HUAWEI CX600-X1-M/CX600-X2-M Series Metro Services Platform Hardware Description

Purpose

This document describes hardware features of the CX600, which helps intended readers obtain detailed information about each chassis, board, and cable, and rapidly locate specific information through lists of components.

About This Document

Note the following precautions:

l Currently, the device supports the AES and SHA2 encryption algorithms. AES is reversible,

while SHA2 is irreversible. A protocol interworking password must be reversible, and a local administrator password must be irreversible.

l If the plain parameter is specified, the password will be saved in plaintext in the configuration

file, which has a high security risk. Therefore, specifying the cipher parameter is recommended. To further improve device security, periodically change the password.

l Do not set both the start and end characters of a password to "%$%$." This causes the

password to be displayed directly in the configuration file.

1.2 Power Supply System

1.2.1 Architecture of the Power Supply System

The device supports DC power input of -48 V DC or -60 V DC and outside AC power input of 85 V AC or 220 V AC.

The device is powered by two PSUs, which work in 1+1 backup mode. When one PSU fails or is removed, the other one can still supply adequate power for the device. The PSUs are installed in the two top slots of the chassis and supply power for the MPUs, NPU, PICs, and fan module.

In the case of an AC power supply system, one AC power frame is placed outside the chassis (Huawei ETP48120-F1 is configured compliant to the standards) and installed with rectifier modules based on system power. The AC power frames are then connected to the input terminals on the DC-PEMs to supply power for the system. (In short, external AC power frames are added to the DC power supply system to constitute an AC power supply system.)

AUX/4xFE-A

The following measures are taken to ensure that the PSUs can supply stable and safe power for the system:

l Protection against output overcurrent

l Protection against output overvoltage

l Protection against input undervoltage

l Protection against overtemperature

l Protection against short circuit

l Alarm generation

1.2.2 Diagram of the Power Supply Architecture

A power supply system consists of two power modules working in 1+1 redundancy mode.

Figure 1-6 shows the diagram of the power supply architecture. Each power module provides

a 48 V power input and a 3.3 V power input to the boards. The two 48 V power inputs are integrated in the boards and the two 3.3 V power inputs are integrated in the backplane and then input to the boards. Each power module provides a 48 V power input to the fans. The two 48 V power inputs are integrated in the backplane and then input to the fans.

Table 1-6 Description of the indicators on the PSUs

Indicator Name Description

OUT When the indicator is steady green, the PSUs are working properly

and supply stable power.

When the indicator is steady red, the hardware of the PSUs fails or the device is not supplied with power ranging from -48 V or -60 V or the input voltage is lower or higher than the normal range.

When the indicator is off, the PSUs are switched off or the hardware of the PSUs is faulty.

IN When the indicator is steady green, the power input is normal.

When the indicator is off, the device is not supplied with power ranging from -48 V or -60 V.

l Notes on DC power monitoring:

The DC power monitoring channel can implement real-time monitoring on power supply. In addition, the DC power monitoring channel allows you to query the manufacturing ID, input voltage, and temperature of the PSUs in real time, and supports real-time reporting of power supply alarms.

l Notes on the configuration of DC power cables:

You do not need to connect protection ground cables to the PSUs, but the protection ground cable for the chassis must be properly grounded. DC power cables include a -48 V power cable and a return (RTN) ground cable. The required cable length depends on the distance between the cabinet and the power distribution cabinet for the device. The DC power cables need to be prepared according to the required lengths on site. For details about DC power cables, see 5.1.1 DC Power Cables.

1 CX600-X1-M4 Hardware Description

1.2.4 AC Power Supply System

Working principles of the ETP48120-F1 AC power supply system are as follows:

The ETP48120-F1 uses single-phase power input.

The ETP48120-F1 supplies power for AC-DC rectifiers using the system backplane.

The DC output of the AC-DC rectifiers is congregated by the bus and then divided to multiple power-supplying channels.

