Chapter 1 Cisco 7600 Product Overview

Port Addresses

Each port (or interface) in the Cisco 7600 series router has several different types of addresses. The physical interface address is the actual physical location (slot and port) of the interface connector within the chassis. The system software uses the physical addresses to control activity within the router and to display status information. These physical slot and port addresses are not used by other devices in the network; they are specific to the individual router and its internal components and software. For more information, see the

The Media Access Control (MAC) address is a standardized data link layer address that is required for every port or device that connects to a network. Other devices in the network use MAC addresses to locate specific ports in the network and to create and update routing tables and data structures. Routers use a unique method, described in the MAC addresses of their interfaces.

Physical Interface Addresses

Physical port addresses specify the actual physical location of each port on every module in the router, as shown in example, 1/1, 1/2, 2/1, 2/2, and so on):

• Slot—Identifies the slot in which the module is installed. Depending on the router layout, the slots

are numbered from top to bottom or right to left starting with

Figure 1-1. The port address is a two-part number in the format slot/port number (for

“Physical Interface Addresses” section on page 1-5.

1 (1/n, 2/n, and so on).

–

On horizontal-oriented chassis (such as the Cisco 7606 and Cisco 7613 routers), slots are numbered from top to bottom.

–

On vertical-oriented chassis (such as the Cisco 7609 router), slots are numbered from right to left.

• Port nu m b e r—Identifies the physical port number on the module. Port numbers always begin at 1

(n/1, n/2, and so on).

–

On horizontal-oriented modules, ports are numbered from left to right.

–

On vertical-oriented modules, ports are numbered from top to bottom.

Chapter 1 Cisco 7600 Product Overview

The supervisor engine and route switch processor have two or more uplink ports (numbered n/1, n/2, and so on). The Supervisor Engine 32 (WS-SUP32-GE-3B) has nine uplink ports, numbered n/1 to n/9.

In some cases, a single port supports two different types of connectors (for example, Port 2 on the Supervisor Engine 720 supports a Gigabit Ethernet SFP module or a 10/100/1000-Mbps RJ-45 connector). However, only one of the two options can be active at a time.

MAC Addresses

All network interface connections (ports) require a unique MAC address. The MAC address of an interface is stored in electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM) on a component that resides directly on the interface circuitry. The router system code reads the EEPROM for each interface in the system, learns the MAC addresses, and then initializes appropriate hardware and data structures. Each VLAN in the spanning tree has one unique MAC address. This addressing scheme enables the router to identify the state (connected or not connected) of each interface. When you hot swap a module, the MAC address changes with the module.

Overview

Chapter 2 Route Switch Processors and Supervisor Engines

The supervisor engine or route switch processor (RSP) is a module that is installed in one of the card slots in the router. The supervisor engine or RSP provides switching and local and remote management for the router and also contains the uplink ports for the router. Both types of modules (supervisor engine and RSP) perform the same functions in the router.

Cisco 7600 series routers support the following types of RSPs and supervisor engines:

• Route Switch Processor 720—Supported on all chassis (including enhanced) except the Cisco 7603

router and the Cisco OSR-7609. Available in Cisco

• RSP720-10GE (with 10GE uplink ports)—Supported on the Cisco 7604 and 7609 routers and

the

Cisco 7603-S, 7606-S, and 7609-S routers (enhanced chassis). Available in Cisco IOS

Release

• Supervisor Engine 720—Supported on all Cisco 7600 series routers.

• Supervisor Engine 32—Supported on all but the Cisco 7603 router.

• Supervisor Engine 2—Supported on all but the Cisco 7613 router. The Supervisor Engine 2 is no

longer supported in Cisco

12.2SRC and later releases.

IOS Release 12.2SRA and later releases.

IOS Release 12.2SRB and later releases.

Although the router can operate with a single supervisor engine or RSP, you can also install a second redundant module (of the same type) in the chassis. Only one module is active at a time. The second module acts as a “standby,” serving as a backup if the active module fails.

Note If the system does not include a redundant supervisor engine or RSP, you can install another type of

module in the slot reserved for the redundant supervisor engine or RSP.

The supervisor engine or RSP contains the following integrated daughter cards that perform forwarding and routing and provide the protocols supported on the router. Several configurations of daughter cards are supported (as shown in

• Policy Feature Card (PFC) is the forwarding plane and does the following:

–

Performs Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding.

