AXX 9100 CONNECT R1.2 Quick Reference Guide
1.4.1 Installation Overview
You should be thoroughly familiar with the instructions in this
manual before starting any work. Use the following general order of
work when installing a site:
1. Read and observe all safety cautions and warnings.
2. When you arrive at the site, first verify the AXX 9100 CONNECT
equipment according to the procedures in “Pre-Installation
Procedures” on page 1-1. If there is a problem with the
equipment, use the dedicated contact resources for your support
3. If you do not install the equipment when it arrives, store as
specified in “Pre-Installation Procedures” on page 1-1
4. Unpack equipment only after preparing the site as described in
“Pre-Installation Procedures” on page 1-1
5. When installing equipment at a site, follow the procedures in this
chapter in the order presented.
6. Make connections using the information in “Interconnections and
cable handling” on page 1-20
1.4.2 Installation Planning
Based on the system to be installed, determine the size, number,
and location of racks, as well as the AXX 9100 CONNECT requires.
The AXX 9100 CONNECT will fit in 19-in. equipment racks, and can
be adapted for ETSI racks. The racks must be accessible from the
front and rear for equipment installation.
NOTE! Recommended space of rear access for installation of the
equipment is 300 mm.

Caution!
When installing in an environment where compliance to safety
standard ETS/EN 60950 is required, consider the following:
If not all interconnections can be classified as SELV, the
equipment shelf must only be installed in Restricted Area
Location (RAL) and be permanent connected to safety-ground
via rack or separate ground.
An additionally national requirement apply for Norway, Sweden
and Finland; this equipment must only be installed in Restricted
Area Location (RAL) and be permanent connected to
equipotential bonding.
All interconnected equipment and shielded cabling must be
connected to the same ground potential.
The interfaces cables (especially E1 interfaces) must not run in
the same pipes as the power cables
Plan rack and unit installation based on the following
considerations:
• Install the lowest unit in a rack first. (Recommended clearance
between two units is 50 mm.)
• Determine wire size based on cable length and local engineering
standards and practices.
• Plan the power cable from the power distribution panel (PDP) to
units, proceeding down along the right side of the equipment
rack.
• Plan grounding cable runs from the ground window down along
the right side of the rack to the units.
• Plan to route the electrical cables to and from the units along the
right side of the rack to the overhead cable transport tray.
• Plan to route the optical cables to and from the units along the left
side of the rack to the overhead cable transport tray.
1.4.2.1 Recommended items
To install an AXX 9100 CONNECT system, customary installation
and electrical tools are required. The following items are also
recommended:

generated heat on the AXX 9100 CONNECT system equipment.
• Make sure the equipment rack is properly bolted to the ground
and, if required, to the ceiling.
• Ensure that the weight of the equipment does not make the rack
unstable.
• When mounting the equipment between two posts or rails,
ensure that the minimum clearance between the sides is 19 “.
• Maintain a minimum clearance of 500 mm in front of the
equipment and 300 mm at the back of the equipment.
1.4.4 Grounding Considerations
We recommend a proper grounding of the AXX 9100 CONNECT
independent on safety requirements. The AXX 9100 CONNECT
may be connected to ground with the yellow/green wire in the power

connection of the chassis to ground.
For location of the power connector on the AXX 9100 CONNECT,
see Figure 1
Figure 1 Location of the power connector on the AXX 9100 CONNECT
1.4.5 Power Interfaces
The AXX 9100 CONNECT DC-power interface comply with
ETSI/EN 300 132-2, with a nominal source voltage of -48VDC or -
60VDC. This covers the a voltage range from -40VDC to -72VDC.
If installed outside a RAL, use a power source with a maximum
voltage of -60VDC.
1.5 AXX 9100 CONNECT Installation
Use the following procedures to install the AXX 9100 CONNECT in
an equipment rack.
When installing the AXX 9100 CONNECT, you can also use the
extension brackets, included in the AXX 9100 CONNECT accessory
kit, to convert a 19-inch rack to a ETSI rack.

