http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/.
The ACX Series Universal Access Routers are Ethernet-optimized mobile backhaul routers
that provide both switching and carrier-class Ethernet routing. The ACX Series routers
enable a wide range of business and residential applications and services, including
microwave cell site aggregation,mobile backhaul service cell site deployment, and service
provider or operator cell site deployment. The routers have high-density Ethernet
interfaces and high-capacity switching throughput.
ACX500 Routers Quick Start Description
An ACX Series router has a built-in Routing Engine and one Packet Forwarding Engine.
The Packet Forwarding Engine has one “pseudo” Flexible PIC Concentrator (FPC 0).
Because there is no switching fabric, the single Packet Forwarding Engine takes care of
packet forwarding.
The compact ACX500 indoor router is one rack unit (U; that is, 1.75 in., or 4.45 cm) tall.
Several routers can be stacked in a single floor-to-ceiling rack for increased port density
per unit of floor space. The chassis is a rigid sheet metal structure that houses all the
other router components. The chassis of the ACX500 indoor router measures 1.75 in.
(4.45 cm) high, 9.4 in. (24 cm) deep, and 17.5 in. (44.5 cm) wide. The outer edges of the
mounting brackets extend the width to 19.2 in. (48.7 cm) (with mounting brackets
attached). The chassis installs in standard 300-mm deep (or larger) enclosed cabinets,
19-in. equipment racks, or telco open-frame racks. The ACX500 indoor router is available
in both AC and DC models.
The ACX500 indoor router contains a total of 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, eight of which
are labeled COMBO. At any point of time, you can use a maximum of six ports.
The ports labeled COMBO (combination ports) consist of four RJ-45 ports and four
Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports. Out of the four RJ-45 ports, three ports support PoE (PoE+
and PoE++).
The two ports that are not part of the COMBO ports are the Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports.
On the ACX500, the six ports that you can use at any point of time can be two Gigabit
Ethernet SFP ports (non-combination) and four ports from the COMBO ports.
NOTE: You can mix and match the four RJ-45 and SFP COMBO ports as long
as the port numbers are unique.
For example, from the COMBO ports, you can use the SFP port 0/1/0 along
with the RJ-45 port 0/1/1 PoE+, but not the RJ-45 port 0/1/0 PoE++, because
the port numbers of the SFP and the RJ-45 ports are the same (0/1/0).

Operating range: –39 to –72 VDC–60
1. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the
ESD points on the chassis. For more information about ESD, see the ACX500UniversalAccess Router Hardware Guide.
2. Switch off the dedicated customer-site circuit breakers. Ensure that the voltage across
the DC power source cable leads is 0 V and that there is no chance that the cable
leads might become active during installation.
3. Remove the clear plastic cover protecting the terminal on the faceplate.
4. Verify that the DC power cables are correctly labeled before making connections to
the power supply.In a typical power distribution scheme where the return is connected
to chassis ground at the battery plant, you can use a multimeter to verify the resistance
of the –48V, +24V, –60V, and the return DC cables to chassis ground:
For –48V and –60V:
a. The cable with very large resistance (indicating an open circuit) to chassis ground
is the DC input cable (+).
b. The cable with very low resistance (indicating a closed circuit) to chassis ground
a. The cable with very low resistance (indicating a closed circuit) to chassis ground
is the return cable (–).
b. The cable with very large resistance (indicating an open circuit) to chassis ground
is the DC input cable (+).
5. Remove the screws and flat washers from the terminals.
6. Secure each power cable lug to the terminal with the flat washers and screw (see
Figure 10 on page 17). Apply between 8 lb-in. (0.9Nm) and 9 lb-in. (1.02 Nm) of torque
to each screw. Do not overtighten the screw. (Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver.)
a. Secure the positive DC source power cable lug to the return (+) terminal.
b. Secure the negative DC source power cable lug to the input (–) terminal.
CAUTION: Ensure that each power cable lug seats flush against the surface
of the terminal block as you tighten the screws. Ensure that each screw
is properly threaded into the terminal. Applying installation torque to the
screw when the screw is improperly threaded might result in damage to
the terminal.
CAUTION: The maximum torque rating of the terminal screws on the DC
powersupply is 9 lb-in. (1.02 Nm). The terminal screws might be damaged
if excessive torque is applied. Use only a torque-controlled driver to tighten
screws on the DC power supply terminals. Use an appropriately sized
driver, with a maximum torque capacity of 9 lb-in. or less. Ensure that the
driver is undamaged and properly calibrated and that you have been
trained in its use. Youmight want to use a driver that is designed to prevent
overtorque when the preset torque level is achieved.
7. Replace the clear plastic cover over the terminals on the faceplate.
8. Connect each DC power cable to the appropriate external DC power source.
NOTE: For information about connecting the router to external DC power
sources, see the instructions for your site.
9. Switch on the external circuit breakers to provide voltage to the DC power source
cable leads. Observe the system LED on front of the router. If the DC power cable is
correctly installed and functioning normally, the system LED lights green steadily. If
the system LED is not lit, the power supply is not functioning normally. Repeat the
installation and cabling procedures.