The SMU01A monitoring module monitors the operating parameters of the ETP48120-F1 in real time, analyzes the operating status, and reports alarms.

Figure 1-8 shows the outline of an AC power supply system.

1.3 Heat Dissipation System

The heat dissipation system is responsible for the heat dissipation of the entire device. Heat generated by the boards is dissipated through the heat dissipation system. In this manner, the temperatures of the components on the boards are controlled within a normal range, enabling the boards to work stably. The heat dissipation system is composed of a fan frame, an air intake vent, an air exhaust vent, and an air channel. All the fans in the fan frame work simultaneously, and their rotation speeds can be adjusted by area. When one fan fails, the heat dissipation system can still allow the device to work at an ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F) for a short period. The temperature sensors, which are located on the air exhaust vent and boards, monitor the temperatures of the components on the boards and adjust the fan rotation speeds according to the commands delivered by the MPU to control the board temperatures.

1.5 Control Plane

1.5.1 Introduction to the Control Plane

The function of control plane is implemented by the MPU.

The device can be equipped with a single MPU or double MPUs (in backup mode).

1 CX600-X1-M4 Hardware Description

In the case of double MPUs, when the master MPU is working, the slave MPU is in the standby state. You can connect either the management network port on the master MPU or that on the slave MPU to the device. The slave MPU exchanges information (heartbeat messages and backup data) with only the master MPU. Data consistency between the master and slave MPUs is ensured through high reliability mechanisms such as batch backup and real-time backup. After a master/slave switchover, the slave MPU immediately becomes the master MPU. You can configure a default master MPU. During the start process, the MPU that you configure wins the competition and becomes the master MPU.

MPUs support two switchover modes: failover and manual switchover. The failover is triggered by serious faults or resetting of the master MPU. The manual switchover is triggered by commands run on the console interface or management interface.

The MPU integrates multiple functional units. By integrating the system control and management unit, clock unit, and system maintenance unit, the MPU provides the functions of the control plane and maintenance plane. The functions of the MPU are detailed as follows:

l System control and management unit

The MPU is mainly responsible for processing routing protocols. In addition, the MPU broadcasts and filters routing packets, downloads routing policies from the policy server.

The MPU manages the NPUs and communicates with the NPUs. The MPU implements outband communication between boards. The MPU manages and carries out communication between the NPUs and slave MPU through the outband management bus.

The MPU is also responsible for data management. The system configuration data, booting file, upgrade software, and system logs are stored on the MPU. The Compact Flash (CF) card on the MPU functions as a mass storage device for saving data files including system files, configuration files, and logs, and is not hot-swappable.

The MPU manages and maintains the device. Through management interfaces such as serial interfaces and network interfaces on the MPU, you can manage and maintain the device.

l System clock unit

The system clock unit of the MPU provides NPUs and PICs with reliable and synchronous SDH clock signals.

23

HUAWEI CX600-X1-M/CX600-X2-M Series Metro Services Platform Hardware Description 1 CX600-X1-M4 Hardware Description

The MPUs support the clock that complies with IEEE 1588v2.

l System maintenance unit

The system maintenance unit of the MPU collects monitoring information, remotely or locally tests system units, or performs in-service upgrades on system units.

Through the Monitorbus, the MPU collects the operation data periodically. The MPU produces controlling information, such as detecting the board presence and adjusting the fan speed.

NOTE

The MPUs work in 1:1 hot backup mode, improving system reliability.

Other subcards, including the 8-Channel CWDM Multiplexing/Demultiplexing Physical Interface Card and Auxiliary Flexible Interface Card.

When the 4x10GE-SFP+ subcard is installed, the NPU-120 or NPU-120-E must also be installed. In addition, the 4x10GE-SFP+ subcard must be installed in one of the four slots close to the NPU.

