Unpacking the Controller
Unpacking the Controller
WARNING! The controller is heavy (40 lbs/18.14kg). Two people should work
together to unpack the controller. Ruckus Wireless strongly recommends against
one person attempting to perform this task alone.
Follow these steps to unpack the controller.
1 Open the controller package, and then carefully remove the contents.
2 Return all packing materials into the shipping box, and then put the box away
in a dry location.
3 Verify that all of the items listed in Verifying the Package Contents (below) are
included in the package. Check each item for damage. If any item is damaged
or missing, notify your authorized Ruckus Wireless sales representative
immediately.
Verifying the Package Contents
A complete controller package contains all of the items listed below:
• One controller with two AC/DC power supply units
• One console cable (use only this cable to connect the front or rear serial port via
a laptop/notebook)
• One rack mount kit (see Rack Mount Kit Contents below)
• Service Level Agreement / Limited Warranty Statement sheet
• Regulatory Statement sheet
•This Getting Started Guide
NOTE: The AC power cable (part number 902-0174-XX00, where XX is the two-
character country code) is not supplied with the controller and may be ordered
separately.

Before You Begin
Before You Begin
Before installing and setting up the controller, Ruckus Wireless recommends that
you first complete the following pre-installation tasks.
Prepare the Required Hardware and Tools
You must supply the following tools and equipment:
• A switch or router with 10GbE interfaces (for connecting the controller to the
backbone network)
NOTE: A Fast Ethernet or Gigabit switch/router is required to upload management
data, cluster data, and configurations. A 10GBE switch/router is only required if the
customer is going to use tunnels.
• A Phillips #1 screwdriver
• A flat head screwdriver
• An administrative computer (desktop or laptop) running Windows 8/7/Vista/XP
or Mac OS X, containing a minimum RAM of 13G, with a web browser installed
(Google Chrome recommended). Supported web browsers include:
• Google Chrome 15 (and later)
• Safari 5.1.1 (and later)
• Mozilla Firefox 8 (and later)
• Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.0
• A grounded electrical power strip or surge suppressor to protect from circuit
overload
• A standard EIA 19-inch wide rack with an available 2RU space
• Two SFP+ modules (see Supported SFP+ Modules). For a redundant setup, you
will need four SFP+ modules.
NOTE: At the beginning of each procedure, this guide lists the specific tools,
accessories, or equipment that you will need to complete that procedure.

become unresponsive.
NOTE: For information on how to access and use the SCG command line
interface, refer to the Command Line Interface Reference Guide.

Redundant Interfaces on the SCG
The SCG offers network redundancy options by providing redundant interfaces for
the three traffic types that it handles – control traffic, cluster traffic, and management
traffic. A redundant interface pairs an active interface and a standby interface. When
the active interface fails, the standby interface becomes active automatically and
takes over the job of passing traffic.
To enable a redundant interfaces pair, you need to connect the member ports
(see Ta b le 7 ) to the same router or switch or to two different routers or switches,
depending on the network environment of your organization.
Figure 6 identifies the redundant interface pairs on the rear panel of the SCG and
Tab le 7 lists the member ports of each redundant interface pair.

Mounting the SCG onto a Server Rack
Mounting the SCG onto a Server Rack
The SCG is a 2U form factor server designed for mounting onto a standard EIA 19”
server rack. The supplied mounting hardware supports mounting on server racks
that are 22.5” to 32.5” deep. For racks of depth less than 22.5”, use the TMLCMOUNT21 rack mount kit (available at Avnet and manufactured by Kontron).
Before installing the SCG appliance onto a server rack, verify that all package
contents (see Unpacking the Controller) are included and ensure that you have
prepared all the required hardware and tools.
What You Will Need
• 3/8-inch hex driver or wrench
• Phillips (crosshead) screwdriver, #1 and #2 bits
• Anti-static wrist strap and conductive foam pad (recommended)
Step 1: Unpack the Rack Mount Kit
Refer to Rack Mount Kit Contents and verify that the rack mount kit contents are
complete.

