Modules
This section describes the SF/CPMs, IOMs, and MDAs that can be installed in the 7450 ESS-6 and
7450 ESS-6v chassis models.
SF/CPMs on page 23
IOMs on page 25
MDAs on page 25
SF/CPMS
The Switch Fabric/Control Processor Module (SF/CPM) controls routing and switching functions
for 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v systems. Both chassis models operate with at least one SF/CPM
installed but two are recommended for redundancy. The redundant SF/CPM operates in standby
mode and takes over system operation if the primary SF/CPM fails.
The SF/CPM connects directly to the backplane and carries traffic between line cards. The
backplane provides high-speed access to SF/CPMs, IOMs, and MDAs.
The switch fabric (SF) portion of the SF/CPM receives and directs traffic to the appropriate
destinations according to the routing information.
NOTE: The 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v feature a 160G SF/CPM. When you use IOM3-XPs
or IOM3-XP-Bs in your system, the 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v are capable of up to 40G
per IOM slot. Both SF/CPMs must be operational to support 40G bandwidth in each slot. If one
of the SF/CPMs fail, your 7450 ESS-6 or 7450 ESS-6v reverts to a 80Gig system, sharing the
80G across the four IOM slots for an average of 20G per slot.
Each SF/CPM module can accommodate up to three compact flash memory cards that you can use
to copy and store system boot, software images, and configuration files and logs.

SYNCHRONIZATION IN REDUNDANT SYSTEMS

The 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v systems are capable of a 1:1 Control Processor Module (CPM)
redundancy scheme. Redundancy methods facilitate system synchronization between the active
and standby CPMs to maintain identical operational parameters. This prevents inconsistencies in
the event of a CPM failure.
When you enable automatic system synchronization, any save or delete file operation that is
configured on the primary, secondary or tertiary locations on the active CPM file system are
mirrored in the standby CPM file system.
Although you can copy or download software configurations and images from remote locations,
synchronization can only occur locally between compact flash drives (cf1:, cf2:, and cf3:). You can
perform synchronization using the following methods:
Automatic synchronization Automatic synchronization is disabled by default. To enable

automatic synchronization, enter the config>system>synchronize command with
either the boot-env parameter or the config parameter.
When the boot-env parameter is specified, the BOF, boot.ldr, config, and image files are
automatically synchronized. When the config parameter is specified, only the config
files are automatically synchronized.
Automatic synchronization also occurs whenever the BOF is modified and when you enter
an admin>save command with no filename specified.
Page 24
Manual synchronization To execute synchronization manually, enter the

admin>synchronize command with the boot-env parameter or the config parameter.
7450 ESS-6 Overview
If the boot-env parameter is specified, the BOF, boot.ldr, config, and image files are
synchronized. If the config parameter is specified, only the config files are synchronized.
For more information about redundancy and synchronization, refer to the 7450 ESS OS
System Guide.
IOMS
The IOM is a carrier card that performs all packet classification, lookup, forwarding, and QoS
functions. IOMs can carry up to two MDAs that support Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP)
optics. IOMs enable 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v routers to support a wide variety of interfaces,
including Ethernet, SONET/SDH (channelized and concatenated), and ATM.
MDAS
MDAs are plug-in modules that you install in your IOMs. MDAs have fiber-optic or twisted pair
interfaces. A maximum of two MDAs can be installed in each IOM.
See "Appendix A: LEDs and Optics" on page 109 for LED descriptions.
Chassis Components
The 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v chassis contains the following components:

