Cisco ONT 1031 Setup Quick Start Guide

This document describes the basic process of cabling and configuring the Cisco ONT 1031 Internet access device, which provides optical fiber Ethernet connections to homes and small offices. The Cisco ONT 1031 is configured and managed remotely using the Cisco Ethernet Subscriber Solution Engine (Cisco ESSE). This document is for installation technicians who install Cisco ONT 1031 devices in subscriber environments.

Parts List

Figure 1 shows the items included with the device. If any of the items is missing or damaged, contact your customer service representative.

Preparing to Install the Cisco ONT 1031

The Cisco ONT 1031 is intended to be installed on an exterior wall of a home or small business. Before you begin installing the Cisco ONT 1031, do the following:

1. Verify that the device will be placed within 35 feet of a power outlet and that the power outlet that will supply the device is not controlled by a wall switch. The power cord coming from the power supply may run through a small hole drilled in the wall or out a slightly opened window.

2. Verify that the needed Ethernet wiring for the PC or LAN the user wishes to connect to the Internet is already at or can be extended to the desired mounting site. The Ethernet cable may run through a small hole drilled in the wall, or out a slightly opened window.

3. Verify that optical cabling is already at or can be extended to the desired mounting site.

Ethernet Interfaces

The pinout of the cable connecting the Cisco ONT 1031 and the subscriber's equipment will depend on the type of equipment you need to connect to and the configuration of the Cisco ONT 1031 software. When connecting an MDI¹ interface (such as a PC) to an MDI-X interface, use a straight-through cable. When connecting an MDI-X interface to another MDI-X interface, use a crossover cable.The Cisco ONT 1031 subscriber port has an MDI-X interface, as do most network devices (such as switches).

When the Cisco ONT 1031 is configured to autonegotiate, it can detect which type of interface is on the opposite end of the cable, and it can automatically switch from MDI-X to MDI if it needs to, allowing either type of cable to be used.

Wall-Mounting the Cisco ONT 1031

This procedure tells you how to mount the Cisco ONT 1031 to the outside of a building. After selecting an appropriate place to mount the Cisco ONT 1031, perform the following steps:

Step 2 The top cover is held on by four captive screws. Using a screwdriver, loosen the screws and remove the top cover from the device. Set the top cover aside (see Figure 4).

Step 3 Slide the provided bolts into the wells at each of the four corners of the chassis (well locations are shown in Figure 4).

Step 4 Using a flat-head screwdriver, bolt the wall mounting brackets onto the Cisco ONT 1031 chassis
(see Figure 5). With both brackets have been attached, the unit should look as shown in Figure 6.

Step 5 Using a 1-inch wood screw or other appropriate fastener at each of the remaining four holes on the mounting bracket, fasten the Cisco ONT 1031 to the side of the building.

Connecting Power to the Cisco ONT 1031

Step 2 Run the 33-ft power cord from the power supply to the Cisco ONT 1031 mounting site.

Step 3 Using a crescent wrench, loosen the environmental seal on the right side of the unit. The arrangement of the seals and washers is shown in Figure 7.

Step 4 Run the power cable through the tightener and the washer, then clamp on the rubber environmental seal. See Figure 8.

Step 5 Run the power cable into the Cisco ONT 1031 chassis and plug it into the DC connection, as shown in Figure 9.

Step 6 Verify that the uplink LED shown in Figure 14 lights up. The light indicates that the unit is receiving power.

Step 8 Tighten down the seal, washer, and tightener with your bare fingers. Tighten another one-half turn using a crescent wrench.

The Cisco ONT 1031 now has DC power. Proceed to the next section to connect the subscriber port Ethernet cable to a LAN or PC.

Connecting to the LAN or PC

To connect the subscriber port to the subscriber Ethernet LAN or PC, perform the following steps:

Step 2 Using a crescent wrench, loosen and remove the center environmental seal.

Step 3 As you did with the power connection, run the Ethernet cable through the tightener, washer, and environmental seal.

Step 4 Run the Ethernet cable into the Cisco ONT 1031 chassis, and connect the RJ-45 cable end to the subscriber port as shown in Figure 10.

Step 5 Place an RFI suppressor bead over a portion of the Ethernet cable inside the chassis, and work any slack outside the chassis.

Step 6 Replace the environmental seal, washer, and tightener, and tighten as much as possible using your bare fingers.

Step 7 Using a crescent wrench, tighten the center environmental seal another one-half turn. Do not overtighten the environmental seal.

The Ethernet LAN or PC is now connected to your Cisco ONT 1031. To connect the optical fiber data connection, proceed to the next section.

Connecting the Optical Fiber Ethernet Cable

Step 3 Run the finished optical cable through the tightener, washer, and environmental seal.

Step 4 Run the optical cable into the Cisco ONT 1031 chassis as shown in Figure 12. Be sure to use the cable guides as shown.