Step 2: Separate the Slide Rails into the Inner and Outer Parts
Step 2: Separate the Slide Rails into the Inner
and Outer Parts
1 Extend the inner rail (see 1 in Figure 7) until it locks.
2 Press down the spring safety lock (see 2 in Figure 7) to release the inner rail.
3 Remove the inner rail from the rail assembly (see 3 in Figure 7).

Step 3: Install the Outer Rail Slides to the Rack Posts
Step 3: Install the Outer Rail Slides to the Rack
Posts
NOTE: The two rail assemblies are NOT interchangeable. Each assembly needs to
be installed into the rack by its orientation (right or left) when standing in front of the
rack. The right rail assembly is identified with a BLUE sticker and the left rail assembly
is identified with a GREEN sticker.
Attach the outer rail slides to the rack posts using two #8-32 x 1/2 screws at the
front posts and two #8-32 x 1/2 screws at the rear posts.

Step 5: Install the Inner Rails on the Server
Install the inner rails onto the hex head shoulder screws, and then slide the inner
rails forward.
Figure 10. Installing the inner rails
Step 6: Fasten the Inner Rails to the Server
Secure the inner rails with one #6-32 x 1/4 screw for each rail.

Step 7: Attach the Mounting Ears to the Rail Assembly
Step 7: Attach the Mounting Ears to the Rail
Assembly
Attach the rack mounting ears (A) to each side of the server using the #10-32 x 3/
8 screws (B).
Figure 12. Attaching the mounting ears
Step 8: Slide the Rail Assembly into the Outer Rails and Secure to the Rack
WARNING! The controller is heavy (40 lbs/18.14kg). Two people should work
together to lift and slide the appliance into the rack. Ruckus Wireless strongly
recommends against one person attempting to perform this task alone.
1 Align the inner rails (attached to the server chassis) with the outer rail assemblies
(attached to the rack).
2 Engage the matching rails, and then slide the server chassis into the rack until
the two spring safety locks snap into position.
3 Press down the two spring safety locks (one on each side). See 1 in Figure 13.
4 Slide the server chassis all the way into the rack. See 2 in Figure 13.
5 Use the rack screws (#8-32 x 3/4) to secure the chassis and rack handles into
the rack. See 3 in Figure 13.

Congratulations! You have completed mounting the SCG onto your server rack.
Powering On the SCG
The SCG supports both AC and DC power. Refer to the relevant section below for
instructions on how to power on the SCG.
• Using AC Power
• Using DC Power
Using AC Power
NOTE: The AC power cable (part number 902-0174-XX00, where XX is the two-
character country code) is not supplied with the SCG appliance and may be ordered
separately.
Follow these steps to use AC to supply power to the SCG.
1 Connect the AC power cable to the primary power socket (right) on the rear
panel. Optionally, connect a second AC power cable to the backup power socket
(left) on the rear panel.

Using DC Power
The DC power subsystem supports up to two redundant DC power supply units
(PSUs). To remove the PSU, simply press down on the green locking tab while
pulling outward on the PSU handle. To insert the PSU, slide the entire unit (green
locking tab toward the top) fully into the SCG chassis until it locks in place.
If using D C power, connect -4 8V DC input power to the PSU. The DC input polarity
is marked on the DC PSU case. In Figure 16, “-” is on the left and “+” is on the right.
NOTE: Use #14-#10 AWG to the DC input connector.
CAUTION! To avoid the potential for electrical shock and fire hazard, ensure that
the DC wiring to the DC input connectors has adequate circuit protection in
accordance with local electrical codes
NOTE: Information on how to replace the PSU is provided in the SmartCell Gateway
200 Administrator Guide.
Figure 16. DC input connector
Follow these steps to use DC to supply power to the SCG.
1 (When looking at the DC input connector from the angle shown above), slide the
screw cover on the top of the DC input connector to the left to reveal the top
screws.
2 Loosen the screws enough so that the DC input wires can be fully inserted into
the apertures.
3 Insert the “-” wire into the left side aperture, and the “+” wire into the right side.
4 Screw the top screws down until the wires are locked in place.
