Cisco ASR 5500 Installation guide

Installation Procedure Overview
This chapter briefly describes the steps and tools that are required to install the ASR 5500 chassis.
The copper serial Console port, 1000Base-T management ports, and CO alarm interface of the ASR 5500
are suitable for connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. These ports MUST NOT
be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the outside plant (OSP) or its wiring. These interfaces
are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in
GR-1089-CORE, Issue 5) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary
Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

Installation Sequence
Installation of the ASR 5500 requires the completion of the following procedures:
1Unpack the chassis and cards.
2Determine which chassis mounting option to use: flush or mid-mount. Reposition the mounting brackets
if necessary.
3Install the chassis into a standard 19-inch equipment rack or telecommunications cabinet.
4Connect the chassis ground point to site ground.
5Optional: Install the Cable Management System.
6Install SSC and FSC cards into the front of the chassis.
7Install MIO/UMIO cards and DPC/UDPCs or DPC2/UDPC2s into the rear of the chassis.

8Connect data cables to the local and external ports.
9Connect power cables to the PFU terminals at the top rear of the chassis.
10 Apply power to the chassis.
11 Verify that the system powers up successfully.
The actual sequence for completing some of the above procedures may be adapted to suit local requirements
and the availability of resources. For example, power cabling may be completed before circuit cards are
installed in the chassis. However, the chassis must always be grounded immediately after being mounted in
the rack or cabinet.
For personal safety and to minimize the risk of equipment damage, power must not be applied to the
chassis until all other procedures have been completed.
Caution
Required Tools and Equipment
This section lists the tools and equipment needed for installation.
Hand Tools
The following hand tools are required for installation of the chassis circuit cards and PFUs:
•Cable/wire stripping tool –used to prepare the ends of power and ground cables for attachment to
two-hole lugs.
•Knife, scissors or tin snips to cut shipping straps on the chassis container.
•Panduit crimping tool with 4 AWG die –used to crimp two-hole lugs on the ends of power feed cables.
•Phillips #2 and #1 screwdrivers –used to tighten thumb-screws on cards, fan trays, PFUs, and mounting
brackets.
•7/16-inch nut driver or ratchet and socket set –used to connect power and return, as well as chassis
grounding cable lugs to PFU terminals.
•Torque wrench (rated 50 in-lb [5.65 N-m]) with 7/16-inch socket for tightening lugs to power terminals.
•Grounding wrist and/or heel straps for prevention of Electro-Static Discharge (ESD).
The inappropriate use of electric or pneumatic torque drivers, or power drill/impact drivers to loosen or
tighten fasteners may result in damage to system components.
Caution
During installation, maintenance, and/or removal, wear a grounding wrist strap connected to the ASR
5500 chassis to avoid ESD damage to the components. Failure to do so could result in damage to sensitive
electronic components and potentially void your warranty.

Installation Procedure Overview
Required Tools and Equipment

Equipment
The following equipment is necessary to install the chassis and verify that it is ready for configuration:
•Standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) equipment rack (4-post or 2-post) or telecommunications cabinet with
mounting hardware. The rack/cabinet must be installed in accordance with OEM recommendations
and local practices for electrical/grounding and seismic conditions.
•Multiple -48 VDC power feeds terminated at the rack/cabinet.
•Voltmeter to measure input voltages at the PFU terminals.
•Heat gun for installing shrink wrap tubing over power cable lugs.
•Computer with a DB9 RS-232C serial port or a terminal server port that will connect to the RJ45 Console
port on the chassis management MIO/UMIO cards for accessing the Command Line Interface (CLI).
•Pallet jack and/or chassis lift to move and position the ASR 5500 chassis. Without such mechanical
assistance, moving and positioning the chassis will require multiple craftpersons trained to safely handle
heavy rack-mounted units.
Site Prerequisites
This section summarizes power, grounding, environment, and clearance requirements that must be met prior
to installing and operating the ASR 5500. For detailed information, refer to the Technical Specifications
chapter.
Power and Grounding
Each PFU requires eight power feeds of 80A @ -48VDC (nominal). The feeds should be routed to the
installation rack from the site power supply using adequately sized conductors and circuit breakers in accordance
with local electrical codes. For additional information on power requirements, see the Technical Specifications
chapter.
The chassis must be grounded to a site ground point using the recommended conductors and lugs. The ground
point should be in close proximity to the ASR 5500 chassis to assure adequate conductivity.
Environment
The site's heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems must be sized to maintain the operating
temperatures and relative humidity specified in the Technical Specifications chapter. HVAC capacity
requirements will vary based on the system configuration and associated power draw, as well as the operational
characteristics of other equipment installed at the site.

Installation Procedure Overview
Equipment

Clearance
Adequate clearance must be maintained at the front and rear of the ASR 5500 chassis to assure proper air
flow and allow maintenance access for the installation, removal and replacement of components. The
recommended clearance is 36 inches (92 centimeters) at the front and rear of the chassis.
ESD Precautions
Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to the chassis, its sub-components and/or the cards
installed in the chassis. To prevent damage from ESD, you must take proper grounding precautions before
handling the chassis or any of its components.
The chassis and its mounting brackets are equipped with ESD jacks (see the figure below). Use the jacks in
conjunction with grounding wrist straps when handling the chassis and/or its components. The following
figure shows the location of the jacks.

Installation Procedure Overview
Clearance

Before the you can use the ESD jacks on the ASR 5500 chassis and its mounting brackets, you must first
connect the chassis to ground according to the instructions in the Chassis Installation chapter of this document.