POWER SUPPLIES AND REDUNDANCY

The 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v chassis are designed to accommodate swappable, load-sharing
DC power entry modules (PEMs). One DC PEM can support the full system current requirements
of the router if you are operating without power redundancy. To set up your system for power
Page 25
Chassis Features
redundancy, you must install two PEMs in your system. Both PEMs must be powered on at all
times.
Note: The 7450 ESS-6v chassis is shipped with DC PEMs. The 7450 ESS-6v chassis is
shipped with DC PEM-3s but the system can use either a PEM or PEM-3. PEM-3s are
required to support the IOM3 family (XP and IMMs) of line cards.
7450 ESS-6
You can install and remove DC PEMs (see Figure 6) from the rear of the 7450 ESS-6 chassis. You
install your DC PEMs in power bays 1 and 2. One PEM can support the full system current
requirements if you are operating a 7450 ESS-6 without power redundancy. To set up your system
for power redundancy, you must install two PEMs in your system. Both PEMs must be powered on
at all times.
Always operate an energized chassis with the safety cover installed over the DC power terminal
block to prevent contact with hazardous voltages and currents and to prevent accidental removal.
DC power cables are not shipped with each PEM. Verify that your power cable is compliant with
your local safety codes. See "Preparing the Power Cable" on page 67 for cable preparation
requirements and information.
PEMs have no field-replaceable parts. The entire unit must be replaced in the event of a failure.
Figure 6: 7450 ESS-6 DC Power Entry Module
Page 26
7450 ESS-6 Overview
7450 ESS-6v
The DC PEM used in the ESS-6v chassis model is referred to as a PEM-3 (see Figure 7).
You can install and remove a PEM-3 from the front of the7450 ESS-6v chassis. Install your PEMs
in power bays 1 and 2. One PEM can support the full system current requirements if you are
operating a 7450 ESS-6v without power redundancy. To set up your system for power redundancy,
you must install two PEMs in your system. Both PEMs must be powered on at all times.
Always operate an energized chassis with the safety cover installed over the DC power terminal
block to prevent contact with hazardous voltages and currents and to prevent accidental removal.

FANS
Fans for the ESS-6 and ESS-6v are described in the following sections:
"ESS-6" on page 28
"ESS-6v" on page 30
ESS-6
The ESS-6 system is cooled by a system that houses two fans on a tray (see Figure 8). Air flows
through the system from a left-side filtered-intake vent, across the line cards and then exits through
the rear fan tray.
On the board level, the fan speed rate is reduced at normal temperatures and increases to high
speed when the operating temperature at the circuit-board level rises above 68 C (154 F). When
the temperature drops to 50 C (122 F) the fans return to the half speed rate. The fan LED located
on the front panel of the chassis indicates normal online (green), fault (amber), or offline (not lit) if
there is no power to the fans.
On the system level, the fan speed rate adjusts linearly when the exhaust air temperature increases
above 35 C (95 F) and reaches full speed when the exhaust air temperature reaches 45 C
(113 F). Temperatures above 55 C (131 F) will activate the overtemperature alarm in the fan
controller. The fans will return to low speed when the exhaust air temperature drops below 35 C
(95 F).
There are three temperature sensors per IOM and SF/CPM and one temperature sensor per MDA.
The highest temperature from any sensor is reported as the temperature for that slot. If the fan LED
is amber (which indicates a fan problem), enter the show card 1 detail CLI command to monitor
the current temperature and temperature threshold fields. If the temperature rises and remains
above the temperature threshold, an alarm is generated. If an alarm condition occurs, replace the
fan unit immediately.
The cooling system components work together to keep the internal components within the
acceptable temperature range. The cooling system consists of the following components:

