If you do not purchase the cabinet that NEC Corporation of America references,
provide a cabinet that meets the system’s requirements.
Electrical (AC) power planning
Provide electrical power sources that meet the system’s requirements, optionally including the purchase of a qualified uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
Network and telephone line planning
Provide sufficient network and analog telephone lines.
Welcome to Site Planning for Express5800/320Fc systems 1-1

Site Planning for Fault-Tolerant Systems

Use the “Site Planning Checklist” on page 1-3 to track your site preparation progress.
For a list of other documents related to your Express5800/320
Documentation” on page 1-5.
During the site planning and preparation processes, work closely with your facilities group or contractor to determine space, power, and environmental requirements. Enlist their help to provide a suitable location with sufficient alternating current (AC) power, heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) capabilities, and network and telephone connections.
If your system is covered by a service agreement and you need help with site planning, contact the NEC Technical Support. If you have a contract with the NEC Technical Support to install the system, contact them after you have prepared the installation site and moved the system to the site. For more information about NEC Technical Support, visit http://support.necsam.com/servers/ft.
See Appendix A, “System Specifications” for Express5800/320Fcsystem specifications and the Express5800/320Fc: Peripherals Site Planning Guide for specifications of
other components.
Site Planning for Fault-Tolerant Systems
Consider the following specific fault-tolerant features of Express5800/320Fc systems for site planning:
Lockstep technology means that the Express5800/320Fc systems contain redundant
hardware. The Express5800/320Fc systems contain two enclosures, each containing a full computing environment that consists of a CPU element and an I/O element.
Fc system, see “System
If a component in a CPU element malfunctions, the corresponding CPU element in the other enclosure, which is processing the same information in lockstep, continues processing without interruption. If a component in the I/O element malfunctions, the system fails operation over to the corresponding element in the other enclosure and continues to operate normally. The only consequences are that the system is less fault tolerant, and any I/O throughput distributed between the enclosures may be reduced. To restore full fault tolerance, an enclosure can be replaced without taking the system offline.

Cabinet Requirements

If you are providing your own cabinet for an Express5800/320Fc, make sure the cabinet contains a rack that is 19-in. wide and that meets the Electronic
Industries Association (EIA) 310-D standard.
Make sure that:
The cabinet contains two front and two rear vertical EIA rails, one in each corner of
the cabinet, that have the EIA universal square-hole pattern as defined in the EIA 310-D specification.
The front vertical rails extend at least 0.5 in. (1.27 cm) beyond the inside edge of
the accessory leg, if present, to allow the mounting rails to be fitted. See Figure 2-1.

Cabinet and Monitor Requirements

2-
The distance between the front and rear vertical rails is between 24.5 in. and 30 in.
(62.23 cm and 76.20 cm).
The vertical mounting rails accept 10-32 cage nuts and mounting hardware.
The distance between the front vertical rails and the inside of the front door is at
least 3.0 in. (7.62 cm).
The distance between the rear of the system chassis and the inside of the rear door
is at least 6.0 in. (15.24 cm).
The vertical mounting rails are plated or some other method is used to ensure
continuity for grounding between installed equipment.
Cable management brackets are provided to support and constrain data and power
cords so that the cables do not interfere with air flow out of the rear of the enclosures, and so that the connectors do not disconnect or break.
The cabinet provides enough stability so that system components pass Telcordia
®
GR-63-CORE Section 5.4.2 regulations for operational vibration.
Cabinet and Monitor Requirements 2-1
Cabinet Requirements
To prevent stray voltages, all components are grounded together through the
vertical mounting rails to the cabinet frame, and then to local building ground. To
ensure signal quality, use a grounding cable provided by NEC Corporation of America
for local building ground.
There is a plan for maintaining cables and wires to the cabinet by either running
them under the floor or placing them overhead in an overhead cable tray.
Air flows through the cabinet from front to back.
Filler panels cover any unused rack space to prevent air recirculation.
Vents are evenly distributed on the front and rear doors and comprise at least 63%
of the surface area.
Figure 2-1 shows the required rail clearance between the front vertical rails and the
inside edge of an accessory leg.
NOTE
If your cabinet does not have vented front and rear doors,

Redundant Power Sources

Express5800/320Fc systems require at least two separate and independent AC
power sources–an A-side power source and a B-side power source–that provide
power to the system’s power receptacles, labeled, respectively, A and B. Either source
must be capable of continuing to provide power if power to the other source is lost.

