CHAP T E R

Overview

The Cisco NCS 6008 chassis is a mechanical enclosure that contains a chassis midplane and packet interfaces on line cards cross-connected to each other through a switch fabric. The chassis has eight slots at the front for Line Cards (LCs), two slots at the rear for Route Processor (RP) cards, and six slots at the rear for Fabric Cards (FCs).

The Cisco NCS 6008 chassis has an integrated rack and does not require an external rack. It is bolted to the facility floor. It contains its own power and cooling systems. Power systems are available using AC or DC power.

This chapter provides information about the Cisco NCS 6008 chassis before you unpack it and transport it to the final installation location.

• Chassis Specifications, page 1-2

• Safety Guidelines, page 1-2

• Site Preparation, page 1-3

• Dolly Specifications, page 1-4

Chassis Packaging

Depending on the number of options that you ordered, the Cisco NCS 6008 chassis arrives packaged in several shipping crates and pallets. The chassis is shipped on a pallet by itself and arrives inside a polyethylene bag enclosed in a plywood box, held in place by steel clips. Other system components are shipped in separate crates and can arrive at the final chassis site at different times.

For complete details on the contents of your shipment, see the inventory and parts identification label on the crate. The total number of pallets depend on the details of the options that you ordered, with each package containing a label that describes the contents.

Note The following list is only a sample of what a Cisco NCS 6008 chassis shipment contains. For complete

details on the contents of each pallet, see the shipping and parts identification label on the pallet or the shipping manifest.

• Dolly pallet—Contains two dolly units in the 90-degree position (Figure 1-3).

• Chassis pallet—Contains the chassis itself encased in a polyethylene bag and covered with a wooden

packing crate held together with metal brackets. The chassis is the first shipping box to be unpacked and transported to its final installation location.

Safety Guidelines

Caution 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. Guidelines do not include all hazards. Be alert.

Note Review the safety warnings listed in Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco NCS

Network Convergence System before installing, configuring, or troubleshooting any installed card.

Chapter 1

• Never attempt to lift an object that might be too heavy for you to lift by yourself.

• Keep the work area clear and dust free during and after installation. Do not allow dirt or debris to

enter into any laser-based components.

• Keep tools and chassis components away from walk areas.

• Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, and other items that could get caught in the chassis while

working with the chassis and its associated components.

• Use Cisco equipment in accordance with its specifications and product-usage instructions.

• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. We recommend use of an ESD-preventive strap whenever you handle network equipment or one of its components.

Follow these guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

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

Connect the equipment end of the connection cord to an ESD connection socket or bare metal surface on the chassis.

Site Preparation

• Handle a card by its ejector levers, when applicable, or its metal carrier only; avoid touching the

board or connector pins.

• Place a removed card board side up on an antistatic surface or in a static-shielding bag. If you plan

to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding bag.

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

voltage on the body: ESD voltage on clothing can still cause damage.

Caution When unpacking and setting parts aside, it is important to set them either in their original antistatic

packaging or on an antistatic mat to avoid ESD damage.

Site Preparation

Before moving the chassis into place and securing it, you must make sure that your site is prepared. Verify that the securing location provides the recommended space and ensure that you have enough space available for installation and maintenance of the chassis and its components.

For additional details on making your site ready for the chassis, see the Cisco Network Convergence

System 6000 Series Routers Site Planning Guide.

System Installation Templates

Because of its size and weight, the chassis must be securely bolted to the floor. Cisco provides a drill hole template (Figure 1-1) that ships attached to the inside of the crate door. The template identifies the chassis footprint and the pattern of holes that must be drilled into the floor for the mounting hardware that secures the chassis to the floor.

Dolly Specifications

The optional dolly that is available for the Cisco NCS 6008 chassis is flexible enough to meet several challenges common when first positioning a chassis of this size and weight. Such challenges include limited hallway or doorway width, doorway thresholds, ramps, and tight corners along the transport route. To overcome these challenges, use the dolly in either of the following configurations:

• 90-degree configuration—The dolly assemblies are shipped in this configuration. In some cases, this

configuration is needed to transport the chassis. Use the 90-degree configuration (Figure 1-5) to move the chassis off the pallet. Extra care should be used in this configuration to ensure that the chassis does not tip too far and fall during transport.

