The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may
cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the
specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital
devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television
communications at your own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its
peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits
controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Definitions of Service Request Severity
To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity
definitions.
Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You
and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your
business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco
will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations
remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service
to satisfactory levels.
Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or
configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.

Cisco 10008 Router Overview
The Cisco 10008 router is a high capacity Layer 3 router optimized to support selected Cisco IOS
software services at wire speed performance on thousands of DS1/T1 connections. Designed primarily
for use in a telco central office environment, it provides interfaces that connect to large numbers of
subscribers using low-speed circuits, and then funnels all of that subscriber traffic into a small number
of high-speed trunk interfaces. The chassis has eight line card slots and two slots for Performance
Routing Engine (PRE) modules.
This chapter contains the following sections:
• Cisco 10008 Router Features, page 1-2
• Cisco 10008 Router Software, page 1-3
• Cisco 10008 Router Hardware Description, page 1-3
Note The illustrations in this guide depict the original Cisco 10008 chassis. Your chassis may look slightly
different, but it is functionally the same.
The Cisco 10008 router is designed to meet and exceed the most stringent ISP requirements for product
availability and reliability. Its features include:
• Redundant blowers
• Redundant power (AC or DC)
• Redundant PREs
• Pairs of Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) interfaces which can be configured for redundancy
using SONET 1+1 Automatic Protection Switching (APS)
• All line cards, Power Entry Modules (PEMs), and blowers can be hot-swapped without powering
down the chassis

Cisco 10008 Router Hardware Installation Guide
OL-0659-13
Chapter 1 Cisco 10008 Router Overview
Cisco 10008 Router Features
Performance routing engine redundancy in the Cisco 10008 router is achieved through an
implementation of Enhanced High System Availability (EHSA). This feature lets you configure the
chassis for non-redundant operation with one PRE, or for redundant operation with two PREs.
In addition to PRE redundancy, SONET/SDH line cards can be configured for
1+1 Automatic Protection Switching (APS) to accommodate failure of either a line card or the
transmission facility carrying trunk traffic to upstream equipment.
The Cisco 10008 router is designed to scale to unprecedented levels with plans to further increase
scalability in future releases. The current release provides support for up to:
• 1300 PPP sessions
• 4200 Frame Relay sessions
• 300 Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) peers
For CT3 line cards, this equates to:
• 1176 T1 connections per chassis or up to 3900 T1 connections per 7-foot rack.
For channelized OC-12 line cards, this equates to:
• 2352 T1 connections per chassis or up to 7056 T1 connections per 7-foot rack.

Cisco 10008 Router Software
Cisco 10008 Router Software
Software is stored on the PRE which includes two PCMCIA slots that are accessible from the front panel.
Either slot can store an Cisco IOS image or configuration file.
The flash memory present on Cisco 10000 router line cards is used to store a simple ROM monitor/boot
loader. The loader executes following a system reset, line card reset, or line card insertion.
Line card images may also be stored in PRE flash memory or on an external TFTP server.
The PRE stores the system configuration in a 512KB NVRAM device. Configuration information read
from NVRAM is buffered in RAM following initialization, and is written to the device when you save
the configuration.

Chapter 1 Cisco 10008 Router Overview
Cisco 10008 Router Hardware Description
The Cisco 10008 chassis is designed for mounting in 19-inch or (optional) 23-inch equipment racks, and
contains the following components:
• Blower Module, page 1-6
• Power Entry Modules, page 1-6
• Connector Ports, page 1-9
• PCMCIA Card Slots, page 1-10
Blower Module
The Cisco 10008 router uses a blower module (Figure 1-3) containing four fans to supply cooling air to
the chassis.
Figure 1-3 Blower Module
The blower module is located at the top of the chassis and connects to a connector on the chassis.
1. Four internal fans draw cooling air into the front of the chassis and directs it across the internal
components to maintain an acceptable operating temperature.
2. The air is exhausted through openings in the rear of the chassis.
Although the blower module supports hot-swapping and can be replaced without interruption to system
operation, do not power down the system without the blower unit for more than a few minutes to prevent
overheating.
Power Entry Modules
The DC PEM provides filtering and supplies DC power to the chassis electronics (Figure 1-4). DC PEMs
receive input power (–48 VDC from building centralized power source) through terminal block
connections located on the rear of the chassis.
Table 1- 1 describes the LEDs on the DC PEM.

Line Card and PRE Module Compartment
The module compartment has 10 slots: the two central slots are reserved for PRE modules, and the
remaining 8 slots accommodate full-height line cards. The PRE and line cards support hot-swapping and
redundancy. See Figure 1-1 for a front view of the module compartment, and Figure 1-2 for a rear view
of the module compartment, BNC connectors, and line card subslot designations.
For information about the line card that the Cisco 10008 router supports, see the Cisco 10000 Routers
Line Card Hardware Installation Guide, and for line card configuration information, see the
Cisco 10000 Series Router Line Card Configuration Guide.
Performance Routing Engine
The PRE is the central router and system controller (SC) for the Cisco 10008 router. It is responsible for
all Layer 2 and Layer 3 packet processing, as well as execution of routing protocols and management of
the system. The PRE consists of two main logical and physical cards:
• Forwarding processor card—Performs high-speed IP forwarding
• Route processor card—Manages process switching and several protocols
The high performance forwarding engine in the PRE is Cisco’s Parallel eXpress Forwarding (PXF)
application specific integrated circuit (ASIC). The two PXF ASICs on the PRE direct traffic to and from
the router line cards.