–

Enforces access control list (ACL) functions.

–

Performs policing and marking for quality of service (QoS) traffic.

–

Collects Netflow statistics.

Note A high-capacity (XL) PFC is also available. The XL version (PFC3BXL or PFC3CXL)

Tabl e 2-1).

provides more memory for more routing table and netflow cache capacity than a PFC. It

allows routing and forwarding processes to be offloaded from the supervisor engine or

RSP to the PFC, thus increasing the performance of the supervisor engine or RSP.

2-2

• Multilayer Switch Feature Card (MSFC) is the control plane and does the following:

–

Performs routing for the chassis. The MSFC contains the route processor (RP) and switch

processor (SP) for the router.

–

Runs Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols, such as the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and others. For

information about supported protocols, see the Cisco 7600 Series Router Cisco IOS Software

Configuration Guide and the release notes for the software version running on the router.

RSP720 with 10GE Uplink Ports

Cisco IOS Release 12.2SRC introduces a new RSP720 with 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GE) uplink ports (RSP720-10GE). The Cisco daughter cards: an MSFC4 and a PFC. The RSP720-10GE has an integrated switch fabric that interconnects all of the line cards in the router with point-to-point 20-Gbps full-duplex serial channels.

Two versions of the RSP720-10GE module are available:

• RSP720-3C-10GE

• RSP720-3CXL-10GE

Because of physical differences between the RSP720 and RSP720-10GE (such as the CPU memory map and ASIC operation), there are several configuration guidelines and restrictions you should be aware of. See the

“RSP720-10GE Usage Guidelines and Limitations” section on page 2-10 for details.

Following are the total power requirements for the RSP720-10GE:

• RSP720-3C-10GE = 355 watts (total power)

• RSP720-3CXL-10GE = 378 watts (total power)

Figure 2-2 shows the RSP720-3C-10GE front panel. The RSP720-3CXL-10GE front panel is similar.

See Ta bl e 2-2 and Table 2-3 for information about the front-panel controls and LEDs.

RSP720-10GE Features

The RSP720-10GE provides all of the features of the RSP720 and also provides the following benefits:

• The RSP720-10GE has two 10GE uplink ports and three 1GE uplink ports. You can use the 10GE

ports as high-bandwidth uplinks and save chassis slots for high-density interfaces, such as a SIP/SPA. This is especially useful in smaller chassis and in redundant configurations. For the three 1GE uplink ports, two ports support 1-Gbps SFP modules and one port supports a 10/100/1000-Mbps RJ-45 connector.

• The RSP720-10GE supports the following line rates for uplink traffic and backplane forwarding:

Cisco 7600 Series Router Supervisor Engine and Route Switch Processor Guide

OL-10100-04

Chapter 2 Route Switch Processors and Supervisor Engines

–

10 gigabits per second (Gbps) on both 10GE ports

–

1 Gbps on all three 1GE ports

–

16 Gbps backplane forwarding

When all five uplink ports are operational, the total bandwidth for uplink traffic is 20 Gbps (20 GE).

• The RSP720-10GE provides flexible memory options like the RSP720. The RSP720-10GE ships

with 2-GB memory on the route processor (RP) and 1-GB memory on the switch processor (SP). Memory options are available to upgrade to 4-GB memory on the RP and 2-GB memory on the SP.

• The RSP720-10GE supports Route Processor Redundancy (RPR) mode. However, uplink ports on

the standby supervisor will be unusable.

See the “RSP720-10GE Usage Guidelines and Limitations” section on page 2-10 for information about things to consider when you use the RSP720-10GE.

Supported Chassis, Line Cards, and Modules

The RSP720-10GE supports the following chassis and modules:

• Supported on the Cisco 7604 and 7609 chassis and the Cisco 7603-S, 7606-S, and 7609-S chassis

RSP720 with 10GE Uplink Ports

Note If you insert an RSP720-10GE into an unsupported chassis, the RSP720-10GE drops to

ROMmon and only the console is accessible.

