NOTE

  • Figures in the document are for reference only and may be different from actual devices.
  • When installing a device in a cabinet, ensure that at least 1U space is reserved above and below the device for appropriate heat dissipation.
  • The airflow direction of power and fan modules must be the same as that of the device to which they will be installed. For example, power and fan modules to be installed on a device that adopts port-side air intake must also utilize this type of airflow, and the labels on these modules are red. Likewise, power and fan modules to be installed on a device that adopts port-side air exhaust must
    also utilize this type of exhaust, and the labels on these modules are blue

2 Safety Guidelines

Observe all safety regulations and precautions

  • To ensure personal and equipment safety, observe all the safety precautions on the equipment and in this document. and items do not cover allthe safety precautions and are only supplementary to the safety precautions.
  • Follow all the safety precautions and instructions provided by Huawei. The safety precautions outlined in this document are only requirements of Huawei and do not cover general safety regulations.
    Huawei is not liable for any consequence that results from violation of regulations pertaining to safe operations or safety codes pertaining to design, production, and equipment use.

Personnel Safety

Only trained and qualified personnel are allowed to install, operate, or maintain the equipment. Familiarize yourself with all safety
precautions before performing any operation on the equipment.

DANGER

  • Do not install or remove the equipment or power cables while power is on.
  • To ensure equipment and personal safety, ground the equipment before powering it on.

WARNING

Laser beams will cause eye damage. Do not look into bores of optical modules or optical fibers without eye protection.

NOTICE

  • Keep an unpacked device upright and handle it with care when carrying it or installing it into a cabinet.
  • Do not touch unpainted surfaces of the equipment with wet or contaminated gloves.

ESD protection

Before installing, operating, or maintaining the  equipment, wear an ESD wrist strap and insert the other end into the ESD jack on the chassis or cabinet. Remove conductive objects like
jewelry and watches to prevent damages to the equipment caused by electrostatic discharge.

3 Site Requirements

  • The routers must be used indoors. To ensure normal operations and long service life of the router, the installation site must meet the following requirements:

  • The equipment must be installed in a clean, dry, and well ventilated standard equipment room where temperature can be controlled within a proper range. The equipment room must be free from
    leaking or dripping water, heavy dew, and humidity.

  • Take dustproof measures in the equipment room. Dust will cause electrostatic charges on the chassis and affect connections of metal connectors and joints. This shortens equipment service life and may
    cause failures of the router.

  • The installation site must be free from acidic, alkaline, or other corrosive gases.

  • The temperature and humidity in the installation site must be within allowed ranges.

5 Power Supply Requirements

For hierarchical power supply protection, the current of each circuit breaker must be at least 16 A when the router adopts AC power supply. Similarly, the current of each circuit breaker must be at least 50 A if the router adopts DC power supply.

4 Cabinet Requirements

  • Huawei A610 cabinets are recommended. A self-purchased cabine must meet the following requirements:

  • A 19-inch standard cabinet must be used, with a depth of greater than or equal to 800 mm (23.62 in.)
    For a cabinet with doors, reserve at least 110 mm clearance between the device’s front panel and the cabinet’s front door, and at least 100 mm clearance between the device’s rear panel and the
    cabinet’s rear door. Note that the 110 mm clearance applies to scenarios where there is no optical attenuator and the optical fibers’
    LC connectors are 42 mm long at most. If there are optical attenuators and the length of the optical fibers’ LC connectors is greater than 42 mm, the clearance is 110 mm plus the cable routing space for the optical attenuators and optical fibers.

  • Each cabinet door must have 50% or higher porosity.

  • The cabinet must meet front-to-rear ventilation requirements.

  • The cabinet must be equipped with air filters.

  • The distance between front and rear mounting rails must be in the range from 450 mm to 730 mm.

Dimensions without packaging (H x W x D) 2200 mm x 600 mm x 1000 mm (86.61 in. x 23.62 in. x 39.37 in.)
Dimensions with packaging H x W x D) 2320 mm x 720 mm x 1290 mm (91.34 in. x 28.35 in. x 50.79 in.)

CAUTIO

  • The device supports front-to-rear and rear-to-front heat dissipation modes. To ensure smooth and efficient heat dissipation, check the airflow direction of the equipment room where the device is to be
    installed, and ensure that cold air flows into the device from the air intake vent and leaves from the air exhaust vent.

  • The device is air-cooled. The air intake and air exhaust vents must be free from obstacles, such as labels, to prevent the air intake and air exhaust vents from being blocked.

  • You are advised to select the power cable’s cross-sectional area and the device’s circuit breaker according to the site survey result.

6 Installing the Device into a Cabinet

6.1 Install guide rails.

CAUTION

  • Ensure that the guide rails do not tilt inward.

NOTICE

  • For details about how to install guide rails, see the installation guide delivered with the guide rails. Install the guide rails according to the left and right
  • marks on the guide rails.
  1. Adjust the length of one guide rail according to the distance between the front and rear mounting rails, place the guide rail horizontally at the determined installation position in the cabinet, and hook it to the cabinet’s front and rear mounting rails.
  2. Install M6 screws at the front and rear sides of the guide rail, tighten them to 3 N·m of torque to secure the guide rail to the cabinet, and then install another guide rail in the same manner.

6.2 Install floating nuts (for mounting brackets).

Install two floating nuts in the positions slightly above the guide rail on each front mounting rail. Install the two floating nuts in every other mounting hole.

6.3 Install mounting brackets.

To secure the mounting brackets to the chassis, use a torque screwdriver to tighten the three M4 cross recessed countersunk head screws on each of the left and right mounting brackets to 1.2 N·m of torque.

6.4 Install the device into the cabinet.

Facing the front of the cabinet, horizontally slide the chassis into the cabinet until the mounting brackets are in close contact with the mounting rails and aligned with the floating nuts. Secure the mounting brackets to the cabinet with M6 screws.

NOTE

The device is inserted into the cabinet from the front of the cabinet

CAUTION

Considering the weight of the device, it is recommended that at least two persons move it to the cabinet to prevent it from falling and possibly causing injury.

7 Installing Cables

Install ground cables.
  1. Install the ground cable between the device and cabinet.

  2. Install the cabinet ground cable

Install power cables.

  1. Install DC power cables.

  2. Install AC or high-voltage DC power cables.

CAUTION

Ensure that power cable terminals are properly connected with correct polarit DC power cables need to be prepared onsite. For details, see NetEngine 8000 F2A-8K36H Hardware
Description.

8 Checking After the Installation

9 Performing a Power-on Check

WARNING

Before performing a power-on check, ensure that power switches on the external power supply system and the router are turned off.

CAUTION

110 V AC power supply requires dual-live-wire input.

  • Turn on the external power supply and check whether the output voltage meets the power supply requirements of the device
  • Check whether the voltage of the input terminal on each power module is within the normal range. (DC: –40 V to –72 V; AC: 90 V to 290 V)
  • Power on the device and check whether indicators on the device are normal.

NOTE

For more information about indicators, see the .
