Preparing the Site for the Installation

Preparing the Site for the Installation

Overview

Before you install the CVX 600 chassis, you need to prepare your site. Consider
the method of mounti ng (r ack or f lat s urfac e), t he ins tall ation of th e rack (if used) ,
tools and equipment needed, space requirements, and weight. These issues are
addressed in detail in this chapter.

Reference

For information about the environmental requirements and power specifications,
see Appendix A, “Technical Specifications.”

Mounting Options

Nortel Networks Rack Recommendation

Nortel Networks recommends us ing a Physical Telecommunications Environment
(PTE) 2000 rack.

Caution: Nortel Networks does not authorize the use of racks with front

or rear doors or side panels. The operating environment must provide
airflow at 200 cubic feet per minute (CFM) per CVX 600 chassis at a
temperature range of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C). The optimal ambient
temperature for reliable CVX 600 operation is 68° to 77°F (20° to 25°C).

Rack Placement

The rack you plan to install should be in an area that is:

• A dedicated equipment room or closet, wired in accordance with local
electrical codes

• Large enough to allow easy access for service and maintenance

• Free of dust, smoke, and electrostatic discharge

Note: The recommended aisle spacing is 29.5 in. (750 mm).

Ceiling Requirements

Consider the following ceiling requirements before you install the rack:

• The ceiling should be clear of obstructions such as beams, heating and air
conditioning ducts, water pipes, and lights.

• The ceiling should not have sprinklers; however, appropriate fire protection
devices should be available.

Size and Weight Considerations

Before you install the rack at your site, make sure that the equipment ro om can
accommodate the size and weight of the rack and the CVX 600.

Flooring Requirements

You must anchor the PTE 2000 rack to the equipment-room floor. The flooring
can be one of the following types:

• Raised floor tiles, ideally with a clearance of 18 in. (45.5 cm), and a subfloor
cable management system

• Bare concrete floor

Depth for Drilling

If you plan to install the PTE 2000 floor anchors on a bare concrete floor, you
must drill to the following depths:

• 2 in. (51 mm) for the 3/8 in. anchor (for zone 2 earthquake compliance,
NTRU0323/NTRU0326)

• 4 in. (103 mm) for the M12 anchor (for zone 4 earthquake compliance,
NTRU0324/NTRU0328)

Warning: Before you begin to drill, make sure you are familiar with the

building construction. If you plan to drill holes in a below-ground
structure, make sure th at you do not drill through the concr ete into the
vapor barrier. If you do, groundwater may seep through the anchor hole.

1-10 296-1011-202 Rel. 5.0, Do c. Rev. 02.01

Access Considerations

The doorways, corrid ors, and elevator s leading to the in stallat ion site must be able
to accommodate the rack. Consider the following when planning the arrival and
unloading of the PTE 2000 rack:

• Including the pallet on which the PTE 2000 rack is shipped, the height of the
rack is 91.66 in. (2,325 mm). The pallet width is 39.4 in. (1,000 mm).

• The weight of an empty PTE 2000 rack is approximately 125 lb (57 kg),
excluding the shipping crate.

• Use freight elevators (if available) to move the equipment to upper floors.

Installing the CVX 600 Chassis

Mounting the Chassis in a Rack

The mounting flanges are preinstalled on the chassis.

Caution: Nortel Networks recommends using a PTE 2000 rack. Nortel

Networks does not authorize the use of racks with front or rear doors or
side panels. The operating envi ronment must provide airflow at 200 cubic
feet per minute (CFM) per CVX 600 chassis at a temperature range of 32°
to 104°F (0° to 40°C). The optimal ambient temperature for reliable
CVX 600 operation is 68° to 77°F (20° to 25°C).

Caution: Before you install the CVX 600 chassis in a rack, ensure that

the rack is sturdy and well secured. A fully configured CVX 600 chassis
weighs about 70 lb, which could make an unsecured rack top-heavy or
unstable.

Connecting Alarms

Connecting Alarms

Introduction

The SCC-LTM and SCC-RLTM contain a terminal block that allows you to
connect up to thre e audib le al arms and three visua l alar ms. These alar ms al ert y ou
to critical, major, and minor conditions. T he left six screw terminals on the
terminal block are available for visual alarms, such as lights; the right six screw
terminals are available for audible alarms, su ch as bells.