• SPA interface processors (SIPs) and their shared port adapters (SPAs): 7600-SIP-600,

7600-SIP-400, and 7600-SIP-200

• Enhanced FlexWAN module (WS-X6582-2PA)

• Ethernet services modules: 2-port 10 GE line card (7600-ESM-2X10GE) and 20-port 1 GE line card

(7600-ESM-20X1GE)

• Distributed Forwarding Cards: DFC3C, DFC3CXL, DFC3B, DFC3BXL

• LAN cards (which require CFC or DFC): WS-X6704-10GE, WS-X6724-SFP, WS-X6748-SFP,

WS-X6748-GE-TX, WS-X6708A-10GE, WS-X67xxA series, WS-X6148-FE-SFP, WS-X6148A-GE-TX

• Uplink port transceiver modules: see Appendix B, “Cable and Connector Specifications”

Note The RSP720-10GE also supports two new 8-port 10GE line cards (WS-X6708-10G-3C and

WS-X6708-10G-3CXL). The line cards, which provide 2-to-1 oversubscription, are available in Cisco IOS Release 12.2SRC and later.

Unsupported Chassis and Modules

The RSP720-10GE does not support the following chassis and modules:

OL-10100-04

• Unsupported chassis: Cisco 7603, 7606, and 7613 chassis

• Unsupported modules: Services modules, Optical Service Modules (OSMs), FlexWAN module

Unsupported Features

In Cisco IOS Release 12.2SRC, the RSP720-10GE does not support the following features, which are supported on the RSP720:

Cisco 7600 Series Router Supervisor Engine and Route Switch Processor Guide

2-9

RSP720 with 10GE Uplink Ports

• High-availability features such as NonStop Forwarding with Stateful Switchover (NSF/SSO) and

In-Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) are not supported. Only Route Processor Redundancy (RPR) mode is supported.

• The uplinks on the standby RSP720-10GE are not active. This restriction exists because the uplink

ports must perform lookups on the active RSP, which is not possible in RPR mode.

• Intelligent Service Gateway is not supported.

• Device authentication to prevent counterfeiting

• Keystore controller for key authentication

• Virtual switch functionality

RSP720-10GE Usage Guidelines and Limitations

Observe the following guidelines when using the RSP720-10GE:

• The RSP720-10GE runs the same Cisco IOS software images as the RSP720. The following

software image feature sets are available for the RSP720-10GE: ipservices, ipservicesk9, advipservices, advipservicesk9, and adventerprisek9.

• Line cards require new firmware to operate with the RSP720-10GE. If a line card does not have the

correct firmware, an error message is displayed on boot-up and the line card is powered off.

Chapter 2 Route Switch Processors and Supervisor Engines

• The RSP720-10GE uses new ROMMON software for both the SP and RP. Because the

RSP720-10GE and RSP720 use a different IO memory map, the RSPs cannot share the same ROMMON software.

–

• You can configure the RSP720-10GE to run QoS features on all uplink ports (10GE and 1GE) or on

10GE ports only. A new CLI command (mls qos supervisor 10g-only) is available to configure the module to run QoS features on 10GE ports only. QoS operates differently in each mode. See the

“QoS on the RSP720-10GE” section on page 2-10 for more information.

QoS on the RSP720-10GE

The RSP720-10GE has both 10GE and 1GE uplink ports. You can configure the RSP720-10GE to run QoS features on all uplink ports (mixed mode) or on 10GE ports only. The number of queues available for QoS depends on which mode is used:

• In mixed mode (10GE and 1GE ports), the default, only four queues are available for QoS.

The QoS port architecture for 1GE ports is (Rx/Tx): 2q8t/1p3q8t.

If you attempt to load RSP720 ROMMON software onto the RSP720-10GE, the RSP720-10GE does not power up and the ROMMON banner is not displayed.

If you load RSP720-10GE ROMMON software onto the RSP720, Cisco IOS software boots up but the software detects a mismatch and enters ROMMON mode.

2-10

Cisco 7600 Series Router Supervisor Engine and Route Switch Processor Guide

OL-10100-04

Chapter 2 Route Switch Processors and Supervisor Engines

• In 10GE only mode, eight queues are available for QoS. Use the mls qos supervisor 10g-only

command to enable 10GE only mode.

The QoS port architecture for 10GE only mode is as follows (Rx/Tx):

–

8q8t/1p7q8t (CoS)

–

16q8t/1p15q8t (DSCP)

–

16q1t/1p15q1t (VLAN)

QoS Configuration Guidelines

As you configure QoS on the RSP720-10GE, consider the following:

• When you switch between mixed-mode QoS and 10GE only mode, any existing QoS configuration

on the uplinks is lost. You must reconfigure QoS.