On the SF/CPM front panel, the fan status indicator LEDs, labeled Fan Status, are displayed (see
Figure 5 on page 24). The green SF/CPM LED indicates normal operation. The SF/CPM LED is
amber if there is a fan failure or unlit if there is no power to a fan.
On the fan tray unit, the Status LED lights red if there is a fan failure, green during normal
operation, or is unlit if there is no power to a fan.
Fan trays are factory-installed. There are no field-replaceable parts within the fan tray. The entire
fan tray must be replaced if a component, such as a single fan, fails.
Both fan trays must always be installed and fully operational while the 7450 ESS-6 is powered up.
Page 29
Chassis Features
ESS-6v
The 7450 ESS-6v system is cooled by a system of two fan trays that houses three fans (Figure 9).
Air flows through the system from a front filtered-intake vent, across the line cards and then exits
through rear vents.
On the board level, the fan speed rate is reduced at normal temperatures and increases to high
speed when the operating temperature at the circuit-board level rises above 68 C (154 F). When
the temperature drops to 50 C (122 F) the fans return to the half speed rate. The fan LED located
on the front panel of the chassis indicates normal online (green), fault (amber), or offline (not lit) if
there is no power to the fans.
At the system level, the fan speed rate adjusts linearly when the exhaust air temperature increases
above 35 C (95 F) and reaches full speed when the exhaust air temperature reaches 45 C
(113 F). Temperatures above 55 C (131 F) will activate the overtemperature alarm in the fan
controller. The fans will return to low speed when the exhaust air temperature drops below 35 C
(95 F).
There are three temperature sensors per IOM and SF/CPM and one temperature sensor per MDA.
The highest temperature from any sensor is reported as the temperature for that slot. If the fan LED
is amber (which indicates a fan problem), use the show card 1 detail CLI command to monitor the
current temperature and temperature threshold fields. If the temperature rises and remains above
the temperature threshold, an alarm is generated. Replace the fan unit immediately.

On the fan tray unit, the Status LED is red if there is a fan failure, green during normal operation,
or unlit if there is no power to a fan.
Fan trays are factory-installed. There are no field-replaceable parts within a fan tray. The entire fan
tray must be replaced if a component, such as a single fan, fails.
Both fan trays must always be installed and fully operational while the 7450 ESS-6v is powered
up.
Page 31
Chassis Features
AIR FILTER
Each 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v chassis houses one model-specific air filter. The filter types are
not interchangeable between models. The air filter prevents large particles, debris, and dust from
entering and circulating through the system. Filters should be inspected monthly and replaced
when accumulated dust is present.
The filter is factory-installed and field-replaceable.
IMPEDANCE PANELS
Impedance panels are required in all empty card and component slots to prevent excess dust
accumulation and to help control airflow and electromagnetic interference, and for safety reasons.
Impedance panels do not have board components or connector pins. Impedance panels are
interchangeable between chassis models.

General Power Warnings and Notes

Danger:
Only a qualified electrician should connect power cables.

Before working on equipment that is connected to power, remove jewelry, (rings, necklaces,
watches, etc.). When metal objects are in contact with power and ground, serious burns can occur
or the objects can be welded to the terminals.
Turn off power at the power source before you install or remove power cords.
You must use cables that meet local electrical code requirements.
Japanese note:
Make your ground connections first.

Warning:

accumulation and to help control airflow and electromagnetic interference. Faceplate blanks do
not have board components or connector pins.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an
ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and always connect an ESD strap to the grounding plug on the
front of the chassis.
Notes:
Each 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v chassis requires a minimum of one DC PEM to operate. A
second power unit is recommended for redundancy.
For full redundancy, each PEM should be attached to an independent power source with a
dedicated circuit breaker.
In the event of a power module failure, the entire power module must be replaced. There are no
field serviceable parts inside the modules.
Page 64
Wiring 7450 ESS-6 DC PEMs

This section provides information and instructions to perform the following:
ESS-6 DC Power Warnings and Notes on page 65
ESS-6 DC-Input Power Wiring on page 67