Chapter 1 Cisco 10008 Router Overview
Cisco 10008 Router Hardware Description
Each PXF ASIC has 32 independent processors that work on per-packet feature processing, yielding
high throughput while still allowing substantial feature processing. The PXF centralizes packet
processing in the PRE, which frees up space on line cards, enabling high interface density, yet retaining
a compact form factor.
Caution Although the PRE module supports hot-swapping, one PRE is required for the system to operate.
Hot-swapping a non-redundant PRE results in a system outage stopping all traffic. A PRE in a redundant
configuration can be hot-swapped without having an impact on system operation.

Connector Ports
The front panel on the PRE contains three ports with RJ-45 connectors (see Figure 1-6):
• Console port (CON)—This asynchronous EIA/TIA-232 serial port is used to connect a terminal to
the PRE for local administrative access.
• Auxiliary port (AUX)—This asynchronous EIA/TIA-232 serial port is used to connect a modem to
the PRE for remote administrative access.
• Ethernet port (ETH)—This Ethernet port is used to connect the PRE to a 10/100BASE-T network
management LAN.

Cisco 10008 Router Hardware Description
PCMCIA Card Slots
Two PCMCIA Type II card slots can store the Cisco IOS image or a system configuration file on a flash
memory card. The system can also boot from the software stored on the flash memory card. See
“Figure 5-47Removing the PCMCIA Flash Card” section on page 5-45 for more information about
inserting and removing flash cards from the PRE.
PRE LED Indicators and Switches
LEDs on the front panel of the PRE provide a visual indication showing the status of PRE operation (see
Figure 1-6). The LEDs are separated into three categories:
• alarms
• status
• failure
Alarm relay contacts on the Cisco 10008 router let you connect the router to a site alarm maintenance
system. This allows critical, major, and minor alarms generated by the Cisco 10008 router to be
displayed on both the PRE front panel and to external visual or audible alarms connected to the system.
See the “Connecting Alarm Indicators” section on page 3-26 for more information about alarm
connections.
Pressing the alarm cutoff (ACO) switch on the (primary) PRE during an alarm condition shuts off the
external alarm, but does not deactivate the alarm LEDs on the PRE front panel. Alarm LEDs on the front
panel are deactivated only after the condition that caused the alarm is corrected.

Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation
Site Planning
Cisco Professional Installation
Professional installation of the Cisco 10008 router is available through the Cisco Professional Services
group. This includes advance site planning, configuring the router to your requirements, and testing the
installed system.
For more information about professional installation, talk to your Cisco sales representative.
Site Selection Guidelines
The Cisco 10008 router requires specific environmental operating conditions. Temperature, humidity,
altitude, and vibration can affect the performance and reliability of the router. The following sections
provide specific information to help you plan for the proper operating environment.
Site Environmental Requirements
Environmental monitoring in the Cisco 10008 series router protects the system and components from
damage caused by excessive voltage and temperature conditions. To ensure normal operation and avoid
unnecessary maintenance, plan and prepare your site configuration before installation. After installation,
make sure the site maintains the environmental characteristics as shown in Table 2- 1 .
Heat Dissipation
Like all electronic equipment, the Cisco 10008 router chassis and components produce heat when turned
on and operating. You must assess the site’s air conditioning capacity, and ensure it can compensate for
the heat dissipation of the system. Ta bl e 2-2 shows the maximum BTUs dissipated by the Cisco 10008
chassis with an AC PEM and all line cards installed.

Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation
Site Planning
Note The Cisco 10008 router installation must comply with all applicable codes and is approved for use with
copper conductors only. The ground bond fastening hardware should be of compatible material and
preclude loosening, deterioration, and electrochemical corrosion of hardware and joined material.
Attachment of the chassis ground to a central office or other interior ground system should be made with
a 6-AWG, copper ground conductor at a minimum.
Electrical Service Requirements
The building’s electrical wiring supplying power to the Cisco 10008 series router must comply with all
applicable building electrical codes. Also, the installation must comply with the following requirements:
• Wiring must have copper conductors. Copper conductor is the only electrical wire conductor
approved for use with the Cisco 10008 series router.
• Ground bond fastening hardware must be of compatible material and resist loosening or
deteriorating. Also, the joined hardware materials must resist electrochemical corrosion.
• Chassis grounding must be provided to avoid damage to the equipment due to lightning striking
power lines or due to power surges. The chassis ground must be attached to a central office or other
interior ground system with a copper ground conductor of 6 AWG (minimum).
• Short-circuit (overcurrent) protection must be provided as part of the building installation. Install
only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations.
• Power conditioning must be installed if the power surges or has spikes.
• 2-poled disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed circuit wiring for emergency power
shutdown.
Electrical Circuit Requirements
Each Cisco 10008 router requires a dedicated electrical circuit. If you equip it with dual power feeds,
provide a separate circuit for each PEM to avoid compromising the power redundancy feature.
The Cisco 10008 router can be powered by a DC or AC source. Ensure the equipment grounding is in
compliance with local and national electrical codes.
The following sections contain specific recommendations for AC and DC powered systems.
AC Powered Systems
The Cisco 10008 router chassis’ AC PEM uses a short power cord with a male IEC 320 C20 AC inlet
power connector and a strain relief device (canoe). This cord mates to an AC power cord consisting of
a female IEC 320 C19 connector on one end, and a connector compatible with the building’s AC
receptacle on the other end. When you order the chassis, you must specify the type of connector you
need to ensure compatibility with the building’s AC receptacle.
The electrical ratings of the Cisco 10008 router chassis AC PEM are:
• AC input voltage: 100 to 240 VAC
• AC input frequency: 50/60 Hz, single phase
• AC input current: 15 to 7A
• Input power consumption: 1400W maximum