• While transitioning between modes, service will be temporarily lost on the uplinks.

• You can manually shut down all three 1GE ports before issuing the mls qos supervisor 10g-only

command to switch to 10GE only mode. If you do not shut down the ports first, the mls qos supervisor 10g-only command shuts down the ports.

RSP720 with 10GE Uplink Ports

• When you switch from 10GE10GE only to mixed-mode QoS, you must issue the no shutdown

• In 10GE only mode, the 1GE ports are visible but they remain in an administratively down state.

Configuring 10GE Only QoS

Cisco IOS Release 12.2SRC introduces a new command to enable QoS features on 10GE uplink ports only. By default, the router runs in mixed mode, which means that QoS is enabled on both the 10GE uplink ports and the 1GE uplink ports.

Note You can shut down all three 1GE uplink ports before entering the mls qos supervisor 10g-only

command. If you do not shut down the ports first, the mls qos supervisor 10g-only command shuts down the ports.

Preparing for Installation or Removal

Safety Precautions for Module Installation and Removal

Be sure to observe the following warnings and safety precautions when you work on the router.

Warning

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

Hazardous network voltages are present in WAN ports regardless of whether power to the unit is OFF or ON. To avoid electric shock, use caution when working near WAN ports. When detaching cables, detach the end away from the unit first.

Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments.

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

Statement 1034

Statement 1026

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. The supervisor engine or route switch processor consists of printed circuit boards that are fixed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the boards from ESD, use a preventive antistatic strap during handling.

Statement 1051

3-2

To prevent ESD damage, follow these guidelines whenever you handle supervisor engine or RSP modules and router components:

• Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.

• Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.

• When installing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to

properly seat the bus connectors in the backplane or midplane. These devices prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.

• When removing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to

release the bus connectors from the backplane or midplane.

• Handle components by their handles or edges only; do not touch the printed circuit boards or

connectors.

• Place a removed component board-side-up on an antistatic surface or in a static-shielding container.

If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding container.

Cisco 7600 Series Router Supervisor Engine and Route Switch Processor Guide

OL-10100-04

Chapter 3 Installing and Configuring Route Switch Processors and Supervisor Engines

• Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects

components from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

• Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.

Caution Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be within the

range of 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).

Tools Required for Module Installation

These tools are required to install modules in the Cisco 7600 series router:

• Flat-blade screwdriver

• Antistatic wrist strap or other grounding device

• Antistatic mat or antistatic foam

Installing a Supervisor Engine or Route Switch Processor

To install a supervisor engine or route switch processor module in the router, perform the following steps:

Caution To prevent ESD damage, handle modules by the carrier edges only.

Step 1 Choose a slot for the module (see Ta b l e 3-1). Make sure that there is enough clearance to accommodate

any equipment that will be connected to the ports on the module. If possible, place modules between empty slots that contain only blank module filler plates.

a. If a blank module filler plate is installed in the slot in which you plan to install the module, remove

the plate by removing its two Phillips pan-head screws.

b. If another module is installed in the slot, remove the module by following the procedure in the

“Removing a Supervisor Engine or Route Switch Processor” section on page 3-7.

Step 2 Verify that the captive installation screws are tightened on all of the modules installed in the chassis.

This step ensures that the EMI gaskets on all modules are fully compressed in order to maximize the opening space for the new or replacement module.

Note If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI gaskets on the installed modules will push

adjacent modules toward the open slot, which reduces the opening size and makes it difficult to install the new module.

Step 3 Fully open both ejector levers on the new module. (See Figure 3-1.)

Note Failure to fully seat the module in the backplane connector can result in error messages.

Step 8 Tighten the two captive installation screws on the module.

Note Make sure the ejector levers are fully closed before tightening the captive installation screws.

Note Blank module filler plates (Cisco part number 800-00292-01) should be installed in any empty chassis

slots to keep dust out of the chassis and to maintain consistent airflow through the chassis.

Removing a Supervisor Engine or Route Switch Processor

Before you remove a supervisor engine or route switch processor (RSP) from the router, you should first save the current configuration using the write {host file | network | terminal} command. This step 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 or RSP.

If the module is running Cisco IOS software, save the current running configuration by entering the

copy

running-config startup-config command.