For the CX600-X2-M8 that has the NPU-50/NPU-50-E installed, 2-port 10GBase subcard cannot be installed in both slot 1 and slot 8. It is recommended that you insert a 10GE PIC into a slot close to the NPU.

2 CX600-X2-M8 Hardware Description

Board Working Modes Supported by the CX600-X2-M8

The CX600-X2-M8 supports the master/slave and load balancing working modes for NPUs.

l Master/slave

– In master/slave mode, the master NPU forwards services of all subcards, and the slave

NPU is a hot standby backup. The slave NPU takes over the services only when the master NPU is unavailable, for example, when the master NPU fails or restarts. This implementation prevents service interruptions when the master NPU is unavailable.

– In master/slave mode, each NPU manages all the eight subcards, PICs 1 to 8 in Figure

2-7.

l Load balancing

– In load balancing mode, two NPUs forward services of their managed subcards

respectively to load balance the total traffic of all subcards. If one NPU is unavailable, the other NPU will not take over services on the unavailable NPU. Therefore, the load balancing mode is less reliable than the master/slave mode.

– In load balancing mode, each NPU manages only the subcards in the same half board

cage as the NPU itself. For example, in the board layout shown in Figure 2-7, NPU 9 manages PICs 1 to 4, and NPU 10 manages PICs 5 to 8. If NPU 10 is unavailable, NPU 9 will not take over the services of PICs 5 to 8.

Numbering Rule of Service Interfaces on the CX600-X2-M8

Service interfaces on the CX600-X2-M8 are numbered in the following format: 0/subcard slot number/interface number on the subcard.

l A subcard slot number is the number of the slot where an interface's subcard resides. A

subcard slot number ranges from 1 to 8.

l An interface number on the subcard starts with 0, and its maximum value is determined by

the actual number of interfaces on the subcard.

The following figure shows how a service interface is numbered on the CX600-X2-M8.

OUT When the indicator is steady green, the PSUs are working properly

and supply stable power.

When the indicator is steady red, the hardware of the PSUs fails or the device is not supplied with power ranging from -48 V or -60 V or the input voltage is lower or higher than the normal range.

When the indicator is off, the PSUs are switched off or the hardware of the PSUs is faulty.

IN When the indicator is steady green, the power input is normal.

When the indicator is off, the device is not supplied with power ranging from -48 V or -60 V.

l Notes on DC power monitoring:

The DC power monitoring channel can implement real-time monitoring on power supply. In addition, the DC power monitoring channel allows you to query the manufacturing ID, input voltage, and temperature of the PSUs in real time, and supports real-time reporting of power supply alarms.

l Notes on the configuration of DC power cables:

You do not need to connect protection ground cables to the PSUs, but the protection ground cable for the chassis must be properly grounded. DC power cables include a -48 V power cable and a return (RTN) ground cable. The required cable length depends on the distance between the cabinet and the power distribution cabinet for the device. The DC power cables need to be prepared according to the required lengths on site. For details about DC power cables, see 5.1.1 DC Power Cables.

2.3 Heat Dissipation System

The heat dissipation system is responsible for the heat dissipation of the entire device. Heat generated by the boards is dissipated through the heat dissipation system. In this manner, the temperatures of the components on the boards are controlled within a normal range, enabling the boards to work properly. The heat dissipation system is composed of a fan frame, an air intake vent, an air exhaust vent, and an air channel. All the fans in the fan frame work simultaneously, and their rotation speeds can be adjusted by area. When one fan fails, the heat dissipation system can still allow the device to work at an ambient temperature of 40°C (104° F) for a short period. The temperature sensors, which are located on the air exhaust vent and boards, monitor the temperatures of the components on the boards and adjust the fan rotation speeds according to the commands delivered by the MPU to control the board temperatures.

2.3.1 Air Channel

The CX600-X2-M8 dissipates heat by blowing air from left to right. Figure 2-12 shows the air flow in the CX600-X2-M8.

Fans become faulty.