ESS-6 DC Power Warnings and Notes

Danger:
The unit should be connected to a DC branch circuit with a 75A circuit breaker or fuse which
meets the requirements for branch circuit protection. A suitable disconnect device must be
provided in the DC branch, either a circuit breaker or switch that can be employed to
disconnect power to the system during servicing.
Confirm that the DC power source is OFF during installation. The power source should be a
safety extra-low voltage (SELV) source.
The 7450 ESS-6 chassis with DC PEMs should be installed only in restricted access areas
(such as dedicated equipment rooms and electrical closets) in accordance with Articles 110-26
and 110-27 of the most recent National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70.
Before connecting or disconnecting ground or power wires to the chassis, ensure that power is
removed from the DC circuit.
Page 65
Notes:
The remote power source (such as a circuit breaker panel) must be easily accessible.
Cables are not provided. In the United States, use #4 AWG, high strand count copper wire. If
the router is located outside the USA, consult local and national electrical code for proper
wire sizing.
Note that the 7450 ESS-6 router model is shipped with DC PEMs.
For the DC PEM terminal block, lugs are provided. If they are missing or misplaced, use a
Panduit LCC6-10A-L copper, standard barrel, two-hole lug with two #10 (.20-inch, .508cm)
diameter holes on a 5/8-inch (1.60cm) spacing.
Two PEM slots are located at the bottom rear of the chassis (see Figure 2 on page 18). The
slots are labeled on the sides of the chassis. Slot #1 is on the right side and slot #2 is on the
left side (when facing the chassis front).
The 7450 ESS-6 requires a minimum of one DC PEM to operate, but two are recommended
for redundancy. When two PEMs are installed, they share the electrical load equally as long
as both PEMs are operational. If one PEM fails, the remaining PEM provides the power the
router requires for normal operation.
For full redundancy, each power supply module should be attached to an independent power
source with a dedicated circuit breaker.
Page 66
ESS-6 DC-Input Power Wiring

Warning:
Ensure that all power is OFF from the DC circuit. Locate the circuit breaker on the panel board
that services the DC circuit. Switch the circuit breaker to the OFF ( O ) position.
When wiring the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last.
The proper wiring sequence is ground/negative to ground/negative and positive/return to
positive/return.
Use a minimum of #4 AWG for the -48VDC and RTN power connections.
Preparing the Power Cable

Connect the VDC and RTN studs on the DC terminal block with power cables terminated with
lugs such as a Panduit LCC6-10A-L copper, standard barrel, two-hole lug with two .200-inch
(.508 cm) diameter holes on a .625-inch (1.6 cm) spacing (Figure 17).
The other non-terminated end of the power cables must be prepared according to your local safety
codes. The length of the power cable depends on the location of the router and proximity to the
power source.

ESS-6vDC Power Warnings and Notes

Danger:
The unit should be connected to a DC branch circuit with a 75A circuit breaker or fuse that
meets the requirements for branch circuit protection. A suitable disconnect device must be
provided in the DC branch, either a circuit breaker or switch that can be used to disconnect
power to the system during servicing.
Confirm that the DC power source is OFF during installation. The power source should be a
safety extra-low voltage (SELV) source.
The ESS-6v chassis with DC PEMs must be installed only in restricted access areas (such as
dedicated equipment rooms and electrical closets) in accordance with Articles 110-26 and
110-27 of the most recent National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70.
Before connecting or disconnecting ground or power wires to the chassis, ensure that power is
removed from the DC circuit.
Page 71
Notes:
The remote power source (such as a circuit breaker panel) must be easily accessible.
Cables are not provided. In the United States, use #4 AWG, high strand count copper wire. If
the router is located outside the USA, consult local and national electrical code for proper
wire sizing.
Note that the 7450 ESS-6v router model is shipped with DC PEM-3s.
For the DC PEM-3 terminal block, lugs are provided. If they are missing or misplaced, use a
Panduit LCC6-10A-L copper, standard barrel, two-hole lug with two #10 (.20-inch, .508cm)
diameter holes on a 5/8-inch (1.60cm) spacing.
Two PEM slots are located at the left front of the chassis (see Figure 2 on page 18). The slots
are labeled above the slots. Slot #1 is on the right side and slot #2 is on the left side (when
facing the chassis front).
The ESS-6v requires a minimum of one DC PEM-3 to operate, but two are recommended for
redundancy. When two PEMs are installed, they share the electrical load equally as long as
both PEMs are operational. If one PEM fails, the remaining PEM provides the power the
router requires for normal operation.
For full redundancy, each power supply module should be attached to an independent power
source with a dedicated circuit breaker.
Page 72
ESS-6v DC-Input Power Wiring

