alcatel OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router, ensure that the site conditions comply with the following requirements and that the mounting equipment, tools, and cables are available at the installation site.
15

Environment

Site location is important for the proper operation of the OmniAccess 601, OmniAccess 602, and OmniAccess 604 router. Place the unit in a clean, dry environment with adequate air circulation. Allow additional clearance around the system for foot traffic and access to cable connectors on the rear panel.
Figure 7 shows the convection cooling vents on top of the unit. To prevent an over-temperature condition, which could result in system failure or performance degradation, make sure that these vents are not obstructed.
NOTE: In normal operation, the router will be “warm to the touch.”
Figure 7 Chassis Air Flow
CAUTION:
of the router and such action could lead to equipment damage.
Refer to Appendix A for more information about environmental requirements.
Do not stack routers on top of each other. Doing so will defeat the convection cooling ability
