Power Requirements

The central office (CO) power source or rectifier supplies external power to the system as -48 VDC from the fuse and alarm panel. Power connections from the fuse and alarm panel are wired separately to the Cisco 6100 chassis and the fan tray. Connections for single- and dual-power feeds are provided. The power input connections are redundant, and only one is absolutely necessary for system operation. The nominal voltage is -48 VDC; the minimum operating value is -36 VDC; and the maximum operating value is -60 VDC.

Before you connect the system to a power source, verify that the power source is properly grounded and it falls within the internal power supply rating.

Depending on your configuration type, calculate the typical power required for each Cisco 6100 Series component. After you calculate the typical power, determine the minimum fuse value for each component that is wired to the fuse and alarm panel. Use Table 3 to calculate the minimum fuse rating that is necessary for each of your Cisco 6100 with NI-1 system components.


Note   The power rating label that is supplied on the rear of each chassis and fan tray indicates the maximum fuse value for the chassis or the fan tray.

Measure the Rack Space and Prepare the Rack

When upgrading your system from a DOH configuration to a Direct Connect with a POTS splitter configuration, you may have to move the hardware components in the rack to accommodate the fan tray and a second Cisco 6120. Figure 13 shows several hardware component locations in a Direct Connect with a POTS splitter configuration using quad-port ATU-C modules.


Figure 13: Direct Connect Configuration Components



Warning Two people are required to lift the chassis. Grasp the chassis underneath the lower edge and lift with both hands. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back.

Complete the following steps to measure the rack space and prepare the rack:


Step 1   Use
Table 8 to calculate the rack space necessary for your Cisco 6100 system configuration. The total amount of rack space should not exceed 42 RUs. If your total configuration exceeds 42 RUs, either replan your configuration or use more than one rack to house the Cisco 6100 with NI-1 system components.


Table 8: Rack Space Calculation for the Direct Connect with a POTS Splitter Configuration
Line Instructions Calculation
1

Total number of Cisco 6100 chassis in the rack—Maximum is two chassis per rack (include subtending host and subtended node chassis).

2

Total number of fan trays in the rack1—Use when installing either dual-port DMT-2 ATU-C or quad-port flexi ATU-C modules in the chassis.

3

Total number of POTS splitters2 in the rack.

4

Multiply 9 RUs by the total number of Cisco 6100 chassis on line 1.

5

Add 1 RU for intake plenum (1 RU for each Cisco 6100 chassis on line 1).

6

Multiply 2 RUs by the total number of fan trays on line 2.

7

Multiply 4 RUs by the total number of Cisco 6120 chassis on line 3.

8 Add lines 4 through 7 for the total number of RUs needed with your Direct Connect with a POTS splitter configuration using Cisco 6100 chassis.

1If you are using multiple Cisco 6100 chassis in your configuration, a fan tray is required to be installed under each chassis.
2Either a Cisco 6120 or a Siecor ADSL POTS Splitter Rack-Mount Shelf can be used in a Direct Connect with a POTS splitter configuration.

Step 2   Close and secure the Cisco 6100 rear cover (if applicable).

Step 3   Move the Cisco 6100 chassis up or down in the rack to accommodate the fan tray and additional Cisco 6120 chassis, as necessary.

Step 4   Move the existing Cisco 6120 chassis up or down in the rack to accommodate the fan tray and additional Cisco 6120, as necessary.


Stabilize the Rack

Before you install the fan tray and second Cisco 6120 chassis needed for a Direct Connect with a POTS splitter configuration, you need to stabilize the rack for the new hardware components.

Verify that your Cisco 6100 with NI-1 system is installed from the bottom to the top of the rack so the rack remains stable. If your system is not installed from the bottom to the top of the rack, make the necessary adjustments to the rack as discussed in the "Install the POTS Splitter" section.


Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:

- This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

- When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.

- If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.

Install the POTS Splitter

In a Direct Connect with a POTS splitter configuration using quad-port ATU-C modules, it is necessary to expand the system to accommodate 128 ports in one of the following ways:

The following sections detail the installation procedures for each POTS splitter.

Install the Additional Cisco 6120

Complete the following steps to install the Cisco 6120 in the rack:


Warning Two people are required to lift the chassis. Grasp the chassis underneath the lower edge and lift with both hands. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back.


Note   The Cisco 6120 chassis ships with a retaining bar in place. Verify that the retaining bar is secure before lifting the chassis. The retaining bar prevents the modules from falling out of the chassis.


Step 1   Position one Cisco 6120, which occupies 4 RUs of space, in the rack. See Figure 13 for the correct placement of the Cisco 6120.

The Cisco 6120 does not dissipate heat; therefore, the bottom of the rack is the best location for the Cisco 6120.

Step 2   Use six mounting screws and a Phillips-head screwdriver to bolt the Cisco 6120 in the rack.

Step 3   Remove the retaining bar.

Step 4   Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for each Cisco 6120 as necessary.


Install the Siecor POTS Splitter

For installation procedures for the Siecor POTS splitter, refer to the Siecor ADSL POTS Splitter Rack-Mount Shelf Central Office Version document.

See Figure 13 for the correct placement of the Siecor POTS splitter.


Warning Two people are required to lift the chassis. Grasp the chassis underneath the lower edge and lift with both hands. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back.

Install the Fan Tray

If you are installing dual-port DMT-2 or quad-port flexi ATU-C modules in this configuration, you must have a fan tray installed directly below the Cisco 6100 chassis.


Note   If you are using more than one Cisco 6100 chassis in a Direct Connect with a POTS splitter configuration, you must install a fan tray under each chassis.

Complete the following steps to install the fan tray in the rack:


Step 1   Place the fan tray chassis on a flat and stable surface (for example, a table top).

Step 2   Locate the first fan module and unscrew the thumbscrew that holds the fan module in place (the screw at the top of each fan module), as shown in Figure 14.


Figure 14: Fan Tray Thumbscrews