Warning:
Ensure that all power is OFF from the DC circuit. Locate the circuit breaker on the panel board
that services the DC circuit. Switch the circuit breaker to the OFF ( O ) position.
When wiring the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last.
The proper wiring sequence is ground/negative to ground/negative and positive/return to
positive/return.
Use a #4 AWG for the -48VDC and RTN power connections.
Preparing the Power Cable

Connect the VDC and RTN studs on the DC terminal block with power cables terminated with
lugs such as a Panduit LCC6-10A-L copper, standard barrel, two-hole lug with two .200-inch
(.508 cm) diameter holes on a .625-inch (1.6 cm) spacing (Figure 17).
The other non-terminated end of the power cables must be prepared according to your local safety
codes. The length of the power cable depends on the location of the router and proximity to the
power source.

Installing SF/CPM Modules

Warnings and Notes
Warning:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if IOMs, SF/CPMs, or MDAs are mishandled.
Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and always connect an ESD strap to the
grounding plug on the front of the chassis.
Always place chassis components on an anti-static surface.
Do not power up your 7450 ESS-6/ESS-6v or ESS-6v chassis until all components are installed
and verified.
accumulation and to help control airflow and electromagnetic interference. Faceplate blanks do
not have board components or connector pins.
Notes:
SF/CPM modules do not require preconfiguration. Factory default values allow the system to boot
successfully.
All 7450 ESS-6/ESS-6v and ESS-6v systems require at least one SF/CPM.
Install the SF/CPM before installing IOMs.
Do not force an IOM into an SF/CPM slot.
Do not force an SF/CPM into an IOM slot.
The 7450 ESS-6/ESS-6v card slots are horizontally oriented. The 7450 ESS-6v card slots are
vertically oriented.
Each system requires at least one SF/CPM to operate. The SF/CPM must be installed in a center
slot labeled A or B.
IOMs are designed to fit in slots numbered from top to bottom, 1 through 4.
Page 78

SF/CPM modules must be installed before installing IOMs. Install SF/CPMs only in middle slots
A or B. Typically, the first SF/CPM module installed in an 7450 ESS-6/ESS-6v or ESS-6v chassis
assumes the role as active, regardless of being inserted in Slot A or B. The next CPM installed in
the same chassis then assumes the role as the standby CPM. If only one CPM is installed in the
7450 ESS-6/ESS-6v or ESS-6v chassis, it becomes the active CPM regardless of the slot it is
installed in.
When the active CPM is removed for replacement or fails, the standby becomes the active CPM. If
two CPMs are inserted simultaneously (or almost simultaneously) and are booting at the same
time, then preference is given to the CPM installed in Slot A.
NOTE: The 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v feature a 160G SF/CPM. When you use IOM-XPs
or IOM-XP-Bs in your system, the 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v are capable of up to 40G per
IOM slot. Both SF/CPMs must be operational to support 40G bandwidth in each slot. If one of
the SF/CPMs fail, your 7450 ESS-6 or 7450 ESS-6v reverts to a 80Gig system, sharing the
80G across the four IOM slots for an average of 20G per slot.
See Figure 23 for an illustration of an SF/CPM being installed into a 7450 ESS-6 chassis. See
Figure 24 for an illustration of an SF/CPM being installed into a 7450 ESS-6v chassis. See
Table 30 for descriptions of the keys in each illustration.
NOTE: Each SF/CPM module has two ejector levers which seat and release the card from the
backplane connectors. During installation, the ejector levers must be positioned inward and then
rotated outward to lock into place. The ejector levers must remain in the locked position while the
card is installed in the chassis.

