Catalyst 6500 Series PFC3B and PFC3BXL

Installation Note

Product number: WS-F6K-PFC3B=, WS-F6K-PFC3BXL=

This publication describes how to install the Catalyst 6500 Series Policy Feature Card 3B (PFC3B) or PFC3BXL on a Supervisor Engine 720.

Note To use the PFC3BXL, you must also upgrade the switch processor (SP) and route processor (RP) memory on the Supervisor Engine 720 to 1 GB each using the included DRAM DIMMs. For information on upgrading the memory on the Supervisor Engine 720, refer to the Supervisor Engine 720 Switch Processor and Route Processor Memory Installation Note at this URL:

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/cat6000/cfgnotes/78_15538.htm

The Supervisor Engine 720 memory upgrade (MEM-MSFC2-1GB=) is an option when using the PFC3B.

Safety Overview

Safety warnings appear throughout this publication in procedures that, if performed incorrectly, may harm you. A warning symbol precedes each warning statement.

Warning IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.

Statement 1030

Warning Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution when servicing. Statement 1034

Parts List

Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place. Statement 1029

Warning This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas. A restricted access area can be accessed only through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security.

Statement 1017

Parts List

Required Tools

Note In this section, the term "PFC3B" refers to the PFC3B and PFC3BXL unless otherwise noted.

These tools are required to perform the installation of the PFC3B:

Antistatic mat or foam pad to support the removed Supervisor Engine 720

3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver for the captive installation screws on the Supervisor Engine 720

Number 1 Phillips screwdriver for the screws and cap nut that fasten the PFC3B to the Supervisor Engine 720

Installation Guidelines

Installation Guidelines

Follow these guidelines when installing a PFC3B or PFC3BXL on a Supervisor Engine 720:

If you have redundant Supervisor Engine 720s, the hardware on both supervisor engines must be identical. You cannot have a mix of PFC3A, PFC3B, or PFC3BXL in the same chassis. You must shut down the switch to install the PFC3B or PFC3BXL, even if you have redundant supervisor engines.

If you have redundant Supervisor Engine 720s, you must install the PFC3B or PFC3BXL on each Supervisor Engine 720.

Observe the following cautions:

Caution

Always use an ESD wrist strap when handling modules or coming into contact with internal components.

Use care not to damage the connectors on the supervisor engine. If you damage a connector, you will have to return the supervisor engine to Cisco for repair.

Ensure that the PFC3B or PFC3BXL is securely seated before you install and tighten the cap nut and the securing screws. If you use the screws to seat the PFC3B or PFC3BXL, the card might warp.

You must install all screws. The screws provide grounding between the PFC3B or PFC3BXL and the supervisor engine. Failure to install all screws will invalidate the safety approvals and can cause fire and electrical hazards.

The hardware on both supervisor engines in a single chassis must be identical. If you have redundant supervisor engines, you must install a PFC3B or PFC3BXL on each Supervisor Engine 720.

Preparing the Supervisor Engine 720

Preparing the Supervisor Engine 720

Note In this section, the term "PFC3B" refers to the PFC3B and PFC3BXL unless otherwise noted.

To install the PFC3B on a Supervisor Engine 720, you must shut down the switch, remove the Supervisor Engine 720 from the chassis, and remove the PFC3A from the Supervisor Engine 720.

Caution Always use an ESD wrist strap when handling modules or coming into contact with internal components.

Before you remove a supervisor engine, you should first upload the current configuration to a server. This saves time when bringing the module back online. You can recover the configuration by downloading it from the server to the nonvolatile memory of the supervisor engine. For more information, refer to Chapter 26, “Working with Configuration Files,” in the Catalyst 6500 Series Software Configuration Guide.

To prepare the Supervisor Engine 720 for the PFC3B, follow these steps:

Step 1 Upload the current configuration to a server. On any modules running Cisco IOS software, save the running configuration.

Step 2 Shut down the switch.

Step 3 Remove the Supervisor Engine 720 from the Catalyst 6500 series switch. (Refer to the Catalyst 6500 Series Switch Module Installation Guide for removal instructions.)

Step 4 Place the Supervisor Engine 720 on an antistatic mat or foam.

Removing the PFC3A from the Supervisor Engine 720

To remove the PFC3A from the Supervisor Engine 720, follow these steps:

Step 1 Remove the nine securing screws and two cap nuts. (See Figure 1.)

Note Set the removed screws and cap nuts aside. Use the supplied screws and cap nuts when securing the PFC3B or PFC3BXL to the Supervisor Engine 720.

Caution Use care not to damage the connectors on the supervisor engine. If you damage a connector, you will have to return the supervisor engine to Cisco for repair.

Step 2 Hold the right edge of the PFC3A with your right hand and the rear left corner with your left hand. (See Figure 2.) Gently lift the PFC3A with both hands simultaneously and remove the PFC3A from the Supervisor Engine 720.
