Module
Each FR6822+ frame can house two redundant, modular, and fully self-contained power
supply units (PSU). All FR6822+ frames come with one AC or DC power supply, which can
support an entire frame load. An optional redundant AC or DC power supply can be
ordered separately. Power supply configurations can be a mix of AC and DC units.
Each PSU is hot-swappable, ensuring no disruption to frame operation. Other features of
both power supplies include the following:
Allows frame monitoring of PSU
Includes power switch on front of PSU unit
Maintains compatible output rails ±6.8 V for 6800 and 6800+ products
The 6822+AC auto-switches 90 to 240 V AC, at 47 to 63 Hz. “Power” and “Fault”
indicators are located on the front of the PSU.
The 6800+48V supports a -48 VDC input and provides DC PSU protections including input
fuse, inrush current limiting, input transient protection, short circuit protection on all
outputs, and reverse input voltage protection. It provides a Power Good green LED and an
Overheat red LED.
See Figure 1-2 on page 3 to locate the PSU units in the FR6822+ frame, or
Power Supplies on page 75 for a more detailed description.
If a frame has no resource module, no remote control will be available, and control of the
frame’s modules will be at the card edge only.
The 6800+ETH resource card allows communication between 6800+ devices and CCS™
software applications such Navigator™, and provides a communication interface between
CCS control panels such as NUCLEUS.
The 6800+ETH module provides 10/100Base-T Ethernet access, while the CCS software

Load Limitations Each FR6822+ frame can contain two redundant, modular, self-contained power
supply units with standard IEC mains connectors. One PSU can support an entire
frame load. An AC unit requires an independent supply of 100 to 250 V AC, at 47 to
63 Hz. DC units require an independent supply of 36 to 72 V DC.
Voltage
Selection
FR6822+ frames do not have voltage selector switches. Voltage selection is automatic
upon power-up.
These ratings refer to the
total module power
consumption (excluding
that of the power supply)
allowable within an
FR6822+ frame. The limits
are based on the ability of
the unit to dissipate heat
over a temperature range
of 32° to 113°F (0° to
45°C).
Installing the Frame in a Rack
The FR6822+ frame is designed to mount into a standard-width 19-in. (483-mm) rack and
occupies a vertical space of 2RU.
Frames are secured to the rack with standard front-mounting ears built into the chassis.
Ensure you have provided adequate space behind the mounting ears, and appropriate
clearance for the connecting cables at the rear of the frame.

Attaching Optional Rear-Support Brackets
During normal operation, the frame’s front mounting ears provide sufficient supp ort for the
frame. However, in some circumstances, the front mounting ears may not be sufficient to
support the entire weight of the frame and the cables attached to it. These circumstances
may include:
When using heavy breakout cables
Where the frame is exposed to motion
In order to protect the f rame and the modules installed within it, you may choose to add
rear brackets to the frame.
Note: For mobile deployment of frames, rear mounting brackets are mandatory.
If you do not install rear mounting brackets and the frame becomes warp ed, please contact
your Customer Service representative. Do not use a warped frame. If rear modules pop out
as the frame warps, do not attempt to replace them in the frame. Damage to a frame due
to improper installation will not be covered under warranty.
Follow this procedure to identify rear-support brackets and attach them to the frame:
1Locate two tongue-shaped frame support brackets, two slotted rack-support brackets, and
one cable support bar from the packing box (if ordered). See Figure 2-2.

Figure 2-2 Optional Support Brackets and Cable Support Bar
2Thread the cable support bar into each rear-support bracket, and then secure with the
provided screws. See Figure 2-3.
Figure 2-3 Installing a Cable Support Bar
Note: Attach the two tongue-shaped frame-support brackets to the sides of the FR6822+ frame,
using the provided screws. See Figure 2-4.
CAUTION
When mounting the rear support brackets, use the screws provided, or use four
4-40×1/4-inch flat head screws. Longer screws could cause internal damage to the
frame.
3Attach the two slotted rack-support brackets at the rear of the rack, with the slots facing
inward. See Figure 2-5.
Figure 2-5 Installing Rack-Support Brackets
4Position the FR6822+ into the rack, ensuring that the frame-support brackets slide into the
installed slotted rack supports.
5Attach the front-mounting ears on the chassis to the rack, using the appropriate rack
screws.
Installing and Removing Resource Modules
Resource modules can be upgraded in the field. To purchase a resource module, contact
Customer Service. See Table 2-1 on page 10 for a list of available modules and their part
numbers.
A FR6822+ frame must contain a resource module for remote control. Without a resource
module installed, your frame will supply power to the modules. You will be able to control
the modules at the card edge only.
Your frame may have come with one of the following resource modules:
6800+ETH module for controlling and monitoring modules using a CCS network or
web browser
6800+ETHSNMP for controlling and monitoring modules using a CCS network, web
browser, or SNMP-based control application
There are no card-edge controls on resource modules.

Installing and Removing 6800+ Modules
There are different module and connector types that may require installation:
Triple-slot back connectors
Double-slot back connectors
Single-slot back connectors
Front modules
Depending on the product type, there are various back connectors, front modules, and
frame types that are available, interchangeable, and compatible. For example, module back
connectors can come in either triple-slot, double-slot, or single-slot sizes; and certain 680 0+
modules and/or back connectors can be installed in either an FR6822+, FR6802+QXF,
FR6802+DM, FR6822+, or 6800/7000 series frame. Check the individual module manual
that comes with your product to identify which back connector types work with your
module, and which frames are compatible with the module.
Up to 20 front modules connected to single -slot back connectors fit in an FR6822+ frame.
Up to 10 front modules can fit in an FR6822+ frame if they are connected to double-slot
back connectors (2 spaces are required to accommodate the extra width of the back
connector).