1.5.2 Requirements to Installation Locations
1.5.2.1 Installation in Restricted Access Location (RAL)
When installed in a telecommunication centre, the AXX 9100
CONNECT must be properly mounted in a grounded rack with
brackets or in other ways properly connected to safety ground. The
AXX 9100 CONNECT DC power source must not be located outside
the RAL.
1.5.2.2 Installation outside Restricted Access Location
If installed outside a RAL area, the AXX 9100 CONNECT - 48V DC
power source and all communication interfaces connected must
comply to SELV circuits requirements. The -48V DC power must not
exceed -60V DC, and must be powered from an certified AC to DC
power supply unit or a battery unit.
1.5.2.3 Definitions
Restricted Access Location (RAL)
A location for equipment where both of the following paragraphs
apply:
• access can only be gained by service persons or by users who
have been instructed about the reasons for the restrictions
applied to the location and about any precautions that shall be
taken; and
• access is through the use of a Tool or lock and key, or other
means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible
for the location.
SELV Circuits
SELV Circuits are ports that have maximum DC working voltage
level less than 60Volt (42.4V AC). In addition, the ports must not be
connected to telecommunication networks in the EN 60950 meaning

11
3/1531-ZAP 701 14/1 Uen A 2006-10-16
AXX 9100 CONNECT R1.2 Quick Reference Guide
of the term (see CEI/ IEC 60950-1 2001-10 standard clause
1.2.13.8).
In practice, the electrical cables shall not exit the building. In
addition, the electrical cables shall connect to equipment that either:
• are installed in RAL or
• shall not have electrical cables that exits the building unless
those ports are TNV circuits or
• shall have a written consent or in other ways evident that its
connecting port towards the SELV circuit port is not a
telecommunication network.
Telecommunication Network
A metallically terminated transmission medium intended for
communication between equipment that may be located in separate
buildings, excluding:
• the mains system for supply, transmission and distribution of
electrical power, if used as a telecommunication transmission
medium;
• Cable Distribution System;
• SELV Circuits connecting units of information technology
equipment.
TNV Circuit
A circuit which is in the equipment and to which the accessible area
of contact is limited and that is so designed and protected that,
under normal operating conditions and single fault conditions (see
CEI/IEC 60950-1 2001-10 standard clause 1.4.14), the voltages do
not exceed specified limit values.
1.6 Installation of Power
This section consists of procedures to explain how to install AXX
9100 CONNECT power connections.

Common safety precautions
Caution!
Static electricity can damage electronic equipment. While
unpacking and handling electronic modules, wear a grounding
wrist strap to discharge the static buildup. Grounding wrist
straps are designed to prevent equipment damage caused by
static electricity. Before making the necessary interconnections,
connect the grounding wrist strap.
NOTE! To prevent equipment damage and injury, do not reverse the
polarity of the AXX 9100 CONNECT power connections.
Warning!
The plug-socket combination must be accessible at all times,
because it serves as the main disconnecting device.

1.7 Installation of Service modules
1.7.1 General
This chapter describes installation procedures that are common to,
and independent of, the Service module type.
The Service Modules is described in the AXX 9100 CONNECT
Technical Reference.
Interconnections and cabling are descibed in “Interconnections and
cable handling” on page 1-20.
NOTE! Insertion or withdrawal of new modules does not affect the
other modules.
No manual configuration is needed, if a module is replaced
with a module of the same type.
All modules store inventory data in non-volatile memory. The
inventory data is accessible from the system controller and the
management system.
All modules contain a LED that indicates the status of the module.
See “LED - Module failure” on page 1-18.
All modules supports hot insertion and removal. When a module
shall be replaced the switch shall be activated and the user must
wait for the LED to extinguish before the module is removed. It is
also possible to deactivate the module from the AXX 9820 CRAFT
terminal. A special tool, the Card Extraction Tool is needed to
activate this switch., see Figure 8