Initializing The System

The primary copy of TiMOS software is located on a compact flash card. The removable media is
shipped with each software license and contains a copy of the TiMOS software.
Notes:
The SF/CPM modules contain three slots for removable compact flash cards. The drives are
named Compact Flash Slot #1 (cf1), Compact Flash Slot #2 (cf2), and Compact Flash Slot #3
(cf3). Configurations and executable images can be stored on flash cards or an FTP file location.
The flash card containing the bootstrap and boot option files must be installed in Compact Flash
Slot #3 (cf3) on the SF/CPM.
You must have a console connection. See "Console Connection" on page 86.

Page 86
To establish a console connection:

Step 1
Connect the terminal to the Console port on the SF/CPM (Figure 26) using the serial
cable.
If you use a null modem cable, make sure that the switch beside the console port is set to
DTE when connecting to the serial port of a PC.
If you use a straight-through cable, make sure that the switch beside the console port is
set to DCE when connecting to the serial port of a PC.
Step 2
Power on the terminal.
Step 3
Establish the connection by pressing the Enter key a few times on your terminal
keyboard.
Step 4
At the prompt, enter the login and password.

The default login is admin.
The default password is admin.
Telnet Connection
Access the switch after a successful initialization with a Telnet connection from a PC or
workstation connected to the network after the management port (Figure 27) has been configured
using the bof>address command (see below). Telnet access provides the same options for user
and administrator access as those available through the console port.
To configure the 7450 ESS-6/ESS-6v for Telnet access, you need to have a device with Telnet
software located on the same network. If you want to manage the system using the Ethernet
management port on the CPM, you must configure an IP address for that port. Each 7450 ESS-6/
ESS-6v switch is limited to a total of seven Telnet or SSH sessions. For information about
configuring switch parameters, refer to the 7450 OS System Guide. For pinout information, see
"Appendix C: Pinout Assignments" on page 163.
MAC addresses are listed on a small label on the chassis, IOM, and MDA. The MAC address also
displays in the show router arp command output.

Initial System Startup

To initialize the system, follow these steps:
Step 1
When the compact flash card is installed in the cf3: slot, the Compact Flash 3 LED on
the active CPM front panel should light green within approximately 30 seconds. If it
does not light or if it turns off again, refer to "Troubleshooting" on page 90.
Step 2
Press the Reset button on the SF/CPM or power cycle the switch to initiate the boot
process.
Step 3
The system searches Compact Flash Slot #3 (cf3) for the boot.ldr file (also known as
the bootstrap file).
Step 4
Verify the operational status by checking the Power and Status LEDs on the SF/CPM
faceplate. If the LEDs on the SF/CPM front panel blink continuously, refer to
"Troubleshooting" on page 90.
Step 5
After verifying the LEDs, proceed with the IOM and MDA installation and
configurations.
You can either preconfigure the IOMs, MDAs, and ports prior to installation or install the
IOMs and MDAs first and then configure the parameters.
To preconfigure IOMs and MDAs, see Configuring Chassis Slot, IOM, and MDA
Parameters on page 94.
Page 89
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
If the Compact Flash 3 LED does not light after 30 seconds, it is most likely faulty. If the system
cannot load or cannot find the boot.ldr file on cf3:, the Compact Flash 3 LED will turn off and
the system will check for a manual boot sequence interruption. A manual boot sequence
interruption is performed by connecting a terminal to a console port and hitting any key when
prompted by the display. Unless an unsuccessful system initialization is manually interrupted, the
system will continuously reboot in an attempt to successfully find and load the boot.ldr file. To
fix this, load a compact flash card with the appropriate boot.ldr file into the cf3: slot.
When the system finds the boot.ldr file, it processes the initialization parameters from the Boot
Option File (BOF). The BOF should be on the same flash card as the boot loader file. If the BOF
cannot be found or loaded, the system prompts for a different image and configuration location.
When the image is successfully loaded, control is passed from the boot loader file to the image.
The runtime image attempts to locate the configuration file as configured in the BOF. The
configuration file include chassis, IOM, MDA, and port configurations, as well as system, routing,
and service configurations.
The following example displays the output when either no flash is present or the boot.ldr file
cannot be found.