Warning: The contacts on the terminal block are rated at 30 VAC and

have a maximum current rating of 1 ampere (A). The circuit connecting
the alarms must meet the requirements for safety extra-low voltage
(SELV). The wires connecting the alarms must be the appropriate gauge
for alarm devices.

During normal, uninterrupted operation, the contacts remain open. If a failure
occurs, the contacts close and trigger the connected alarm.

Alarm Categories

The following table lists the three general categories of alarms and the possible
causes:

Alarm Possible Cause

Critical (Crit) Hardware failures: the system power supply and fan module have

failed, for example.
Major (Maj) Communication failures: the link or network connection has failed.
Minor (Min) Modem failures: the configured thresholds have been exceeded.

Routing the Cables

Cable Mounts

The CVX 600 chassis includes plastic cable mounts that you can use to position
the cables, using cable ties (not supplied), around the chassis. These mounts help
to ensure that the cables at the back of the chassis do not obstruct airflow and do
not obstruct the removal of LTMs and RLTMs.

Suggested Use

Typically, the cable mounts on the left are used to route communications cables,
while the one on the lower right is used to route power cables.

Routing the Cables

Routing Fiber Optic Cables

Introduction

The routing of fi be r o ptic cables require s d ifferent considerations than the r out ing
of wire cables, due to th e delicate material of the transmission line.

Minimum Radius

The following table gi ves the minimum be nd radius for se veral types of fi ber optic
cable:

Cable/Fiber Type Numb er of Fibers

Simplex 1 35 mm 50 mm

Duplex 2 70 mm 140 mm

Quad 4 85 mm 160 mm

Minimum Bend Radius
(normal handling)

Minimum Bend
Radius (static load)

Note: The minimum radius must be maintained at all times, including

while routing the cable and managing slack cable.

Rack Standoff Brackets

To ensure that the fiber optic cable is properly secured to the chassis, a
rack-mounted bracket may be used to support the fiber optic cable. Nortel does
not supply a bracket for this purpose.

Securing and Wrapping Fiber Optic Cables

Fiber optic cables can be secured with tie wraps, if not applied too tightly. Your
application may also require the fiber to be wrapped in a protective paper. Tie
wraps must be fitted in accordance with Nortel Work Standards WS-001 and
WS-4024.

Installing and Removing the Flash Memory Cards

Installing and Removing the Flash Memory Cards

Description

The SCC-SM contains dual PCMC IA slots for the flash mem ory card. The flash
memory card provides storage for the CVX 600 nonvolatile file system (NVFS),
operating system software, and configuration files. When you insert the flash
memory card, the NVFS automatically provides access to the flash memory card.

The dual PCMCIA slots are labeled 1 and 2. Sl ot 1 i s the C: drive and sl ot 2 i s the
D: drive. Always use slot 1 for the flash memory card. Use slot 2 if you need to
copy the flash memory card in slot 1 to a flash memory card in slot 2.

Reference

See the manual CVX Multi-Service Access Switch Configuration Guide for
information about copying a flash memory card.

Note: If the flas h memory card is not already in the SCC, insert it into

slot 1.

Warning: You must use software Release 5 .0 or later when using an

Optical SCC-II-SM. Use of older ver sions will corrupt the SCC-SM,
requiring the return of the module to Nortel for reprogramming. Do not
copy earlier versions of software to a flash memory card used in an
Optical SCC-II-SM.

Note: When using the Opt ical SCC-II-LTMs in slots 9 and 10 in the CVX

1800, or slots 5 and 6 in the CVX 600, the active SCC will need to be
addressed.

Recommendations

Terminal server use is also recommended in the following cases:

• Where the CVX chassis is in a remote location

Console port

1

CVX 1800 with two
Optical SCC-II-LTMs

Ethernet ports

CVX-0263A

• When Ethernet access is restricted

• To provide a backup method for access when Ethernet or Telnet access is

disrupted

Connecting Equipment to a Local Ethernet Port

Connecting Equipment to a Local Ethernet Port

Description

The 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet port on the SCC-LTM and SCC-RLTM allows you to
connect a remote PC or similar device to the CVX 600 using an Ethernet hub.
Connecting to a remote PC allows you to edit a CVX 600 configuration using
Telnet. You can also use the Ethernet port to connect to a remote Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) server for SNMP-based management.

Note: The 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet port is an autosensing port that adjusts

automatically for 10 or 100 Mb/s transmission. This means that the port
selects the correct operating speed based on the data packets it receives
from the remote PC.
