Chassis Power System
Two types of power systems are available for the LCC: fixed configuration power and modular configuration
power. Both power systems can be powered by either AC or DC power.
The chassis power system takes the facility power and converts it to the DC voltage necessary to power chassis
components. Both types of power system comprise:
• Redundant AC or DC power shelves
• Alarm modules, one per power shelf
• Bus bar
• Chassis midplane
Safety Guidelines
Before you perform any procedure in this document, review the safety guidelines in this section to avoid
injuring yourself or damaging the equipment.
Although power shelves may be installed or removed without powering down the system, for safety purposes
we recommend that you power down the system before you install or remove a power shelf.
Note
The following guidelines are for your safety and to protect equipment. The guidelines do not include all
hazards. Be alert.
Review the safety warnings listed in
Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco CRS Carrier
before installing, configuring, or troubleshooting any installed card.
Note
• Never attempt to lift an object that might be too heavy for you to lift by yourself.
• Keep the work area clear and dust free during and after installation. Do not allow dirt or debris to enter
into any laser-based components.
• Keep tools and router components away from walk areas.
• Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, and other items that could get caught in the router while working
with PLIMs, MSCs, SFCs, and their associated components.
• Use Cisco equipment in accordance with its specifications and product-usage instructions.
• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
• Make sure your installation follows national and local electrical codes: in the United States, National
Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70, United States National Electrical Code; in Canada, Canadian
Electrical Code, part I, CSA C22.1; in other countries, International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
60364, part 1 through part 7.
• Connect only a DC power source that follows the safety extra-low voltage (SELV) requirements in
UL/CSA/IEC/EN 60950-1 and AS/NZS 60590 to the DC-input power system.
