Set up Device on Rack

1. Attach the rack-mount brackets and the cable guides to the router as follows:
a. The router has port-side intake modules, position the router so that its ports are facing the cold aisle.
b. Position the bracket ears facing front or middle rack-mount, on the side of the chassis so that the holes
are aligned.
c. Use four M4 screws to attach the brackets to the chassis.
d. Repeat Steps 1b and 1c with the other rack-mount bracket on the other side of the router.

Ground the Device

Before you connect the power or turn on the power to the device, you must provide an adequate device ground
(earth) connection to your device.
This section describes how to ground the device. The grounding lug location is on the back panel of the device.
1. Verify that the ground cable is connected to the top of the rack and according to local site practice.
Figure 13: Ground Lug
2. Attach one end of the shelf ground cable (#6 AWG cable) to the ground point on the rear of the chassis
using the specified dual-hole lug connector.
• Use a wire-stripping tool to remove approximately 0.75 inches (19 mm) of the covering from the
end of the grounding cable.
• Insert the stripped end of the grounding cable into the open end of the grounding lug.
• Use the crimping tool to secure the grounding cable in the grounding lug.
• Remove the adhesive label from the grounding pad on the chassis.
• Place the grounding lug against the grounding pad so that there is solid metal-to-metal contact, and
insert the two M4 screws with washers through the holes in the grounding lug and into the grounding
pad.
• Ensure that the lug and cable do not interfere with other equipment.
• Prepare the other end of the grounding cable and connect it to an appropriate grounding point in your
site to ensure adequate earth ground.
Install the AC Power Cables

Install the AC Power Cables

To install the AC power cables in the power supply slots:
1. Plug the power supply cord in the power supply module.
2. Insert the power supply cord into the tie [1, 3] and tighten the tie around the power supply cord as shown
in [2, 4] in the figure below.
Figure 14: Attach the AC Power Tie-and-Clip Cord
These images are for only representation purposes. Certain variants of Cisco NCS 540 do not include a tie
for the power supply cord.
Note
Activate an AC Power Supply Module
Perform the following procedure to activate an AC power supply:
Step 1 Plug the power cord into the power supply.
Step 2 Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC-input power source.
Step 3 Verify power supply operation by checking if the respective power supply front panel LED (PS0 or PS1) is green.
Step 4 If the LEDs indicate a power problem, see Troubleshooting for troubleshooting information.
Step 5 If you are also connecting a redundant AC power supply, repeat these steps for the second power source.
If you are connecting a redundant AC power supply, ensure that each power supply is connected to a separate
power source in order to prevent power loss in the event of a power failure.
