1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
The Nortel Secure Router 8012 is a high-end router developed by Nortel and designed for the
carrier aggregation layer and the enterprise backbone layer network. The Secure Router 8012
features include high performance, double Routing Process Units (RPUs), double Network
Process Units (NPUs), and hot backup.
The Secure Router 8012 has a modularized structure and provides the High-speed Interface
Card (HIC) and the Flexible Interface Card (FIC).
The hardware structure of the Secure Router 8012 provides the following attributes:
z
It supports hot swapping.
z
The backplane is in the middle. The boards are inserted in the backplane horizontally,
allowing easy configuration and maintenance.
z
The fan is located to the left of the router backplane. Multiple fans provide heat
dissipation.
The Secure Router 8012 also provides an effective monitoring system through the main
control module on the RPU. The RPU can manage, monitor, and maintain the board, the fan
module, and the power module.
Nortel Secure Router 8012
Hardware Description
The Secure Router 8012 adheres to electromagnet ic com patibili ty (EMC) and Underwriters
Laboratories Inc. (UL) standards. The entire system reaches the module-class shield level.
Every front panel is made of steel sheet to isolate the electromagnetic wave between boards.
1.2 Structure
The Secure Router 8012 provides the backplane in the middle and an integrated chassis with
the board inserted horizontally. The chassis is 6 U in height (1 U = 44.45 millimeters [mm])
and can be mounted in a 19-inch standard cabinet or on the workbench.