Step 6 Connect the optical cable to the optical port inside the Cisco ONT 1031 chassis as shown in Figure 13.

Step 8 Using a crescent wrench, tighten the environmental seal an additional one-half turn. Do not overtighten the environmental seals.

All connections are now complete. To verify that connections are functioning, proceed to the next section.

Verifying the Installation

Two LEDs inside the chassis are provided to verify the uplink and subscriber connections. To verify that the connections are functioning properly, do the following:

If the LED is intermittently flickering or off, there may be a problem with the Ethernet connection, the power cable, or the subscriber Ethernet device. Reseat the cable connections in the chassis and at the LAN or PC and power socket. If the problem persists, replace the Ethernet cable or power cable. The LED will also remain off if the Cisco ONT 1031 is not connected to an Ethernet device (such as a PC or a LAN hub) through the Ethernet cable.

Step 2 Check the uplink LED (see Figure 14). This LED indicates the status of the optical fiber connection.

Step 3 Proceed to the next section to seal the chassis and complete the installation.

Sealing the Cisco ONT 1031

The Cisco ONT 1031 circuitry cannot operate in an open environment; it must be sealed off from rain, hail, other environmental concerns to function properly. To seal the chassis, do the following:

Step 2 Recheck the environmental seals. They should be tight enough that a wrench rather than bare fingers is needed to move the tighteners, and the seals should provide a complete moisture seal around the cables.

Step 3 Align the TOP markings on the cover and chassis, and replace the cover on the front of the unit.

Configuring the Cisco ONT 1031

There is no direct configuration possible for the Cisco ONT 1031. This device was designed to be configured from a central management point using network management software intended specifically for this device ( the Cisco ESSE).

Translated Safety Warnings

The following sections provide translations of safety warnings for the Cisco ONT 1031.

Unterminated Fiber Warning

Warning Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not stare into the beam or view directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm may pose an eye hazard. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Waarschuwing

Er kunnen onzichtbare laserstralen worden uitgezonden vanuit het uiteinde van de onafgebroken vezelkabel of connector. Niet in de straal kijken of deze rechtstreeks bekijken met optische instrumenten. Als u de laseruitvoer met bepaalde optische instrumenten bekijkt (zoals bijv. een oogloep, vergrootgras of microscoop) binnen een afstand van 100 mm kan dit gevaar voor uw ogen opleveren. Het gebruik van regelaars of bijstellingen of het uitvoeren van procedures anders dan opgegeven kan leiden tot blootstelling aan gevaarlijke straling.

Varoitus

Päättämättömän kuitukaapelin tai -liittimen päästä voi tulla näkymätöntä lasersäteilyä. Älä tuijota sädettä tai katso sitä suoraan optisilla välineillä. Lasersäteen katsominen tietyillä optisilla välineillä (esim. suurennuslasilla tai mikroskoopilla) 10 cm:n päästä tai sitä lähempää voi olla vaarallista silmille. Säätimien tai säätöjen käyttö ja toimenpiteiden suorittaminen ohjeista poikkeavalla tavalla voi altistaa vaaralliselle säteilylle.

Attention

Des émissions de radiations laser invisibles peuvent se produire à l'extrémité d'un câble en fibre ou d'un raccord sans terminaison. Ne pas fixer du regard le rayon ou l'observer directement avec des instruments optiques. L'observation du laser à l'aide certains instruments optiques (loupes et microscopes) à une distance inférieure à 100 mm peut poser des risques pour les yeux. L'utilisation de commandes, de réglages ou de procédures autres que ceux spécifiés peut entraîner une exposition dangereuse à des radiations.

Warnung

Eine unsichtbare Laserstrahlung kann vom Ende des nicht angeschlossenen Glasfaserkabels oder Steckers ausgestrahlt werden. Nicht in den Laserstrahl schauen oder diesen mit einem optischen Instrument direkt ansehen. Ein Betrachten des Laserstrahls mit bestimmten optischen Instrumenten, wie z.B. Augenlupen, Vergrößerungsgläsern und Mikroskopen innerhalb eines Abstands von 100 mm kann für das Auge gefährlich sein. Die Verwendung von nicht spezifizierten Steuerelementen, Einstellungen oder Verfahrensweisen kann eine gefährliche Strahlenexposition zur Folge haben.

Avvertenza

L'estremità del connettore o del cavo ottico senza terminazione può emettere radiazioni laser invisibili. Non fissare il raggio od osservarlo in modo diretto con strumenti ottici. L'osservazione del fascio laser con determinati strumenti ottici (come lupette, lenti di ingrandimento o microscopi) entro una distanza di 100 mm può provocare danni agli occhi. L'adozione di controlli, regolazioni o procedure diverse da quelle specificate può comportare il pericolo di esposizione a radiazioni.

Advarsel