Architecture and Key Components
Powered by Juniper Networks Junos operating system, the ACX
Series routers complement Juniper’s universal edge solutions
through a flexible and scalable service provider and enterprise
branch routing portfolio optimized to support rapidly growing
mobile, video, and cloud computing applications. The ACX Series
introduces Juniper’s proven IP/MPLS leadership from core and edge
into the access layers of the network. Maintaining relative simplicity
in the access network, the ACX Series supports a rich suite of L2,
L3, and IP/MPLS functionality to allow large-scale seamless MPLS
networks with simplified service provisioning and operations.
The ACX Series delivers industry-leading performance with a
range of port densities and interface types. Table 1 provides a
snapshot of interfaces supported on each ACX Series model.
Integrated High Precision Timing
The ACX Series incorporates1 highly scalable and reliable
hardware-based timing technology, based on Juniper Networks
intellectual property that meets the strictest LTE-A requirements
for frequency and phase synchronization. Providing an accurate
timing reference is one of the most significant technical and
operational challenges for deployment of LTE radio access
networks. ACX Series routers support Synchronous Ethernet for
frequency as well as Precision Time Protocol (PTP) for both
frequency and phase synchronization. Furthermore, the ACX
Series allows Synchronous Ethernet and PTP to be used in a
hybrid mode for the highest level of frequency (10 ppb) and
phase (<500 nS) accuracy required for LTE-A. The ACX500,
ACX500-O, and ACX500-O-PoE also provide an integrated GPS
receiver and can act as grandmaster (GM) clock for a distributed
PTP implementation, making them an ideal choice for the
aggregation of small cell traffic when the backhaul is transported
over the Internet.
Advanced Security Services
One of the significant challenges in the roll out of small cells is
to address the security threats from easily accessible locations.
The ACX500 enables advanced security services such as
IPsec, MACsec, NAT, and TPM to protect against potential
vulnerabilities to the network as well as subscriber traffic.
Hardware acceleration through a purpose-built services engine
enhances the scalability of these computational-intensive
services to support a large-scale small cell deployment.
Enhanced Service Assurance, SLA Management
and Ethernet OAM
The ACX Series routers provide the most comprehensive set
of features. Using 802.3ah, 802.1ag, Y.1731, Two-Way Active
Measurement Protocol (TWAMP) and RFC2544, mobile
operators and wholesale service providers can make sure that
the services being offered through ACX Series routers are meeting

Environmental Hardened Design
Most of the ACX Series models such as ACX500, ACX1x00,
and ACX2x00, are temperature hardened and support
passive cooling for outdoor deployments in extreme weather
conditions. The ACX500-O and ACX500-O-PoE are based
on environmentally hardened, ruggedized chassis and are
IP65 compliant for outdoor deployments with no need for an
enclosure or cabinet. These are designed to be pole or strand
mounted alongside outdoor small cells.