Warning

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

Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments.

Statement 1034

Statement 1051

To remove a supervisor engine or RSP, perform these steps:

Step 1 Disconnect any cables attached to ports on the module.

Step 2 Verify that the captive installation screws on all of the modules in the chassis are tight. This step assures

that the space created by the removed module is maintained.

Note If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI gaskets on the installed modules will push

the modules toward the open slot, which reduces the opening size and makes it difficult to remove the module.

Step 3 Loosen the two captive installation screws on the module you plan to remove from the chassis.

Step 4 Place your thumbs on the ejector levers (see Figure 3-1) and simultaneously rotate the ejector levers

outward to unseat the module from the backplane connector.

Step 5 Grasp the front edge of the module and slide the module straight out of the slot. If the chassis has

horizontal slots, place your hand under the module to support its weight as you slide it out from the slot. Do not touch the module circuitry.

OL-10100-04

Caution To prevent ESD damage, handle modules by the carrier edges only.

Step 6 Place the module on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam, or immediately reinstall the module in another slot.

Step 7 Install blank module filler plates (Cisco part number 800-00292-01) in any empty slots to keep dust out

of the chassis and to maintain consistent airflow through the chassis.

Hot Swapping (OIR) Modules

Cisco 7600 series routers provide a feature that allows you to remove and replace a redundant supervisor router. This feature, called hot swapping or online insertion and removal (OIR), allows you to remove and replace a redundant module without disrupting router operation.

When two redundant modules are installed in the router, only one of the modules is active at a time. The other one runs in standby mode, ready to take over processing if the active module fails.

When you remove or insert a redundant module while the router is powered on and running, the router does the following:

1. Determines if there is sufficient power for the module.

2. Scans the backplane for configuration changes.

3. Initializes the newly inserted module. In addition, the system notes any removed modules and places

4. Places any previously configured interfaces on the module back to the state they were in when they

were removed. Any newly inserted interfaces are put in the administratively shutdown state, as if they were present (but unconfigured) at boot time. If you insert the same type of module into a slot, its ports are configured and brought online up to the port count of the original module.

The router runs diagnostic tests on any new interfaces and the test results indicate the following:

• If the tests pass, the router is operating normally.

• If the new module is faulty, the router resumes normal operation but leaves the new interfaces

disabled.

• If the diagnostic tests fail, the router stops operating, which usually indicates that the new module

has a problem in the bus and should be removed.

Caution To avoid erroneous failure messages, note the current configuration of all interfaces before you remove

or replace another module, and allow at least 15 been removed or replaced.

Removing and Replacing Memory

The multilayer switch feature card (MSFC4) on the RSP720 supports several configurable options for dynamic random-access memory (DRAM). The router uses this memory to store routing tables, protocols, and network accounting applications. The DRAM resides on four dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs), which you can remove and replace in order to upgrade the module with more memory or to replace failed memory.

Note If you are replacing DRAM on an existing MSFC4, upload your current configuration file to a remote

server before you remove the memory. Otherwise, you will have to re-enter all your current configuration information manually after you replace the memory.

Using Flash Memory Cards

Installing a Flash Memory Card

To install a flash memory card, follow these steps:

Step 1 Hold the memory card with the connector end of the card toward the slot. The connector end of the card is

opposite the end with the write-protection switch (if there is one), which is shown in

Step 2 Slide the card into the slot until the device completely seats in the connector at the back of the slot and

the ejector button pops out toward you.

Caution Do not attempt to force the memory card fully into the slot or you could damage the connector pins.

When correctly inserted, a portion of the device remains outside the slot.

Step 3 Format the memory card the first time that it is installed in the system.

Note Be sure to format the memory card with the type of supervisor engine or route switch processor that the

card is being used with. A memory card formatted for one type of supervisor engine or route switch processor may not work with another type.

Determining Software Feature Support

This section describes the Feature Navigator and Software Advisor tools. You can use these tools to determine which features are supported on the router and the minimum Cisco IOS software requirements for the hardware installed on your router.

Note You must have an account on Cisco.com to access the Feature Navigator or Software Advisor tool.