2.5 Control Plane

2.5.1 Introduction to the Control Plane

The function of control plane is implemented by the MPU.

The device can be equipped with a single MPU or double MPUs (in backup mode).

In the case of double MPUs, when the master MPU is working, the slave MPU is in the standby state. You can connect either the management network port on the master MPU or that on the slave MPU to the device. The slave MPU exchanges information (heartbeat messages and backup data) with only the master MPU. Data consistency between the master and slave MPUs is ensured through high reliability mechanisms such as batch backup and real-time backup. After a master/slave switchover, the slave MPU immediately becomes the master MPU. You can configure a default master MPU. During the start process, the MPU that you configure wins the competition and becomes the master MPU.

MPUs support two switchover modes: failover and manual switchover. The failover is triggered by serious faults or resetting of the master MPU. The manual switchover is triggered by commands run on the console interface or management interface.

The MPU integrates multiple functional units. By integrating the system control and management unit, clock unit, and system maintenance unit, the MPU provides the functions of the control plane and maintenance plane. The functions of the MPU are detailed as follows:

l System control and management unit

The MPU is mainly responsible for processing routing protocols. In addition, the MPU broadcasts and filters routing packets, downloads routing policies from the policy server.

The MPU manages the NPUs and communicates with the NPUs. The MPU implements outband communication between boards. The MPU manages and carries out communication between the NPUs and slave MPU through the outband management bus.

The MPU is also responsible for data management. The system configuration data, booting file, upgrade software, and system logs are stored on the MPU. The Compact Flash (CF)

card on the MPU functions as a mass storage device for saving data files including system files, configuration files, and logs, and is not hot-swappable.

The MPU manages and maintains the device. Through management interfaces such as serial interfaces and network interfaces on the MPU, you can manage and maintain the device.

l System clock unit

The system clock unit of the MPU provides NPUs and PICs with reliable and synchronous SDH clock signals.

The MPUs support the clock that complies with IEEE 1588v2.

l System maintenance unit

The system maintenance unit of the MPU collects monitoring information, remotely or locally tests system units, or performs in-service upgrades on system units.

Through the Monitorbus, the MPU collects the operation data periodically. The MPU produces controlling information, such as detecting the board presence and adjusting the fan speed.

NOTE

2.5.2 MPUK

The MPUs work in 1:1 hot backup mode, improving system reliability.

If ten 10GE interfaces or less are used on an CX600-X2-M16, configuring them evenly on the left and right sides of a frame is recommended.

For the CX600-X2-M16 that has the NPU-50\NPU50-E installed, 2-port 10GBase PICs cannot be installed in both slot 5 and slot 12, and slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 13, 14, 15, and 16 support only PICs whose total bandwidth is smaller than or equal to 2 Gbit/s; for the CX600-X2-M16 that has the NPU-120/NPU-120-E installed, slots 1, 2, 15, and 16 support only PICs whose total bandwidth is smaller than or equal to 2 Gbit/s.

Board Working Modes Supported by the CX600-X2-M16

The CX600-X2-M16 supports the master/slave and load balancing working modes for NPUs.

l Master/slave

– In master/slave mode, the master NPU forwards services of all subcards, and the slave

NPU is a hot standby backup. The slave NPU takes over the services only when the master NPU is unavailable, for example, when the master NPU fails or restarts. This implementation prevents service interruptions when the master NPU is unavailable.

– In master/slave mode, each NPU manages all the sixteen subcards, PICs 1 to 16 in

l Load balancing

– In load balancing mode, two NPUs forward services of their managed subcards

respectively to load balance the total traffic of all subcards. If one NPU is unavailable, the other NPU will not take over services on the unavailable NPU. Therefore, the load balancing mode is less reliable than the master/slave mode.