Electrical (AC) Power Planning

4-
The A-side power source provides power to components that do not require two sources of power: a KVM switch. If you use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), the UPS is the A-side power source.
The B-side power source provides power to the other side of each system.
The wattage required from the A-side power source will always be equal to or greater than the wattage required from the B-side power source.
Electrical (AC) Power Planning 4-1

Connecting a System Directly to Two Separate Power Sources
If you do not connect your Express5800/320Fc system or PDUs to a UPS, provide two AC power sources that are as electrically independent of each other as the installation site allows. At a minimum, the two power sources must be powered by separate circuit breakers (maximum of 20A) to AC power and, if possible, be independent of each other beyond that level. The more electrical separation between the two power sources, the less likely they will both fail at the same time. Due to redundancy in Express5800/320 the system in operation, although the system is no longer fault-tolerant with regard to power.

Electrical Circuit and Wiring Information

For electrical circuit and wiring information that you need to provide to the contractor and/or facilities personnel responsible for wiring the power at the system installation site, see:
“Fault Protection Requirements” on page B-1
“Grounding Considerations” on page B-1
“Circuit Wiring Diagrams” on page B-3
“Electrical Power Connectors” on page B-9

Fault Protection Requirements

Each enclosure in Express5800/320Fc systems contains internal fault/overload current protection. However, the system relies on the power distribution system at your site for protection against potential faults in the power cords and the wiring in
the system base.
If you are using a pair of PDUs in the cabinet, use 30A or less circuit breakers in
each power distribution branch that feeds the PDUs.
B-
To connect a single system to power, use 20A or less circuit breakers in each power
distribution branch that feeds the systems.

Grounding Considerations

The system obtains an earth reference ground through the power cords attached to the system. Similarly, each peripheral device connected to the system obtains ground through its power cord. For each peripheral device, you must ensure that a high-integrity safety-ground conductor is installed as part of the wiring system (in accordance with U.S. national electric code NFPA 70 or the equivalent). The international safety standard (EN60950) for electronic data processing (EDP) equipment also requires a ground conductor, but calls it a protective earth (PE) ground.
Depending upon local conditions, ground potentials may differ between the system base and any peripheral devices connected to the system base. All grounds in the system must return to the same reference point in the power distribution system, as close as possible to zero (0) volt potential relative to earth reference ground. Earth
Electrical Circuit and Wiring Information B-1
Grounding Considerations
reference ground is typically a metal stake in the ground to which the ground conductors from one or more buildings are attached.
As shown in Figure B-1, a star ground is often used to obtain the same earth reference ground. Each earth reference ground, such as the system base ground, is returned separately to a common point where a zero-volt (0V) earth ground exists. The star ground ensures that all equipment is at the same potential and that no noise or safety problems associated with an unpredictable or uncharacterized grounding system will occur.

Circuit Wiring Diagrams

The following circuit wiring diagrams show how the hot, ground, and/or neutral AC signals should be connected to the system’s power input plug:
Figure B-3 illustrates a single-phase 120-volts AC circuit connection.
Figure B-4 illustrates a single-phase 240-volts AC circuit connection.
Figure B-5 illustrates a split-phase 120/240-volts AC circuit connection.
Figure B-6 illustrates a three-phase 208-volts AC, Y-, or ∆-source circuit

Figure B-7 illustrates a three-phase 208-volts AC, Y-, or ∆-source circuit
connection, phase-to-phase.
Figure B-8 illustrates a three-phase 380V AC, Y-, or ∆-source circuit connection,

Circuit Wiring Diagrams
In the diagrams in this appendix, the power inputs for
an Express5800/320Fc
system are labeled X and Y, as shown in Figure B-2, to eliminate any ambiguities in the nomenclature. For single-phase applications, the X input is connected to the L (Line) hot input, and the Y input is connected to the N (Neutral) input. However, for split-phase or three-phase applications, the X and Y inputs are connected to L1, L2, or L3 (separate lines). Therefore, for split-phase or three-phase applications, both X and Y can be electrically hot with respect to the system base (earth reference ground). Figure B-2 shows the physical locations of the
X and Y inputs on the
system base.
