Review Installation Roadmap
The figure, Installation Workflow, lists the steps to install Cisco NCS 5500 Series fixed-port chassis and its
components and prepare the system for operation. Use this workflow as a reference to ensure that all components

are properly installed in the correct order. For information about a step, see the respective section of this
installation guide.
Figure 1: Installation Workflow
Prepare for Installation
Review Safety Guidelines
Before you perform any procedure in this document, review the safety guidelines in this section to avoid
injuring yourself or damaging the equipment. The following guidelines are for your safety and to protect
equipment. The guidelines do not include all hazards. Be alert.
Keep the work area clear, smoke and dust-free during and after installation. Do not allow dirt or debris
•
to enter into any laser-based components.
Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, or other items that could get caught in the router or other associated
•
components.
Cisco equipment operates safely when used in accordance with its specifications and product-usage
•
instructions.
Be sure to power down a fixed configuration PDU or modular configuration power shelf before removing
•
it from the chassis.
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.

Prepare for Installation
Review Installation Guidelines
Take care when connecting units to the supply circuit so that wiring is not overloaded.
•
This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the
•
absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority
or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
To prevent personal injury or damage to the chassis, never attempt to lift or tilt the chassis using the
•
handles on modules (such as power supplies, fans, or cards); these types of handles are not designed to
support the weight of the unit.
Hazardous voltage or energy is present on the backplane when the system is operating. Use caution
•
when servicing.
When installing or replacing the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected
•
last.
The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the rack must be bolted to the floor before you slide
•
the unit out for servicing. Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.
Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from disconnected fibers or connectors. Do not stare into beams
•
or view directly with optical instruments.
Review Installation Guidelines
Before installing the chassis, verify that these guidelines are met:
Site is properly prepared so that there is sufficient room for installation and maintenance. For specifications
•
on the clearances required for chassis installation, see Clearance Requirements, on page 62.
Operating environment is within the ranges listed in Environmental and Physical Specifications, on
•
page 59
Chassis is mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
•
When mounting the chassis in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the
•
heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the
•
chassis in the rack.
Airflow around the chassis and through the vents is unrestricted.
•
Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting
•
fixtures. Make sure that the cabling is safely away from other devices that might damage the cables.
Procure Tools and Equipment
Obtain these necessary tools and equipment for installing the chassis:
Number 1 and number 2 Phillips screwdrivers with torque capability to rack-mount the chassis.
•
3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver
•
Tape measure and level
•

Prepare for Installation
ESD wrist strap or other grounding device
Antistatic mat or antistatic foam
A Torx T15 screwdriver, or the Torx T15 key to install adapters.
Grounding cable (6 AWG recommended), sized according to local and national installation requirements;
the required length depends on the proximity of the switch to proper grounding facilities
Ground lug (1)
Crimping tool large enough to accommodate the girth of the lug
Wire-stripping tool
(ANSI) Pair of 19-inch mounting brackets
M4 screws to fix brackets (16)

Prepare Your Location
This section illustrates how the building that houses the chassis must be properly grounded to the earth ground.
(See Prepare Your Location , on page 7 .)

Prepare Yourself
Prepare Yourself
This section illustrates how to prepare yourself before removing the chassis from the sealed antistatic bag.
The figures show how to cuff the ESD strap around the wrist and the ground cord that connects the cuff to
the ground. ESD wrist straps are the primary means of controlling static charge on personnel.

Prepare Rack for Chassis Installation
Install the NCS 5500 Series chassis into a four-post 19-inch (48.3-cm) standard rack with standard horizontal
mounting rails. Before you move the chassis or mount the chassis into the rack, we recommend that you do
the following:
Step 1
Step 2
10
Place the rack where you plan to install the chassis. Ensure that the rack that the chassis is being installed is grounded
to earth ground as instructed in Prepare Your Location , on page 7.
Secure the rack to the floor.
To bolt the rack to the floor, a floor bolt kit (also called an anchor embedment kit) is required. For information on bolting
the rack to the floor, consult a company that specializes in floor mounting kits (such as Hilti; see Hilti.com for details).
Make sure that floor mounting bolts are accessible, especially if annual retorquing of bolts is required.

Install the Chassis
Rack-Mount the Chassis on a 4-Post Rack
Step 1
Install two rack-mount brackets to the router as follows:
a) Determine which end of the chassis is to be located in the cold aisle as follows:
If the router has port-side intake modules (fan modules with burgundy coloring), position the router so that the
•
ports are in the cold aisle.
If the router has port-side exhaust modules (fan modules with blue coloring), position the router so that the fan
•
and power supply modules are in the cold aisle.
b) Position a rack-mount bracket on the side of the chassis with its four holes aligned to four of the screw holes on the
side of the chassis, and then use four M4 flat-head screws to attach the bracket to the chassis.
Note
Note
Cisco NCS 55A1-36H-S, NCS 5502, NCS 5502 SE: Remove the grounding cover label and align the
grounding cover plate with the grounding holes in the chassis and attach the rack mount brackets.
You can align four of the holes in the rack-mount bracket to four of the screw holes on the front side of
chassis or four of the screw holes on the rear side of the chassis. The holes that you use depend on which
side your chassis need to be put in the cold aisle.
