Installing a NetIron XMR 32000 router
DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL
Preparing the installation site
Before installing the router, plan the location and orientation relative to other devices and equipment. For cooling purposes, allow a
minimum of six inches of space between the sides, front, and the back of the router and walls or other obstructions. If a router is installed
within a perforated enclosure, the perforations must cover at least 60 percent of the surface.
Since you will be using a mechanical lift to move and install the router, make sure you allow enough working room.
NOTE
Make sure your site provides 200-240 AC power.
Ensure that the proper network and power cabling is installed in the site. For information on cabling, refer to
“NetIron XMR 32000 cable
management”
on page 169,
“Installing NetIron XMR 32000 router power supplies”
on page 179, and
“Attaching a management station”
on page 184.
Unpacking a NetIron XMR 32000 router
The NetIron XMR 32000 router ships with the following items:
•
Router chassis with the card slots empty, and covered with upper and lower shipping panels
•
The appropriate number of interface modules, switch fabric modules, management modules, and power supplies
•
A total of 32 slot blanks
•
Insertion or extraction tool for use with RJ 45 and fiber-optic connectors
If any items are missing, contact the place of purchase
Removing the NetIron XMR 32000 from the shipping crate
The NetIron XMR 32000 router ships in a wooden crate, bolted to an inner pallet, and resting on an outer pallet. To remove the router, the
crate must be in the upright (vertical) position.
Before unpacking the router, the site should be prepared as described in
“Preparing the installation site”
on page 163. You will need these
tools:
•
A forklift or pallet jack with a minimum weight limit of 550 lb to move the router while still on the pallet.
•
A mechanical lift with a minimum weight limit of 350-lb limit to move the router off the pallet. The ideal configuration is a
counterweight base material lift with a metal lift plate installed in place of the forks. The metal plate should be no wider than 17
inches, so that it will fit between the rack mount rails.
•
A strap to stabilize the router while it is being moved on the mechanical lift
•
A power drill
•
A large Phillips screwdriver attachment
•
A 7/16 inch socket wrench attachment
Follow these steps to remove the router from the shipping crate.
1.
Position the crate so that you have access to the front and the rear. There must be enough space to the rear of the pallet to slide
and remove the crate.
2.
Use a power drill with Phillips and large flat-blade screwdriver attachments to remove the bolts and screws that hold the front
shipping panel in place, as shown in
Figure 116
. Remove the front shipping panel and set it aside.
