Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco ONS 15530
Chassis-Lifting Guidelines
Caution Use extreme care when removing or installing connectors so you do not damage the connector housing
or scratch the end-face surface of the fiber. Always install protective covers on unused or disconnected
components to prevent contamination. Always clean fiber connectors before installing them.
Unpacking and Inspecting the Shelf
The Cisco ONS 15530 comes with the standard mounting set. The shelf is thoroughly inspected before
shipment. If any damage has occurred during transportation or if any item is missing, notify your Cisco
customer service representative immediately.
Upon receipt, inspect the equipment as follows:
Step 1 Take inventory.
Compare the equipment inside with the packing slip and the equipment list provided by customer
service. If there are any discrepancies, notify the Customer Service Center.
Step 2 Check for external damage.
Visually check all components and immediately report any shipping damage to your customer service
representative. Have the following information ready:
•Invoice number of shipper (see packing slip)
•Model and serial number of the damaged unit
•Description of damage
•Effect of damage on the installation
Keep a record of all of your hardware, configuration options, and network settings.
Mounting the Shelf
The unit is designed for rack-mounting in a cabinet rack. Use star-type lock washers on the rack screws
to ensure a good conductive connection between the chassis and the rack. For information about
installing the units in a customer cabinet, see the instructions from the cabinet manufacturer.
Chassis-Lifting Guidelines
The fully configured system weighs approximately 71 pounds. The chassis is not intended to be moved
frequently. Before you install the system, ensure that your site is properly prepared so you can avoid
having to move the chassis later to accommodate power sources and network connections.
Two or more people are required to lift the chassis. Each time you lift the chassis or any heavy object,
follow these guidelines:
•Never attempt to lift the chassis by yourself. Because of the size and weight of the chassis, use at
least two people to safely lift and move it without causing injury or damaging the equipment.
•Ensure that your footing is solid, and balance the weight of the chassis between your feet.

OL-7706-01
Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco ONS 15530 Chassis-Lifting Guidelines
•Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.
•Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift the
chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your back muscles.
•Do not remove installed components from the chassis.
•Always disconnect all external cables before lifting or moving the chassis.
To safely lift the chassis, follow these steps:
Warning Two people are required to lift the chassis. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with
your legs, not your back.
Step 1 Each person should stand on either side of the chassis, and place one hand under the air intake at the
bottom front of the chassis.
Step 2 With the other hand, grasp the handle on the chassis and carefully lift the chassis as shown in Figure 2-1
and Figure 2-2.

Cisco ONS 15530 Hardware Installation Guide
OL-7706-01
Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco ONS 15530 Rack-Mounting the Shelf
General Rack-Mount Installation Guidelines
When planning your rack-mount installation, consider the following guidelines:
•Allow a minimum of 11 rack units (17.7 inches or 45.0 cm) of vertical rack space for the
Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-E chassis with the air ramp baffle. The Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-N
chassis requires a minimum of 9 rack units (15.7 inches or 39.9 cm) of vertical rack space. Measure
the proposed rack location before mounting the chassis in the rack.
Note The Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-E chassis cannot be installed in a 19-inch rack.
•Check for obstructions (such as a power strip) that could impair rack-mount installation before using
a particular rack. If a power strip does impair a rack-mount installation, remove the power strip
before installing the chassis, and then replace it after the chassis is installed.
•Allow sufficient clearance around the rack for maintenance. If the rack is mobile, you can push it
back near a wall or cabinet for normal operation and pull it out for maintenance (installing or moving
line cards, connecting cables, or replacing or upgrading components). Otherwise, allow 19 inches
(48.3 cm) of clearance to remove FRUs (field replaceable units).
•Maintain a minimum clearance of 3 inches (7.62 cm) on the front, top, and sides of the chassis for
the cooling air inlet and exhaust ports, respectively. Avoid placing the chassis in an overly congested
rack or directly next to another equipment rack; otherwise, the heated exhaust air from other
equipment can enter the inlet air vents and cause an over temperature condition inside the chassis.
Caution To prevent chassis overheating, never install a Cisco ONS 15530 in an enclosed rack or room
that is not properly ventilated or air conditioned.
Caution Always install the air ramp baffle below the Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-E.
•Always install heavier equipment in the lower half of a rack to maintain a low center of gravity to
prevent the rack from falling over.
•Install and use the cable-management brackets included with the Cisco ONS 15530 to keep cables
organized and out of the way of the line cards and CPU switch modules. Ensure that cables from
other equipment already installed in the rack do not impair access to the line cards, or require you
to disconnect cables unnecessarily to perform equipment maintenance or upgrades.
•Install rack stabilizers (if available) before you mount the chassis.
•Provide an adequate chassis ground (earth) connection for your chassis.
Flush-Mounting the Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-N in a 19-Inch Rack
The Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-N can be flush-mounted in a 19-inch equipment rack using the
rack-mounting kit provided with your system. The rack-mounting kit contains the following parts:
•Two mounting brackets and screws
•Cable management brackets
•Optional 23-inch rack-mount brackets

Rack-Mounting the Shelf
Note The Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-E chassis cannot be installed in a 19-inch rack.
Warning At least three people are required to mount the chassis in the equipment rack: two people are needed
to hold the chassis in place while a third person tightens the mounting screws. When handling the
chassis,alwaysfollowproperliftingpracticesasoutlinedinthe“Chassis-LiftingGuidelines”section
on page 2-2.
To flush-mount the Cisco ONS 15530 CHAS-N chassis in a 19-inch equipment rack, follow these steps :
Step 1 Attach the mounting brackets to the shelf (see Figure 2-3).
Step 2 Lift the shelf into position between the rack posts (requires two people).
Step 3 Align the mounting bracket holes with the rack post holes (see Figure 2-4) and attach the shelf to the
rack (performed by the third person).

Installing the Fiber Routing Tray
To install the fiber routing tray, follow these steps:
Step 1 Place the fiber routing tray (2) over the fan assembly, ensuring that the fan assembly can be accessed
when the fiber routing tray is locked (1 and 2) in the raised position. (See Figure 2-10.)
Figure 2-10 Raising the Fiber Routing Tray
Step 2 Secure the fiber routing tray to the rack with four 12-24 screws, two on each side.
Step 3 Hold the fiber routing drawer with both hands and position it in the rack beneath the chassis.
(See Figure 2-9.)
Step 4 Align the mounting holes on the bracket with the mounting holes in the equipment rack.
Step 5 Install the 12-24 or 10-32 screws through the elongated holes in the brackets and into the threaded holes
in the mounting post. Repeat this step for the other side.

Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco ONS 15530 Installing and Removing Line Cards or Motherboards
Preventing ESD Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage occurs when electronic cards or components are mishandled and
can result in complete or intermittent failures. Note the following guidelines before you install or service
the system:
•Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap when handling electronic components. Connect
one end of the strap to an ESD jack or an unpainted metal component on the system (such as a
captive installation screw).
•Handle cards by the faceplates and edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit board and
connector pins.
•Place any removed component on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding bag.
•Avoid contact between the cards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects the card from ESD
voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
Note For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be
between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).
Installing and Removing Line Cards or Motherboards
The line cards and modules used on the Cisco ONS 15530 are hot-swappable. This section describes the
procedures for installing and removing the following line cards and motherboards from the chassis:
•ESCON aggregation cards
•4-port 1-Gbps/2-Gbps FC aggregation cards
•8-port FC/GE aggregation cards
•8-port multi-service muxponders
•2.5-Gbps ITU trunk cards
•10-Gbps ITU trunk cards
•10-Gbps ITU tunable trunk cards
•10-Gbps uplink cards
•Transponder line cards