Chapter 1

Dolly Specifications

• 180-degree configuration—This configuration is a more stable configuration for transporting the

chassis. The 180-degree position (Figure 1-6) is the recommended configuration for moving the chassis.

Both configurations are acceptable to transport the as-shipped chassis.

Note The optional NCS 6008 lift dolly is available from Cisco with PID NCS-LIFT. If you already have a CRS

lift dolly, you can order PID NCS-LIFT-BRKT, which is the CRS lift upgrade to the NCS 6008.

Table 1-2 lists the specifications for the NCS 6008 lift dolly.

Unpacking the Dolly

We recommend the use of the dolly to move the chassis. The dolly is an optional item that you can order. The shipping crate contains the dolly units, positioned in the 90-degree configuration (Figure 1-3). This section describes how to unpack and position the dolly units.

Note In the event that the dolly supplied by Cisco is not the appropriate method of transportation, consult with

Cisco support to determine a method of transportation appropriate for the site. Ensure that the alternate moving device is capable of supporting the weight of the chassis, moving the chassis safely, and preventing the chassis from tipping too far and falling during transport.

Required Tools and Equipment

• 3/8-inch ratchet wrench

• 5/8-inch socket

• Flat-blade screwdriver

Steps

Step 1 Carefully move the pallet containing the dolly to the location where you plan to unpack it. The dolly

arrives as two separate, identical units, one unit each for the front and back of the chassis.

Step 2 Use the flat-blade screwdriver to remove the clip from the dolly shipping crate (Figure 1-2).

Modifying the Dolly Configuration

The dolly can be positioned in either the 180-degree or 90-degree configuration, depending on the needs of your site. See the “Guidelines” section on page 3-1 for important recommendations before modifying the dolly configuration.

When changing the configuration of the dolly wheel assemblies (from 180 to 90 degrees or conversely), follow these guidelines:

• Lower the chassis to the floor before you change configurations.

• Keep the casters on the floor at all times when you are changing the dolly configuration from one

position to the other.

• Unlock the brake or anti-rotation on the casters only when you are ready to actually change the

configuration (move the lift swing arm bracket). When you are preparing to change the configuration (remove bolts), make sure that the brakes and anti-rotation pin are in the locked position.

• Change the dolly configuration one caster at a time. Take your time and do not rush through the

process.

• Make sure that the bolts are secured after you have completed changing the configuration.

Dolly Specifications

Required Tools and Equipment

• 3/8-inch ratchet wrench

• 12-mm hex bit

Steps

To change the dolly configuration from the as-shipped 90-degree configuration to the preferred 180-degree transport configuration, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Set the caster wheel rotation using the caster anti-rotation pin. Turn the anti-rotation pin to a vertical

position to lock the caster (Figure 1-5, callout 2).

Step 2 To lock the brakes depress the brakes on each side of the dolly.

Step 3 Using the handles (Figure 1-5, callout 9), turn the dolly lifting cranks to raise or lower the dolly

according to the label rotation direction. Turn the lifting cranks until the dolly casters are just off the floor.

Step 4 Unlock the dolly caster brakes and anti-rotation pins on both units.

Step 5 On the dolly unit attached to the front side of the chassis, use the 3/8-inch ratchet wrench with 12-mm

hex bit to remove the two holding bolts on the left side lift arm swing bracket to convert to the 180-degree configuration.

Moving the Chassis

This chapter describes the things to consider as you move the Cisco NCS 6008 chassis from the loading dock to the mounting location at the site.

• Important Notice, page 3-1

• Guidelines, page 3-1

• Verifying the Move Path, page 3-3

• Moving the Unpacked Chassis, page 3-5

Important Notice

A fork lift or pallet jack can be used to transport a crated chassis only.

Throughout this document we refer to the dolly (supplied by Cisco) as the required means to transport the uncrated chassis from the shipping dock to the chassis final location.

In the event that the dolly supplied by Cisco is not the appropriate method of transportation, consult with Cisco support to determine a method of transportation appropriate for the site. Ensure that the alternate moving device is capable of supporting the weight of the chassis, moving the chassis safely, and preventing the chassis from tipping too far and falling during transport.

CHAP T E R

Guidelines

When you use the dolly to move the as-shipped Cisco NCS 6008 chassis, follow these guidelines:

• When using the dolly to move the as-shipped chassis between locations, ensure that the chassis is

free of RP cards, FCs, LCs, fan trays, and power components (to reduce weight). Cisco strongly recommends that you do not move a chassis while it’s fully populated.

