Adding and Removing Devices

This chapter describes the procedures for adding and replacing devices in the Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system.

The chapter contains the following sections:

Safety Warnings

Read the following warnings carefully before performing any of the procedures outlined in this chapter:

Warning This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas. A restricted access area is where access can only gained by service personnel through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or replace this equipment.
Warning The ports labeled "Ethernet," "10BaseT," "Token Ring," "Console," and "AUX" are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Because the BRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits.
Warning This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use.
Warning Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
Warning We recommend that four people work together to roll the unit down the ramp and to the installation site. By using four people, one positioned at each corner of the unit, you assure the maximum control and facility in moving the unit. The minimum number of people that should be assigned to moving the unit is
four ---any fewer and genuine risk and peril to man and equipment may ensue.
Warning The cabinet has a high center of gravity. Use care when moving it.

Caution Every time that you change the number of installed Access  Server  Shelves in the system, you must reconfigure every installed Access  Server  Shelf (including those previously configured).

Special Procedure for Fully Populated Cisco AccessPath Model 531 Systems

Cisco AccessPath Model 531 systems equipped with 8-PRI-based Access Server Shelves have four patch panels installed in the system cabinet. This allows the system cabinet to contain only 13 Access Server Shelves. The High-End/Extended cabinet in a fully equipped Cisco AccessPath Model 531 systems contains eight Access Server Shelves.

The Access  Server  Shelves in the High-End/Extended cabinet are installed in their normal configuration (AS15 - AS21, numbered from the bottom up). The twenty-first Access  Server  Shelf (AS14) is installed at the top of the High-End Extended cabinet.

The twenty-first Access Server Shelf (AS14) installed in the High-End/Extended cabinet must be cabled to connectors J13 and J14 on the signal harness in the primary cabinet. The following two types of extension cables are required to connect Access Server Shelf (AS14) in the High-End/Extended cabinet to the signal harness in the primary cabinet:

Warning The ports labeled Ethernet, 10BaseT, Serial, Console, and AUX contain safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. PRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. Avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the TNV circuits.

Note See "Installing an Access Server Shelf" for additional information on installing an Access Server Shelf.

Perform the following steps to add an Access  Server  Shelf to your system:

Step 1 Unkit your Access  Server  Shelf package and set the cables near the system for easy installation.

Step 2 Fasten the mounting brackets on the Access  Server  Shelf.

Step 3 If your system is configured for DC  power, use the two screws (48-0415-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the ground lugs on the left of the Access  Server  Shelf.

Step 4 Align the Access  Server  Shelf at the top of the High-End Extended cabinet below the patch panels and slide the Access  Server  Shelf into the rack-space until the mounting brackets contact the cabinet mounting rails. Do not attempt to force the Access  Server  Shelf beyond this point.

Step 5 Fasten the Access  Server  Shelf to the cabinet mounting rails.

Step 6 Connect the 72-1463-xx console/Ethernet cable.

Connect the three RJ-45 connectors on the cable to the following ports on the Access Server Shelf:

Step 7 Connect the 72-1492-xx 8-PRI cable.

Connect the eight RJ-45 connectors on the cable to the Access  Server  Shelf ports 0 through 7 (AS_PRI  0 through AS_PRI  7).

Step 8 Connect the DB-36 and DB-25 extension cables to cables 72-1492-xx and 72-1463-xx.

Step 9 Route the cables down the cabinet and out through the cable slot at the bottom of the cabinet.

Step 10 Route the cables across and into the cable slot at the bottom of the primary cabinet.

Step 11 Route the cables up to connectors J13 and J14.

Step 12 Connect the DB-36 connector on the extension cable to signal harness connector J13 in the primary cabinet.

Step 13 Connect the DB-25 connector on the extension cable to signal harness connector J14 in the primary cabinet.

Warning Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
Warning    The Ethernet 10BaseT, serial, console, and auxiliary ports contain safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. PRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. Avoid connecting SELV circuits to TNV circuits.

Step 14 Regarding power connection: you can leave the fuses installed or the breakers closed (as applies to your system) at this point. If you do so, your system can remain operable through this entire installation.

For the highest degree of safety, Cisco recommends that you:

Step 15 If your system is configured for DC  power, use the two screws (48-0395-xx) to attach the ground lug cable to the tap angle.

Step 16 Connect the power cable:

For AC  power:

For DC  power:

Step 17 Turn the Access Server power ON.

Step 18 If you performed Step 9:

Step 19 Install any additional Access  Server  Shelves following Step 1  through  Step 18.

Caution Every time that you change the number of installed Access  Server  Shelves in the system, you must reconfigure every installed Access  Server  Shelf (including those previously configured).

Removing the Switch  Shelf

If you are permanently removing the Switch  Shelf, the Switch  Shelf functionality is replaced by a Cisco  PA-12E switch module located in the Router  Shelf. You must therefore integrate a Cisco  PA-12E switch module with your system according to the procedure in "Installing the Cisco PA-12E/2FE Ethernet Switch Module".

Appendix B describes specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to remove the Switch  Shelf from your system:

Step 1 Power OFF the Switch  Shelf.

Step 2 Remove the power cables that connect the Switch  Shelf to the AC  power  strip or DC  busbar. Set the power cables aside.

Step 3 Remove the three cables that connect the Switch  Shelf to the cable harness. Remove each connector and place the cables with the power cable that you removed.

Step 4 Remove the four  screws that hold the switch shelf to the chassis. (See Figure 3-10.)

Figure 3-23: Aligning and Installing the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter in Slot  1 of the Router  Shelf


Step 3 If you must connect and activate the port adapter to the Cisco  AccessPath-TS3  system, see "Connecting the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX)" below.

Connecting the Fast Ethernet Port Adapter (PA-FE-TX)

A Fast Ethernet port adapter (PA-FE-TX) is already installed in every Cisco  AccessPath-TS3  system Entry-level configuration. Because it is not connected when the system is shipped, the port adapter is inoperable.

This port adapter has an RJ-45 cable connector that is part of a cable assembly already in use.

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform the following steps to connect the Fast Ethernet port adapter:

Step 1 Locate the 72-1465-xx cable and cut the cable tie.

Step 2 Connect the unused RJ-45 cable leg into the Ethernet port in slot  1 on the Router  Shelf.


Figure 3-24: Fast Ethernet Port Adapter Fully Connected to the Cable Harness


Disconnecting the Ethernet Switch Module (PA-12E/2FE) from the Router  Shelf


Note Disconnecting the RJ-45 functionally removes the Fast Ethernet port adapter from the system. You should not remove it from the slot unless you are transplanting or shipping the port adapter.

Appendix B provides specifications for all Cisco AccessPath Model 531 system cables.

Perform Step 1 and Step 2 to disconnect the Ethernet switch module (PA-12E/2FE) in slots 3 and 4 of the Router  Shelf (see Figure 3-25 and Figure 3-26):
