OL-26438-01

Chapter 2 Installation Safety and Site Preparation

Safety with Electricity

Follow these guidelines when working on equipment powered by electricity:

• Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room in which you are working. If an electrical

accident occurs, you can quickly turn off the power.

• Disconnect all power before doing the following:

–

Installing or removing a chassis

–

Working near power supplies

• Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power

extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds.

• Do not work alone if hazardous conditions exist.

• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check.

• Never open the enclosure of the router’s internal power supply.

• If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:

–

Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.

Safety Recommendations

–

Turn off power to the device.

–

If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the victim’s condition and then call for help.

–

Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take appropriate action.

Warning

Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.

Statement 1001

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It can occur if electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can cause complete or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing modules:

• Ensure that the router chassis is electrically connected to earth ground.

• Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to

an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to channel unwanted ESD voltages safely to ground. To guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively.

• If no wrist strap is available, touch a metal part of the chassis to discharge any electromagnetic build

up.

OL-26438-01

Caution For the safety of your equipment, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. It should

be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).

General Site Requirements

This section describes the requirements your site must meet for safe installation and operation of your router. Ensure that the site is properly prepared before beginning installation. If you are experiencing shutdowns or unusually high errors with your existing equipment, this section can also help you isolate the cause of failures and prevent future problems.

Rack Mounting

The router is designed for mounting on a DIN rail, or a wall. Cisco recommends that the router not be rack mounted. However, if you install the router in a rack, follow these guidelines:

• Allow clearance around the rack for maintenance.

• Allow at least one rack unit of vertical space between routers.

• Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not congested, because each

router generates heat. An enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air. Heat generated by equipment near the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward into the intake ports of the equipment above.

Chapter 2 Installation Safety and Site Preparation

Router Environmental Requirements

The location of your router and the layout of the substation environment are important considerations for proper router operation. Equipment placed too close together, inadequate ventilation, and inaccessible panels can cause malfunctions and shutdowns, and can make maintenance difficult.

Install the router so that you can access both the module-side and the cable-side panels.

When planning your site layout and equipment locations, refer to General Site Requirements, page 2-4. If you are currently experiencing shutdowns or an unusually high number of errors with your existing equipment, these precautions and recommendations may help you isolate the cause of failure and prevent future problems.

• Ensure that the room where your router operates has adequate air circulation. Electrical equipment

generates heat. Without adequate air circulation, ambient air temperature may not cool equipment to acceptable operating temperatures.

• Always follow ESD-prevention procedures described in Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

Damage, page 2-3, to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge can cause

immediate or intermittent equipment failure.

• Ensure that the chassis cover and module cable side panels are secure. All empty module slots and

power supply bays must have filler panels installed.

• When equipment installed in a rack (particularly in an enclosed rack) fails, try operating the

equipment by itself, if possible. Power off other equipment in the rack (and in adjacent racks) to allow the router under test a maximum of cooling air and clean power.

Power Guidelines and Requirements

Check the power at your site to ensure that you are receiving “clean” power (free of spikes and noise). Install a power conditioner if necessary.

OL-26438-01

Chapter 2 Installation Safety and Site Preparation

The AC power supply includes the autoselect feature for either 110 V or 220 V operation.

Network Cabling Specifications

The following sections describe the cables needed to install the router:

• Preparing for Network Connections, page 2-5

Preparing for Network Connections

When setting up your router, consider distance limitations and potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) as defined by the applicable local and international regulations.

Network connection considerations are provided for several types of network interfaces and are described in the following sections:

• Ethernet Connections, page 2-5

Network Cabling Specifications

• Serial Connections, page 2-5

Ethernet Connections

The IEEE has established Ethernet as standard IEEE 802.3. The router supports the following Ethernet implementations:

• 1000BASE-X—1000 Mb/s full-duplex transmission over a Category 5 or better unshielded

• 1000BASE-T—1000 Mb/s full-duplex transmission over a Category 5 or better unshielded

• 100BASE-TX—100 Mb/s full-duplex transmission over a Category 5 or better unshielded

Serial Connections

The router supports serial connections on the serial ports. Before you connect a device to a serial port, you need to know the following:

• Type of device, data terminal equipment (DTE) or data communications equipment (DCE), you are

• Type of connector, male or female, required to connect to the device

twisted-pair (UTP) cable (IEEE 802.3z). Supports the Ethernet maximum length of 328 feet (100 meters).

twisted-pair (UTP) cable (IEEE 802.3ab). Supports the Ethernet maximum length of 328 feet (100 meters).

twisted-pair (UTP) cable (IEEE 802.3u). Supports the Ethernet maximum length of 328 feet (100 meters).

connecting to the synchronous serial interface

• Signaling standard required by the device

Configuring Serial Connections

The router serial ports user a supported cable with a DB-25 connector. Serial ports can be configured as DTE or DCE, depending on the serial cable used.