Caution The crated Cisco NCS 6008 chassis is tall and heavy. Handle it carefully to reduce the risk of

tipping the chassis over too far so that it falls to the floor and causes injury. Cisco recommends that at least two people move the chassis together to better support its size and weight.

• When raising or lowering the chassis, follow these guidelines:

–

Make sure that you have at least one person on each side of the chassis to turn the lifting cranks on the dolly as simultaneously as possible.

Guidelines

Chapter 3

–

Raise or lower the chassis only on a level surface.

–

Make sure that the caster brakes and anti-rotation pins are in the locked position.

–

Keep the casters on the floor at all times when you are raising or lowering the chassis.

–

Attempt to keep the chassis itself as level as possible when raising or lowering it with the dolly.

–

Use the height label on the dolly to make sure that you have the correct amount of ground clearance. The label shows the recommended transport chassis engagement height, the height that is not to be exceeded, and to ensure correct alignment between both dolly wheel assemblies.

• When moving the chassis in a hallway (standard hallway is 5 feet wide) or through aisles using a

dolly, follow these guidelines:

–

Make sure that you have at least two people to transport the chassis. Never transport the chassis by yourself.

–

Use the dolly in the 180-degree configuration whenever possible when you move the chassis. This configuration requires you to have passageways at least 50 inches in width to accommodate the combined dolly and chassis width.

–

Use the dolly in the 90-degree configuration if your site restrictions require it. If hallway constraints require you to use the 90-degree dolly configuration (24 inches), the chassis is more likely to tip, so use extra care when transporting the chassis in that configuration.

–

When the dolly is used to transport the chassis, to reduce the risk of dolly instability, chassis damage, or personal injury, do not raise the equipment more than 1 inch (2.4 cm) above the floor during transportation.

–

The dolly can be used to transport the chassis over thresholds up to 1.5 inches.

Warning

• When transporting the chassis on a ramp, follow these guidelines:

–

Make sure that you have at least three people to transport the chassis up and down a ramp. One person in the rear pushing, one person at the front pulling, and one steering the chassis.

–

The dolly is optimized to move the chassis on flat surfaces. It is not designed to move the chassis on ramps greater than 1 inch of rise for every 6 inches of run. If the ramp exceeds this maximum limit, consult with Cisco support.

–

Exercise extreme caution when moving chassis up an incline of any angle.

Caution Use the recommended 180-degree configuration to transport a chassis. If the 90-degree

configuration is used, then the chassis is more likely to tip. Use caution and take extra care in rolling the chassis up a ramp. Always follow proper safety practices whenever moving a Cisco NCS 6008 chassis.

This dolly is designed only for the temporary transportation of the Cisco equipment listed here. Do not use it with any other device or for any other purpose. Cisco equipment designed for use with the dolly: Cisco NCS 6008 Chassis.

Do not permanently locate the equipment on the dolly. Safely store the dolly after use.

Verifying the Move Path

Warning

Caution Dolly wheel casters and anti-rotation pins should be in the locked position when the dolly is not in use.

To reduce the risk of dolly instability, chassis damage, or personal injury, do not raise the equipment more than 1 inch (2.4 cm) above the floor during transportation.

This dolly is designed to transport the equipment over short distances only.

In order to reduce the risk of chassis damage or personal injury when replacing a fully-loaded, existing chassis, do not move the chassis in a configuration that is greater than the as-shipped chassis. Before attaching the dolly and moving the chassis, remove the power system, fan trays, RP cards, FCs, and LCs from the chassis.

To reduce the risk of dolly instability, chassis damage, or personal injury, do not transport the equipment with the dolly raised higher than the maximum transport height shown on the dolly label, and do not raise the equipment higher than required to remove the shipping pallet. For information about maximum dolly heights, see the dolly instructions in this document.

Verifying the Move Path

Before moving the chassis, it is critical that you verify that the path that you are planning to use to move the chassis to its final location can accommodate the chassis size and weight and the restrictions of the chassis when using the dolly.

See Table 3-1 for a list of the restrictions for your move path, and verify that you have sufficient room for the entire move path prior to moving the chassis.

