Prepare to Install Cisco NCS 1004

This chapter explains how to prepare for the Cisco NCS 1004 installation.

Shipping and Receiving

The chassis is shipped in one of the following ways:

  • Chassis with filler cards and line cards— you receive the chassis with preinstalled line cards (based on the number of line cards you have ordered) and the rest of the line card slots have filler cards. If you have preordered four line cards, then, the chassis does not contain any filler cards. There are four fiber management brackets in the package, for each of the line card or filler cards preinstalled in the chassis. The controller and the three fan units are also preinstalled. The other items available in the same package (with the chassis) are:

    • Accessory kit, that has all the installation hardware.

    • Spare Serial Number label.

    • Two PSUs - AC or DC. Installation of PSUs is discussed in the Installation of Modules chapter.

      AC chassis - while ordering for an AC chassis, select the power cable. Based on your choice (NEMA or CEE), you get a pair of 90 degree and straight cables for each PSU. All the AC cables are 4.25 m long.

      Note

      The 90deg cable is used only for ETSI racks to maintain a footprint of 600 mm.

      DC chassis - when you order for a DC chassis, you get four power lugs for each PSU (a pair of 90-degree and a pair of 180-degree lugs). 180-degree lugs are used for ETSI racks to maintain a footprint of 600 mm.

    Figure 9. Chassis shipped with Line Cards

  • Chassis with only filler cards— you receive the chassis with four filler cards in the line card slots. There are four fiber management brackets in the package, for each of the filler cards. Each line card ordered as a spare item is shipped separately and the extra fiber management bracket (for the line card) is available in the line card package. Only the accessory kit is available with the chassis (in the same package). You must order all the other modules (fan units, controller, PSUs) separately.

    For installation procedures of the modules, see Installation of Modules chapter.

Unpack and Verify Cisco NCS 1004

This procedure enables the you to unpack and check if all the chassis modules that are required for installation have been shipped.

Procedure

Step 1

When you receive Cisco NCS 1004 equipment at the installation site, open the top of the box.

Step 2

Remove accessories and foam inserts from the box. The box contains Cisco NCS 1004 and other items needed for installation.

Step 3

To remove the chassis from the packaging, grasp the side of the chassis and lift it out of the box.

Use these lifting guidelines to avoid injury to yourself or damage to the equipment:

  • Do not lift equipment alone; have another person help you to lift the equipment.

    Figure 11. Lifting the NCS 1004

    A fully loaded chassis can weigh as much as 28.7 kgs (63.3 lbs).

  • Ensure that your footing is solid; balance the weight of the object between your feet.

  • Lift the equipment slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.

  • Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. When bending down to lift equipment, bend at the knees (not at the waist), to reduce the strain on your lower back muscles.

Step 4

Verify the following:

  • The Cisco NCS 1004 is not damaged. Check for a scratch, bend, discoloration or deformation on the Cisco NCS 1004 chassis.

  • The modules that are shipped with the chassis or separately are not damaged.

Step 5

If there is any damage to the chassis or the modules, call your Cisco sales engineer for a replacement.