• To determine which software features are supported by your route switch processor or supervisor

engine, use the Feature Navigator tool at the following URL:

http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/CFN/jsp/index.jsp

• To check the minimum Cisco IOS software requirements for the hardware installed on your router,

use the Software Advisor tool at the following URL:

http://www.cisco.com/public/support/tac/tools.shtml

This tool does not verify whether the line cards in a system are compatible, but it does provide the minimum Cisco IOS requirements for individual line cards, modules, or options.

• Console Port Cabling Specifications and Pinouts, page B-6

• RJ-45 Connector, page B-10

• Fiber-Optic Connectors, page B-12

• LX/LH GBIC and MMF Cable Considerations, page B-16

Limiting Connection Distances

APPENDIX

The length of your networks and the distances between connections depend on the type of signal, the signal speed, and the transmission media (the type of cabling used to transmit the signals). For example, fiber-optic cable has a greater channel capacity than twisted-pair cabling. The distance and rate limits in this appendix are the IEEE-recommended maximum speeds and distances for signaling. You can get good results with rates and distances greater than those described here, although you do so at your own risk. You need to be aware of the electrical problems that may arise and compensate for them.

1. Multimode fiber (MMF) only.

2. A mode-conditioning patch cord is required when using the GLC-LH-SM module with 62.5-micron diameter MMF for link distances greater than 984 ft (300 m). In addition, we do not recommend using the GLC-LH-SM module and MMF without a patch cord for very short link distances (tens of meters) because it may result in an elevated bit error rate (BER).

Install the patch cord between the module and the MMF cable on both the transmit and receive ends of the link. For more information about the patch cord, see the “Mode-Conditioning Patch Cord Description” section of the document at the following URL:

Identifying a Rollover Cable

You can identify a rollover cable by comparing the two ends of the cable. Holding the cables side-by-side, with the tab at the back, the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the left plug should be the same color as the wire connected to the pin on the outside of the right plug. (See you purchased your cable from Cisco Systems, pin 1 is white on one connector, and pin 8 is white on the other (a rollover cable reverses pins 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3 and 6, and 4 and 5).

RJ-45 Connector

The RJ-45 connector is used to connect a Category 3, Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 FTP from the external network to the module interface connector. (See pinouts and signal names for a 10/100BASE-T crossover (MDI-X) cable. Figure B-3 shows a schematic of the 10/100BASE-T crossover cable. Tabl e B-13 lists the connector pinouts and signal names for a 1000BASE-T crossover (MDI-X) cable. Figure B-4 shows a schematic of the 1000BASE-T crossover cable.

Caution Category 5e and Category 6 cables can store high levels of static electricity because of the dielectric

properties of the materials used in their construction. Always ground the cables (especially in new cable runs) to a suitable and safe earth ground before connecting them to the module.

Caution To comply with Telcordia GR-1089 intrabuilding, lightning-immunity requirements, you must use

foil-twisted pair (FTP) cable that is properly grounded at both ends.

Inline power for IP phones uses connector pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 in a Category 5, Category 5e, or Category 6 cable to transmit power (6.3 phantom power because the IP phone power travels over the same pairs of wires used to transmit the Ethernet signals. The IP phone voltage is completely transparent to the Ethernet signals and does not interfere with their operation.

Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments.

Statement 1051

The SC single-mode fiber connector is used to connect fiber-optic module ports with the external network.

(See Figure B-5.)

Appendix B Cable and Connector Specifications

Figure B-5 SC Optical Connector

Always make sure that you insert the connector completely into the socket. This action is especially important when you are making a connection between a module and a long distance (1.24 miles [2

kilometers]) or a suspected highly attenuated network. If the LINK LED on the supervisor engine or route switch processor does not light, try removing the network cable plug and reinserting it firmly into the module socket. It is possible that enough dirt or skin oils have accumulated on the plug faceplate (around the optical-fiber openings) to generate significant attenuation, reducing the optical power levels below threshold levels so that a link cannot be made.

Caution Use extreme care when removing or installing connectors so that you do not damage the connector housing

or scratch the end-face surface of the fiber. Always install protective covers on unused or disconnected components to prevent contamination. Always clean fiber connectors before installing them.

MT-RJ Connectors

Warning

Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments.

The MT-RJ style connector is used on fiber-optic modules to increase port density. (See Figure B-6.)