OL-26438-01

Cisco 1120 Connected Grid Router Hardware Installation Guide

Network Cabling Specifications

Serial DTE or DCE Devices

A device that communicates over a synchronous serial interface is either a DCE or DTE device. A DCE device provides a clock signal that paces the communications between the device and the router. A DTE device does not provide a clock signal. DTE devices usually connect to DCE devices. The documentation that accompanied the device should indicate whether it is a DTE or DCE device. (Some devices have a jumper to select either DTE or DCE mode.) Tab le 2-1 lists typical DTE and DCE devices.

Table 2-1 Typical DTE and DCE Devices

Device Type Gender Typical Devices

DTE Male

DCE Female

1. If pins protrude from the base of the connector, the connector is male.

2. If the connector has holes to accept pins, the connector is female.

Chapter 2 Installation Safety and Site Preparation

Termin a l

Modem

CSU/DSU

Multiplexer

Signaling Standards Supported

The synchronous serial ports available for the router support the following signaling standards: EIA/TIA-232 (EIA-323). You can order a Cisco DB-25 shielded serial transition cable that has the appropriate connector for the standard you specify. The documentation for the device should indicate the standard used for that device. The router end of the shielded serial transition cable has a DB-25 connector, which connects to the DB-25 port on the router. The other end of the serial transition cable is available with a connector appropriate for the standard you specific.

The synchronous serial port can be configured as DTE or DCE, depending on the attached cable.

All serial ports configured as DTE require external clocking from a CSU/DSU or other DCE device.

Distance Limitations

Serial signals can travel a limited distance at any given bit rate; generally, the slower the data rate, the greater the distance. All serial signals are subject to distance limits, beyond which a signal significantly degrades or is completely lost.

Table 2-2 lists the recommended maximum speeds and distances for each serial interface type; however,

you might get good results at speeds and distances greater than those listed, if you understand the electrical problems that might arise and can compensate for them. For instance, the recommended maximum rate for V.35 is 2 Mb/s, but 4 Mb/s is commonly used.

Installation Safety and Site Preparation chapter.

Connecting the Router to Power

Before you make network connections, your router should be connected to the AC power source and powered on as described in the chapter, Connecting the Router to Power.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Many of the components discussed in this chapter are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are handled improperly, which can result in complete or intermittent failures.

To prevent ESD damage, follow these guidelines:

Chapter 6 Making Network Connections

• 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.

• Place a removed memory card on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding bag. If the card will be

returned to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.

• Avoid contact between the card and clothing. The wrist strap protects the card from ESD voltages

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

• Do not remove the wrist strap until the installation is complete.

Cabling Guidelines

Follow these guidelines for using cables with the router:

• Follow the recommended Router Orientation When Mounting, page 4-3, to prevent cable strain.

• Position cables so that they do not place strain on the router connectors.

• Organize cables into bundles when necessary to avoid intertwining.

• Inspect cables to ensure adequate routing and bend radius.

• Install cable ties that comply with your site requirements.

Connecting the Alarm Port

About

The alarm port provides data about fatal or severe errors that can cause the system software to crash.

The alarm port is connected to a normally closed solid state relay. Cisco CG-OS writes to a hardware port and the relay contact opens. If the system enters into a ROM monitor (ROMmon) or watchdog reset state, the relay contacts close. The closing contacts alert the alarm annunciator or monitor that a Cisco CG-OS crash has occurred.

If interfaces fail or other non-fatal errors occur, the alarm port does not respond. Continue to use SNMP to manage these types of errors.

Connecting

• You can connect this port while the router is operating normally.

• If you use an alarm system on your network, connect the alarm port to an alarm system with an alarm

cable that you provide.