– In load balancing mode, each NPU manages only the subcards in the same half board

cage as the NPU itself. For example, in the board layout shown in Figure 3-5, NPU 17 manages PICs 1 to 8, and NPU 18 manages PICs 9 to 16. If NPU 18 is unavailable, NPU 17 will not take over the services of PICs 9 to 16.

Numbering Rule of Service Interfaces on the CX600-X2-M16

Service interfaces on the CX600-X2-M16 are numbered in the following format: 0/subcard slot number/interface number on the subcard.

l A subcard slot number is the number of the slot where an interface's subcard resides. A

subcard slot number ranges from 1 to 16.

l An interface number on the subcard starts with 0, and its maximum value is determined by

Issue 03 (2014-04-30) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential

72

HUAWEI CX600-X1-M/CX600-X2-M Series Metro Services Platform Hardware Description

the boards to work properly. The heat dissipation system is composed of a fan frame, an air intake vent, an air exhaust vent, and an air channel. All the fans in the fan frame work simultaneously, and their rotation speeds can be adjusted by area. When one fan fails, the heat dissipation system can still allow the device to work at an ambient temperature of 40°C (104° F) for a short period. The temperature sensors, which are located on the air exhaust vent and boards, monitor the temperatures of the components on the boards and adjust the fan rotation speeds according to the commands delivered by the MPU to control the board temperatures.

3.3.1 Air Channel

The CX600-X2-M16 dissipates heat by blowing air from left to right. Figure 3-9 shows the air flow in the CX600-X2-M16.

3.5 Control Plane

3.5.1 Introduction to the Control Plane

The function of control plane is implemented by the MPU.

The device can be equipped with a single MPU or double MPUs (in backup mode).

In the case of double MPUs, when the master MPU is working, the slave MPU is in the standby state. You can connect either the management network port on the master MPU or that on the slave MPU to the device. The slave MPU exchanges information (heartbeat messages and backup data) with only the master MPU. Data consistency between the master and slave MPUs is ensured through high reliability mechanisms such as batch backup and real-time backup. After a master/slave switchover, the slave MPU immediately becomes the master MPU. You can configure a default master MPU. During the start process, the MPU that you configure wins the competition and becomes the master MPU.

MPUs support two switchover modes: failover and manual switchover. The failover is triggered by serious faults or resetting of the master MPU. The manual switchover is triggered by commands run on the console interface or management interface.

HUAWEI CX600-X1-M/CX600-X2-M Series Metro Services Platform Hardware Description

The MPU integrates multiple functional units. By integrating the system control and management unit, clock unit, and system maintenance unit, the MPU provides the functions of the control plane and maintenance plane. The functions of the MPU are detailed as follows:

l System control and management unit

The MPU is mainly responsible for processing routing protocols. In addition, the MPU broadcasts and filters routing packets, downloads routing policies from the policy server.

The MPU manages the NPUs and communicates with the NPUs. The MPU implements outband communication between boards. The MPU manages and carries out communication between the NPUs and slave MPU through the outband management bus.

The MPU is also responsible for data management. The system configuration data, booting file, upgrade software, and system logs are stored on the MPU. The Compact Flash (CF) card on the MPU functions as a mass storage device for saving data files including system files, configuration files, and logs, and is not hot-swappable.

The MPU manages and maintains the device. Through management interfaces such as serial interfaces and network interfaces on the MPU, you can manage and maintain the device.

l System clock unit

3 CX600-X2-M16 Hardware Description

3.5.2 MPUK

The system clock unit of the MPU provides NPUs and PICs with reliable and synchronous SDH clock signals.

The MPUs support the clock that complies with IEEE 1588v2.

l System maintenance unit

The system maintenance unit of the MPU collects monitoring information, remotely or locally tests system units, or performs in-service upgrades on system units.

Through the Monitorbus, the MPU collects the operation data periodically. The MPU produces controlling information, such as detecting the board presence and adjusting the fan speed.

NOTE

The MPUs work in 1:1 hot backup mode, improving system reliability.
