Chassis-Lifting Guidelines for the CSS 11503 and CSS 11506
The fully-conf igure d CSS 11503 weighs appr oximate ly 3 4 p oun ds. The fully-configured CSS 11506 weighs approximately 58 pounds. The chassis is not intended to be moved frequently. Before you install the CSS, ensure that your site is properly prepared; by doing so, you can avoid mov ing the chas sis later to accommodate p ower sourc es and netwo rk conn ec tions.
When lifting either the CSS 11503 or CSS 1 1506 chassis, follow these guidelines:
Two or more people ar e r equire d to lift the CSS 11506 chass is (as de scri bed
in the procedure at the end of this section). Never attempt to lift the chassis by yourself. Because of the size and weight of the chassis, use at least two people to safely lift and move it; by doing so, you can avoid causing injury or damaging the equipme nt.
When lifting a chassis, ensure that your footing is solid, and b alance the
weight of the chassis between your feet.
Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lif t.
Keep your back straight and lift the chassis with your legs, not your back. If
you must bend down to lift the chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your bac k m uscles.
If you remove t he fan asse mbl y and po wer mo dule s to light en t he cha ssi s, be
sure to provide anti-static mats or bags to protect the removed components.
Be careful wh en yo u re mov e the po wer mo dule s—t hey a r e heav y.

Chapter 1 Unpacking and Installing the CSS
Rack-Mounting the CSS 11506 Chassis
You are ready to install the CSS in the rack. Before you install the CSS 11506 into an equipment rack, note the following:
Always install heavier equipment in the lower half of a rack to maintain a low
center of grav ity. This practice helps p revent th e ra ck f rom falling over.
Install rack stabilizers (if available) before you mount the chassis.
Installing a CSS Module
Warning
At least three people are required to mount the chassis in the equipment rack: two people are needed to hold the chassis in place while a third person tightens the mounting screws.
To install the CSS 11506 chassis into an equipment rack:
1. Raise the CSS to the installation height and align the screw holes on the
mounting bracket w ith the hole s o n th e eq uipm en t ra ck.
2. Secure each mounting bracket to each side of the rack.
Installing a CSS Module
The modules that you ordered with eithe r the CSS 11503 or CSS 11506 chassis are preinstalled. If you need to reseat a module, or remove and replace it, refer to the following sections:

Installation Precautions and Restrictions
This section includes background material related to installing a module into the CSS chassis. Cisco Systems recommends that you read the topics in this section before installing a module.
Installation Precautions
Read and observe the following precautionary information prior to servicing the CSS.
Caution You must power down the CSS 11503/11506 chassis to install or remove a module.
Chapter 1 Unpacking and Installing the CSS
Warning
Warning
Do not remove or install modules without using appropriate anti-static guard measures. The CSS includes an anti-static wrist strap in the accessory kit. Attach the copper tape end of the strap to an unpainted metal surface on the chassis. You can leave the strap connected to the chassis when you are done.
If you do not power down the CSS, an electrical energy hazard is present within the chassis. Prior to installing or removing components, remove all metallic objects from hands and wrists to prevent bridging of live contact points.

Chapter 2 Cabling and Troubleshooting the CSS
Cabling the CSS 11503 and CSS 11506 Modules
CSS 11503 and CSS 11506 Module Overview
The CSS 11503 and CSS 11506 are comp act m odu lar pla tfor ms, d elivering transport and application (layers 4-7) services for Internet and Intranet data centers. A CSS is a fully-distributed architecture with all modules in the system contributing to the o vera ll pr oce ssing a nd mem ory nee ds for f low set up . Performance increases incrementally as you add modules, and the modules balance the overall traffic load.
The Cisco 11506 is a five-rack unit, supporting six-slots, with 40-Gbps
aggregate throughpu t. The CSS 11506 requires a t least o ne Switch Control Module (SCM) and may be co nfig ured w ith a secon d SCM in standby mod e for redundancy. With the required SCM in one slot, the CSS 11506 has five additional slots supporting a ny comb ination of I /O mo dules.
The Cisco 11503 is a two-rack-unit, supporting three-slots, with 20- Gbps
aggregate throughput. The CSS 11503 requires an SCM and ac commoda tes any two of the o t her m od ules.
Though all modules ex cept f or the SSL m odu le pa rticipat e in flow setup , th ey differ primarily in control functions, performa nce, and I/O. Eac h CSS 11500 module consists of one high-speed MIPS RI SC processor fo r flow-set up, one network processo r for flo w fo rw arding , one p olicy c o-p ro cessor f or sear ch operations and a maximum of 288 MB of RDRAM (up to 256 MB of usab le memory).
The CSS 11506 not only supports re dunda ncy in SCMs but a lso supp orts redundant power supplies and redundant Switch Modules (20 Gbps each). A CSS 11506 can contain a maximum of three power supplies, but it requires two functioning powe r supp lies to gu ar an tee se rv ice.

Follow these steps to verify that you have correctly connected DC power to the CSS 11503 or CSS 11506 chassis:
1. Turn on power to the DC circuit or circuits.
2. Use a voltmeter to chec k the voltage at the termin al block on the powe r
supply. Connect the voltmeter ’s positive contact to the positive (+) terminal on the CSS power supply terminal block. Connect the voltmeter’s negative contact to the negative (–) terminal on the CSS power supply terminal block. If the power is wired correctly, the voltmeter registers approximately +48VDC to +56VDC (or batter y float vo ltage).
