AT-CV5001 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide
AT-CV5001AC and AT-CV5001DC Power Supply Modules
The AT-CV5001 Chassis has slots for two power supply modules. The
power requirements of the chassis and the media converter line cards can
be met with just one power supply. A second power supply can be added
for power redundancy.
If the chassis has two power modules, the modules use a load-sharing
arrangement in which they both supply power to the media converter line
cards. If one of the power supply fails, the second module automatically
assumes the role of powering the entire chassis, thus preventing any
interruption to the flow of network traffic through the line cards.
There are AC and DC power modules for the chassis. They are:
AT-CV5001AC Power Supply Module
AT-CV5001DC Power Supply Module
The chassis can have either AC or DC modules, or both AC and DC
modules.
Automatic Fan
Speed Control
The previous AT-CV5000 Chassis had left and right power supply
modules. This is not true for the power modules for the AT-CV5001
Chassis. The AT-CV5001AC and AT-CV5001DC Power Supply Modules
can be installed in either slot A or slot B in the chassis.
The chassis does not come with a power supply module. Power supply
modules must be ordered separately.
Each power supply module has a single cooling fan that draws air out of
the chassis. Air enters the device from the front through the air vents on
the faceplates on the slot covers and the media converter cards.
If the chassis has the AT-CV5M02 Management Module, the speed of the
fan is automatically adjusted according to the internal temperature of the
unit. When operating conditions permit, the speed of the fan is lowered to
lessen fan noise, reducing the chance that the unit will be an annoyance to
individuals if the device is installed in a public or work area.
The feature works by monitoring the internal temperature of the chassis. If
the temperature is below 60° C (140° F), the management card
incrementally reduces the speed of the fan over approximately 30 seconds
to a minimum speed of 2000 RPM. If the temperature exceeds 60° C, the
management card incrementally increases the fan speed over the same
time period to approximately 6000 RPM. When the temperature returns
below 60° C, the fan speed is again incrementally reduced to 2000 RPM.
21
Chapter 1: Overview
Power Supply
Alerts and
Shutdown
The power supply automatically shuts down if the internal temperature of
the chassis exceeds 70 ° C (158° F), and starts again when the
temperature returns below 65° C (149° F).
If the speed of the fan in the power supply falls below 2000 RPM or if the
fan stops completely, the management card, if present, transmits an
SNMP trap and enters a message in the event log, alerting you to the
problem.
The management card has two temperature thresholds and sends a trap
when either threshold is exceeded. One of the thresholds is adjustable
and the other is not. The adjustable threshold is set in the Temperature
Threshold Configuration menu in the management software and has a
default setting is 60° C (140° F). This is the temperature threshold at which
the management card speeds up or slows down the cooling fan in the
power supply. If this setting is left unchanged, the management card may
send a series of SNMP traps if the operating temperature hovers at that
point. To avoid this, you may want to consider raising or lowering this
setting. For instructions, refer to the Converteon AT-S73, AT-S99 and AT-S102 Management Software User’s Guide. Here is the trap for this
threshold:
Fan Tray #1/2: Fan Temperature Exceed Limit
The second temperature threshold, which is not adjustable, is 65° C (14 9°
F), five degrees below the temperature at which the power supply
automatically shuts down. This temperature threshold alerts you if the
power supply is close to shutting down because of a temperature problem.
Here is the trap for this threshold:
Temp exceeded 65 deg C in module A/B

AT-CV5000 Chassis
The AT-CV5000 Chassis is the predecessor to the AT-CV5001 Chassis.
Both chassis have nearly all the same features. For example, they both
support redundant power supplies, redundant management cards, and
Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM). They also have the
same number of slots for media converter cards. But they do have a few
differences. They are:
The AT-CV5001 Chassis features automatic fan speed control when a

Selecting a Site for the Chassis
Observe the following requirements when choosing a site for the chassis:
If you plan to install the chassis in an equipment rack, check to be sure
that the rack is safely secured and that it will not tip over. Devices in a
rack should be installed starting at the bottom, with the heavier d evices
near the bottom of the rack.
The chassis is heavy and requires three people to install it. For the
weight and dimensions of the chassis, see “Physical S pecifications” on
page 79.
If you are installing the chassis on a table, be sure that the table is
level and secure.
The power outlet for the chassis should be located near the unit and
should be easily accessible.
The site should provide easy access to the ports and connectors on
the front and the rear of the chassis, so that you can connect and
disconnect cables as well as to view the LEDs.
AT-CV5001 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide
For proper cooling of the chassis, air flow around the unit and through
its vents should be unrestricted. Allow 8 inches around the rear of the
chassis for proper airflow.
Do not place objects on top of the chassis.
Do not expose the chassis to moisture or water.
Make sure that the site is a dust-free environment.
Use dedicated power circuits or power conditioners to supply reliable
electrical power to the device.

