Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic printed circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing cards. Ensure that the chassis is electrically connected to earth ground. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground. To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must be used correctly. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.


Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohm).

Required Tools and Equipment

This kit includes the following items:

To install the Cisco RPS adapter plate, you will also need the following tools and equipment (which are not included):

After installing the Cisco RPS adapter plate, you must connect it to the RPS, as described in "Connecting to the RPS" section.

Removing the Cover

You must remove the Cisco uBR914 chassis cover to access the internal power supply.


Warning Do not touch the power supply when the power cord is connected. For systems with a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply even when the power switch is OFF and the power cord is connected. For systems without a power switch, line voltages are present within the power supply when the power cord is connected.


Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position.

To remove the chassis cover:


Step 1 Power OFF the Cisco uBR914 DSU.

Step 2 Disconnect the power cable from the back panel of the Cisco uBR914 DSU.

Step 6 Continue on with the next section to replace the cover on the Cisco uBR914 DSU.


Replacing the Cover

To replace the cover:


Step 1 Position the two chassis sections, as shown in Figure 2.

Step 2 Referring to Figure 2, press the two chassis sections together and ensure the following:


Caution To fit the two sections together, it might be necessary to work them together at one end and then the other, working back and forth; however, use care to prevent bending of the chassis edges.

Step 3 When the two sections fit together snugly, slide the chassis top so until it fits into the front bezel.

Step 4 Replace the cover screws. Tighten the screws to no more than 8 or 9 inch-pounds of torque.

Step 5 Reinstall the chassis in the rack, within four feet of the Cisco RPS that will provide power for it.

Step 6 Reconnect all cables except the power cable. Proceed to the next section to connect the Cisco uBR914 DSU to the RPS.


Connecting to the RPS

The Cisco uBR914 DSU can be connected to the RPS in either a quasi-redundant or fully-redundant configuration using the cables shown in Table 1.


Table 1: RPS Cables for Use with the Cisco uBR910 DSU
Redundancy Configuration Cable Description Cable Order Number

Quasi-redundant

One-to-one cable, 22-pin to 18-pin, 4 feet (1.22 m)1

CAB-RPS-2218=

Fully redundant

Two-to-one cable, 22-pin to 18-pin, 4 feet (1.22 m)1

CAB-RPSY-2218=

1The cables come in only one length. Custom cable lengths are not available. Excessive voltage drop and marginal or failed operation can occur with cables of different lengths. Use of cables other than the ones listed can cause damage to the RPS and Cisco uBR914 DSU.

Power Considerations

Before connecting the RPS to the Cisco uBR914 DSU, read the power warnings below. Cisco recommends that you disconnect all power from the Cisco RPS before beginning. However, if another external device is already connected to the Cisco RPS, you can connect the Cisco uBR914 DSU without interrupting power to the Cisco RPS and other device by connecting your cable to the Cisco RPS first and then to the Cisco uBR914 DSU.


Warning Attach only the Cisco RPS (model PWR600-AC-RPS) to the RPS receptacle.


Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position.


Warning Before working on a system that has an On/off switch, turn OFF the power and unplug the power cord.


Warning The Cisco RPS might have more than one power cord. To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the two power supply cords before servicing the unit.

Connecting the Cisco uBR914 DSU to the RPS

To connect the Cisco uBR914 DSU to the Cisco RPS:


Step 1 Verify that the RPS adapter plate has been correctly installed in the Cisco uBR914 DSU, as described in "Installing the Redundant Power Supply Adapter Plate" section.

Step 2 Connect the 18-pin end of the one-to-one cable or Y-cable to the RPS connector on the rear panel of the Cisco uBR914 DSU (see Figure 11).

Step 3 Connect the other end of the one-to-one or Y-cable to any available 22-pin connector on the rear panel connector on the Cisco RPS, as shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13.


Figure 12: Connecting a One-to-One Cable for Quasi-Redundant Power



Figure 13:
Connecting a Two-to-One Y-Cable for Fully Redundant Power


Step 4 On the rear panel of the Cisco RPS, connect an AC power cable to either or both of the power connectors. Use the cable locks on the Cisco RPS to lock the cables in place. See Figure 14.


Figure 14: Connecting the AC Power Cables to the Cisco RPS


Step 5 Connect the other end of each Cisco RPS AC power cable into a grounded AC power outlet.

Step 6 Power up the Cisco RPS. There is a separate power switch for each AC power supply. If using two AC power cables, make sure each power switch is turned ON. See Figure 15.


Figure 15: Powering Up the Cisco RPS


Step 7 Power on the Cisco uBR914 DSU by turning its power switch to the ON (|) position.

The Cisco RPS is on and provides power to the external device in 10 to 15 seconds. The RPS is working properly when its front-panel LEDs are solid green. When the RPS is supplying power to the Cisco uBR914 DSU, the LED labeled RPS on the front panel of the Cisco uBR914 DSU is on.



Note If the external device does not power up, see the Cisco RPS Hardware Installation Guide , available on CCO and the Documentation CD-ROM.