Moving the Unpacked Chassis

Steps

Step 1 With a person on each side of the chassis, turn all four lifting cranks of the dolly slowly clockwise. Lift

Chapter 3

the dolly to the “Transport” marking on the height label on each lift assembly leg. The dolly can be used to transport the chassis at heights from 0.5 to 3.0 inches; the transport height is 1 inch max and 1.5 inch max for going over thresholds.

Note The dolly has four separate lifting cranks, each of which works independently. It is best to turn

each lifting crank simultaneously when lifting the chassis to keep the chassis as level as possible so as to not put undue stress on the chassis frame or dolly and to reduce the risk of tipping too far.

Note The 180-degree position is the recommended configuration for moving the chassis. If needed

because of site requirements, rotate the dolly to the 90-degree position. If you are transporting in a 90-degree configuration, then have at least two people moving the chassis to prevent any transporting hazard. See the “Modifying the Dolly Configuration” section on page 1-11 for further information.

Note You must lower the chassis completely to the floor before rotating the outrigger legs. When you

have rotated the lifting cranks, raise the chassis again. See the “Modifying the Dolly

Configuration” section on page 1-11 for further information.

Step 2 Unlock the dolly caster anti-rotation and brake systems.

Note The dolly is optimized to move the chassis on flat surfaces. It is not designed to move the chassis

up stairs, over curbs, up ramps, or over bumps more than 1.5 inches high (such as door thresholds).

Step 3 Use at least three people to transport the chassis up any ramp. Position one person in the front of the

chassis to pull, one person at the rear of chassis to push, and one person steering the chassis.

Step 4 Carefully roll the chassis into position near its mounting location.

Securing the Chassis

This chapter describes how to secure the Cisco NCS 6008 chassis to a concrete floor. The chassis is shipped with a drill hole template to assist you in putting the bolts in the proper position on the floor. The template is used for both raised floors and slabs. The drill hole template identifies primary and secondary locations for securing the chassis to the floor. Whenever possible, use the following:

• Primary mounting locations

• Secondary locations only when the primary locations are not available

The instructions in this chapter are specific to securing the chassis to a concrete floor. The instructions for securing the chassis to a raised floor vary from site to site, depending on such details as whether your floor needs additional support (as local practice applies for raised floors), and where (depending on the location of the floor tiles) the bolt holes need to be. Work with your facilities representative to determine your needs for your particular site.

Identify chassis location and ensure that there is sufficient space before performing this task.

Required Tools and Equipment

• Drill hole template

• Marking pen or pencil

• 3/8-inch ratchet wrench

• Set of standard and metric sockets

• Drill and bits for masonry and wood

• #1 Phillips screwdriver

Note The full list of tools depends on the anchor bolt kit that you use. See the documentation for your anchor

bolt kit for details.

Unpacking Chassis Components

Step 4 Carefully move the chassis into place over the bolt holes. See the “Moving the Unpacked Chassis”

section on page 3-5 for details on moving the chassis with the dolly.

Note Where side clearance is not enough to use the dolly, you must first lower the chassis to the floor

and then slide it into place.

Step 5 Lock the dolly caster anti-rotation and brake systems.

Step 6 With a person on each side of the chassis, turn all four lifting cranks of the dolly counterclockwise slowly

to lower the chassis to the floor.

Note The dolly has four separate lifting cranks, each of which works independently when lifting or

lowering the chassis. It is best to turn the lifting cranks simultaneously when lifting the chassis so as to not put undue stress on the chassis frame or dolly and reduce the risk of tipping too far.

Step 7 Remove the dolly from the chassis.

Warning

Step 8 Insert all anchor bolts.

Step 9 Tighten all bolts and nuts.

Do not permanently locate the equipment on the dolly. Safely store the dolly after use.

Unpacking Chassis Components

The remaining shipping boxes and pallets are now ready to be delivered from the receiving/shipping dock or a site holding area to the final location of the chassis.

Steps

Step 1 If possible, move the pallets to the same location as the unpacked and secured chassis. If not possible,

move the individual boxes containing the various components to the chassis location.

Note All components are packaged separately. Cards are attached and installed on a wooden board

insert held in place by captive Phillips screws.

Step 2 Unpack all primary pallet parts from the packaging, and set the parts aside for installation.

Step 3 Unpack all secondary pallet parts from the packaging, and set the parts aside for installation.

Note Do not unpack individual cards until you are ready to install the cards in the chassis.