Installing the AT-CV5M02 Management Card
This section contains the instructions for installing the AT-CV5M02
Management Card.
Warning: Remove all metal jewelry, such as rings and watches,
before installing or removing a line card from a powered-on
chassis.
Caution Be sure to observe all standard electrostatic discharge
(ESD) precautions, such as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to
avoid damaging the device. A line card can be damaged by
static electricity.
Note
The AT-CV5001 Chassis does not support the AT-CV5M01
Management Card.
E26
To install the AT-CV5M02 Management Card, perform the following
procedure:
1. Select a slot in the chassis for the management card. You can install
the card in any slot.
If you are installing a redundant management card into an existing
chassis, you should install it while the chassis is powered on. If the
chassis is powered off, you should install it in a higher numbered slot
than the existing management card. If you install a redundant
management card into a lower numbered slot than the existing card
while the chassis is powered off, the master configuration file of the
new card, which will become the active card, will overwrite the
configuration file on the existing card when you power on the
chassis. If the auto-copy settings in the new master configuration file
is enabled for the chassis slots, the configuration settings of the line
cards may change. For further information, refer to Converteon AT-S73, AT-S99, AT-S102, Management Software User’s Guide.

This section describes how to power on an AC powered AT-CV5001
Chassis.
To power on an AC powered chassis, perform the following procedure:
1. Select the power cord for your region: North America, United Kingdom,
Europe, or Australia.
2. Plug the power cord into the AC power connector on the rear of the
chassis, as shown in Figure 26.
AT-CV5001 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide
Figure 26. Connecting the AC Power Cord
3. Plug the other end of the power cord to an appropriate power outlet.
If the chassis has two AT-CV5001AC Power Supplies, repeat this
procedure to power on the second module.
Refer to “Technical Specifications” on page 79 for the power
requirements.
If the chassis has two power supplies, you can protect the unit from
a power circuit failure by connecting the two power supplies to
power sources that are operating on different power circuits.

Powered Chassis” on page 57. For information on how to install the power
supply, refer to “Installing the AT-CV5001DC Power Supply” on page 43.
Warning: As a safety precaution, install a circuit breaker with a
minimum value of 15 Amps between the equipment and the DC
power source.
Always connect the wires to the LAN equipment first before you
connect the wires to the circuit breaker. Do not work with HOT
feeds to avoid the danger of physical injury from electrical shock.
Always be sure that the circuit breaker is in the OFF position
before connecting the wires to the breaker.
AT-CV5001 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide

Warning: For centralized DC power connection, install only in a
restricted access area.
A tray cable is required to connect the power source if the unit is
powered by centralized DC power. The tray cable must be a UL
listed Type TC tray cable and rated at 600 V and 90 degrees C,
with three conductors, minimum 14 AWG.
1. Power off the DC circuit you plan to use for the chassis.
2. Use the legend next to the terminal block to identify the terminals. The
terminals are positive, power supply ground and negative, from
right to left.

6. Connect the -48 VDC feed wire to the terminal block marked - (minus).
Warning: Check to see if there are any exposed copper strands
coming from the installed wires. When this installation is done
correctly there should be no exposed copper wire strands
extending from the terminal block. Any exposed wiring can conduct harmful levels of electricity to persons touching the wires.
E12
7. Secure the tray cable near the rack framework using multiple cable ties
to minimize the chance of the connections being disturbed by casual
contact with the wiring. Use at least four cable ties, separated four
inches apart. Locate the first one within six inches of the terminal
block.
This system will work with a positive grounded or negative
grounded DC system. E13
8. Verify that the circuit breaker is in the OFF position.
9. Connect the supply-cable wires to the circuit breaker.
10. Energize the circuit breaker.
11. If you installed a second AT-CV5001DC Power Supply, repeat this
procedure.
If the chassis has two power supplies, you can protect the unit from
a power circuit failure by connecting the two power supplies to
power sources that are operating on different power circuits.
This unit might have more than one power source. To reduce the

