1 Overview
The UfiSpace S9500-22XST is a high-performance, versatile open networking white box
router that is designed to address the changing needs of backhaul transport requirements
as Telecoms make the transition from legacy technologies towards 5G. It enables telecoms
and service providers to deploy disaggregated open network infrastructure to lower costs
and rapidly scale existing services for edge computing, mobile backhaul, and broadband
access applications.
The S9500-22XST is future-proofed with a powerful quad-core processor, 22 high-speed
interfaces, and full timing features supporting IEEE 1588v2 and SyncE. It is suitable for both
indoor and outdoor deployments with redundant, hot-swappable components for
convenience, increased availability, reliability and lower costs of maintenance.
This document describes the hardware installation process for S9500-22XST.

2.2 InstallaonEnvironmentRequirements
•Power Reserve: The S9500-22XST power supply is available with:
1. DC Version: 1+1 active-active -48 voltage DC power supply field replaceable unit. or;
2. AC Version: 1+1 active-active universal 100-240V AC power supply field replaceable unit.
To ensure the active/active feed power design functions properly, a field with dual power
circuit is recommend and a reserve of at least 200 watts on each power circuit.
•Space Clearance: The S9500-22XST chassis width is 17.32 inches and shipped with a rack
mount kit and adjustable mounting rails suitable for 19 inch (48.3cm) wide racks. The depth
of the S9500-22XST chassis is 11.89 (30.2cm) inches without the field replaceable units
(FRUs). The handle of fan FRU is 1 inch (2.54cm) and the handle for the PSU FRU is 1.5
inches (3.81cm), therefore, a minimum space clearance of 2 inches (5.08cm) required on the
side with the fan FRUs and PSU FRUs. A total minimum reserve depth of 15.89 inches
(40.36cm) is required.

6 InstallingFanModules
The fan modules are hot swappable eld replaceable units, which can be replaced while the
router is operang as long as the remaining four modules are installed and in operaon. The
fans come pre-installed and the following steps are instrucons on how to install a new fan
module.
1. Loosen the capve screw located on the fan before pulling out the fan

The power supply unit (PSU) is a eld replaceable unit and can be replaced while the router
is operating as long as the remaining (second) PSU is installed and in operation. The PSUs
comes pre-installed and the following are instructions on how to install a new PSU.

Figure22.
Caution
Shock hazard!
Disconnect all power inputs from the power supply unit before servicing.
1. Press and hold down the release tab located on the PSU inward to unlock the old PSU
from the power bay.
2. While holding down the tab, grip the handle located on the PSU and gently pull the old
PSU out of the power bay.

8 Grounding the Router
Warning
This equipment must be grounded. Do not defeat the ground conductor or operate
the equipment without a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate
Warning electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain about
whether your equipment has been correctly grounded.
1. Before grounding the router chassis, ensure that the rack is properly grounded and in
compliance with local regulatory guidelines. Ensure that a good electrical connection to
the grounding point exists and remove any paint or materials that may prevent good
grounding contact.
2. Strip the insulation from a size #6 AWG ground wire (not provided within the package
contents), leaving 0.5” +/-0.02” (12.7mm +/-0.5mm) of exposed grounding wire.
3. Insert the exposed grounding wire all the way into the hole of the ground lug (provided
with package contents).
4. Using a crimping tool, firmly secure the grounding wire to the ground lug.

It is recommended that equipment changes be done on a grounded rack system. This will
reduce or prevent the risk of shock hazards, equipment damage, and potential of data
corruption.
The router can be grounded from the router chassis and/or the power supply units (PSUs).
When grounding the PSUs, ensure that both PSUs are grounded at the same time in case
one of them is removed. The grounding wire is not provided with the package contents. M4
screws and washers are provided with the package contents. For convenience, there are two
locations in which the ground lug may be secured onto the router chassis.
The following instructions are for grounding the router chassis.

S9500-22XST Hardware Installation Guide | 17
5. Locate the designated location for securing the grounding lug, which is located on the
side of the router chassis.
6. Using 2 M4 screws and 4 washers (provided with the package contents), firmly lock the
ground lug to either of the designated grounding locations on the router chassis.