Figure B-6 MT-RJ Optical Connector

When you are connecting MT-RJ cables to a module, make sure you firmly press the connector plug into the socket. The upper edge of the plug must snap into the upper front edge of the socket. You may or may not hear an audible click. Gently pull on the plug to confirm whether or not the plug is locked into the socket. To disconnect the plug from the socket, press down on the raised portion on top of the plug (releasing the latch). You should hear an audible click indicating that the latch has released. Carefully pull the plug out of the socket.

When you disconnect the fiber-optic cable from the module, grip the body of the connector. Do not grip the connector jacket-sleeve. Gripping the sleeve can, over time, compromise the integrity of the fiber-optic cable termination in the MT-RJ connector.

LC Connectors

Caution Use extreme care when removing or installing connectors so that you do not damage the connector housing

The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) tranceiver modules used on the Supervisor Engine 720, Route Switch Processor 720, and RSP720-10GE uplink ports use either MT-RJ connectors or LC connectors depending on the SFP module vendor.

Appendix B Cable and Connector Specifications

Cleaning the Fiber-Optic Connectors

Fiber-optic connectors are used to connect two fibers together. When these connectors are used in a communications system, proper connection is critical.

Fiber-optic connectors differ from electrical connectors or microwave connectors. In a fiber-optic system, light is transmitted through an extremely small fiber core. Because fiber cores are often 62.5 microns or less in diameter in multimode fiber (MMF) and 8.3 to 10 dust particles and any contamination on the face of the fiber core can degrade the performance of the connector interface where the two cores meet. The connector must be precisely aligned, and the connector interface must be absolutely free of trapped contaminants.

Caution Use extreme care when removing or installing connectors so that you do not damage the connector housing

or scratch the end-face surface of the fiber. Always install protective covers on unused or disconnected components to prevent contamination. Always clean fiber connectors before installing them.

To clean the fiber-optic connectors, use a CLETOP cassette cleaner (type A for SC connectors or type B for MT-RJ connectors) and follow the product instructions. If a CLETOP cassette cleaner is not available, follow these steps:

Fiber-Optic Connectors

microns in single-mode fiber (SMF),

Step 1 Gently wipe the ferrules and end-face surfaces of the connector with an alcohol pad. Be sure that the pad

makes full contact with the end-face surfaces. Wait five seconds for the surfaces to dry and repeat.

Step 2 Blow dry the connectors with canned, dry, oil-free, compressed air.

Step 3 Use a magnifying glass or inspection microscope to inspect the ferrule. If contaminants are visible,

repeat the cleaning procedure.

The connectors used inside the system have been cleaned by the manufacturer and connected to the adapters in the proper manner. The operation of the system should be error-free if the customer provides clean connectors on the application side, follows the previous directions, and follows the listed guidelines:

• Clean the connectors using lens tissues before connecting to the adapters. Use pure alcohol to

remove contamination.

• Do not clean the inside of the connector adapters.

• Do not use force or quick movements when connecting the fiber-optic connectors in the adapters.

• Cover the connector adapters to avoid contaminating the inside of the adapters while cleaning the

chassis.

• Cover the connectors and adapters to prevent the inside of the adapters or the surface of the

connectors from getting dirty when not using the connectors.

OL-10100-04

Note If the surface of the fiber-optic connector is not clean or does not have an even shine, repeat the process

using a fresh surface of the alcohol pad.

LX/LH GBIC and MMF Cable Considerations

The following sections describe the things you should consider if you are using a Supervisor Engine 2 with a long wavelength/long haul (LX/LH) GBIC with 62.5-micron diameter MMF cable.

Patch Cord

When using the long wavelength/long haul (LX/LH) GBIC with 62.5-micron diameter MMF on links that span more than 984 the patch cord (Cisco product cable on both the transmit and receive ends of the link.

Note We also recommend using a patch cord between the LX/LH GBIC and MMF cable for very short link

distances (10 to 100 meters). Without a patch cord, the link can have an elevated bit error rate (BER).

feet (300 meters), a mode-conditioning patch cord is required. You must install

number CAB-GELX-625 or equivalent) between the GBIC and the MMF

Note The patch cord is required to comply with IEEE standards. The IEEE found that link distances could not

be met with certain types of fiber-optic cable due to a problem in the center of some fiber-optic cable cores. The solution is to launch light from the laser at a precise offset from the center by using the mode-conditioning patch cord. At the output end of the patch cord, the LX/LH GBIC complies with the IEEE 802.3z standard for 1000BASE-LX.