Removing or Replacing the AT-CV5001AC Power Supply
The AT-CV5001AC Power Supply is hot-swappable. You do not have to
power off the chassis to install a second power supply or to replace a
failed power supply in a chassis that has two power supplies.
There are two power supply slots. This procedure illustrates slot A. The
procedure is the same for slot B.
The predecessor to the AT-CV5001 Chassis, the AT-CV5000
Chassis, had different power supply modules for the left and right
slots. This is not the case for the AT-CV5001AC Power Supply,
which can be installed in either power supply slot in the AT-CV5001
Chassis.
To remove or replace the AT-CV5001AC Power Supply, perform the
following procedure.
1. Disconnect the power cord from the power source.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the AT-CV5001AC Power Supply.

Troubleshooting
This chapter contains information on how to troubleshoot the power supply
modules in the event a problem occurs.
If after following the instructions in this chapter you are unable to
resolve the problem, contact Allied Telesis Technical Support for
assistance. Refer to “Contacting Allied Telesis” on page 14 for
contact information.
The operational status of a power supply module is displayed on the PS
and FAN LEDs on the AT-CV5LED Card installed in slot 19 on the front
panel. PS-A and FAN-A LEDs correspond to slot A on the back panel and
PS-B and FAN-B LEDs correspond to slot B. If a power supply is operating
normally, both the PS LED and the FAN LED will be on. If one or both of
them are off, try the following:
Verify that the module is fully seated in the power supply slot in the
chassis.
Verify that the power cord is firmly connected to the power supply
module and the power source.
Try connecting the power module to another power source, preferably
located on a different circuit.
Verify that the power source is operating properly by plugging a
different device into it.
Verify that the power from the power source meets the operating
specifications of the power supply module, listed in “Power
Specifications” on page 79.
Replace the power supply module.

The fiber optic connector consists of a fiber optic plug and its adapter. The
end of the fiber optic cable is held in the core of the ferrule in the plug.
Light signals are transmitted through the core of the fiber. Even minor
smudges or dirt on the end face of the fiber, completely invisible to the
naked eye, can disrupt light transmission and lead to failure of the
component or of the entire system. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to
clean all fiber optic connectors before use.
Figure 42 shows the ferrule in an SC connector.

Using a Cartridge-Type Cleaner
Fiber optic cartridge cleaners are available from many vendors and are
typically called “cartridge cleaners,” as shown in Figure 44.

Warning: Do not look directly at the fiber optic cable ends or
inspect the cable ends with an optical lens. E29
To clean a fiber optic connector using a cartridge cleaner.
1. With one hand, hold the cartridge cleaner and push the lever on the
cleaning cartridge in the direction of the arrow to expose the cleaning
surface, as shown in Figure 45 on page 83.
2. Place the ferrule tip on the exposed cleaning surface and rub the
ferrule in a downward direction, as shown in Figure 45.

Figure 45. Rubbing the Ferrule Tip on the Cleaning Surface
Rub the ferrule tip on the cleaning surface in one direction only.
3. When you reach the end of the cleaning surface, pick up the ferrule tip,
rotate and place it at the top and rub downwards at least 2 times.
Failing to pick up the ferrule tip when you reach the bottom of the
cleaning surface can result in static electricity that can damage the
fiber optic cable.
4. If desired, repeat steps 3 and 4.
5. If a fiber inspection scope is available, use the scope to inspect the
ferrule end face to make sure that it is clean.
6. Reconnect the cable to the port or protect the ferrule tip with a dust
cap.
Always keep a dust cap on a fiber optic cable when it is not in use.
Do not touch the end face of the ferrule in the connector.

Using a Swab
Specially treated swabs (stick cleaners) are available for cleaning inside
connector adapters or hard-to-reach ferrule tips. These swabs, often
referred to as “lint free” or “alcohol free” swabs, are available from many
vendors, as shown in Figure 46. Stick cleaners are available in both 2.5
mm and 1.25 mm sizes for use on SC and MU connectors respectively.
NEVER use a household cotton swab and/or alcohol to clean a fiber
optic connector. This may leave a residue on the ferrule tip.