Replacing an ESS-6v DC PEM on page 126
Warnings and Notes

Danger:
Only trained and qualified personnel should install or replace this equipment and connect the
power cables.
Make your ground connections first.
Even though the power modules are hot-swappable, for extra safety you can turn off power at
the power source and disconnect and unplug the power cables before you remove and replace
a power module.
You must use power cables that meet local electrical code requirements.
Caution:
There are no handles or hand grips on the ESS-6 and ESS-6v. Lift the chassis from
underneath. Do not lift the unit by the internal chassis frame.
Warning:

accumulation and to help control airflow and electromagnetic interference. Impedance panels
do not have board components or connector pins.
Power supply modules are hot-insertable. If power cables are plugged into a circuit panel,
always use caution when removing and replacing field-replaceable components.
Notes:
The ESS-6 and ESS-6v requires a minimum of one DC PEM to operate. A second DC PEM is
recommended for redundancy.
For full redundancy, attach each PEM to an independent power source with a dedicated circuit
breaker.
In the event of a power module failure, replace the entire power module. There are no field
serviceable parts inside PEMs.
Page 119
Removing a DC PEM
If you are operating your ESS-6 or ESS-6v with redundant DC PEMs, you can remove and replace
a single PEM without affecting your systems operation. If you are operating your ESS-6 or ESS6v with only one DC PEM, the system will shut down when power to the PEM is removed. See
Figure 37 for an illustration of the removal of a DC PEM from an ESS-6 chassis. See Figure 38 for
an illustration of the removal of a DC PEM-3 from an ESS-6v chassis. See Table 40 for key
descriptions.
Danger:
Turn off the power from the remote power source to the PEM before you remove the safety cover.

plug on the front of the chassis. Always place chassis components on an anti-static surface.
Notes:
When replacing SF/CPM modules, configuration modifications are not required.

All 7450 systems require at least one SF/CPM.
When you remove an SF/CPM, always use the ejector levers to make sure that the connector
pins disconnect from the backplane.
Removing the SF/CPM module causes the system to shut down. If you are not immediately
installing a replacement SF/CPM module, replace the empty slot with an impedance panel and
power off the system until the SF/CPM module is replaced
The 7450 ESS-6 and 7450 ESS-6v accommodate two SF/CPMs, one active and one standby.
One SF/CPM is required for operation.
The SF/CPMs must be installed in slots A or B.
Page 130
Removing an SF/CPM
The following procedure describes how to remove an SF/CPM from an ESS-6 or ESS-6v chassis.
See Figure 44 for an illustration of the ESS-6 chassis. See Figure 45 for an illustration of the ESS6v chassis. See Table 46 for key descriptions on both figures.
To remove an SF/CPM:
Step 1
If applicable, eject all compact flash cards from their slots. The compact flash LEDs
displayed on the SF/CPM must be either unlit or blinking amber before ejecting the flash
card. For information on ejecting flash cards, see Ejecting Flash Cards on page 84.
Step 2
Disconnect all cable connections to the SF/CPM.
Step 3
Loosen the captive screws that fasten the SF/CPM to the chassis.

Replacing an SF/CPM
Note: Each SF/CPM module has two ejector levers that seat and release the card from the
backplane connectors. During installation, the ejector levers must be positioned inward and
then rotated outward to lock into place. The ejector levers must remain in the locked position
while the card is installed in the chassis.
The following procedure describes how to replace an SF/CPM. See Figure 46 for an illustration of
the ESS-6 chassis. See Figure 47 for an illustration of the ESS-6v chassis. See Table 47 for key
descriptions on both figures.
To install an SF/CPM:
Step 1
Remove the SF/CPM module from the packaging. Do not touch the printed circuit board
or connector pins.
Step 2
Install the SF/CPM in the chassis slots labeled A or B.

Hold the SF/CPM by the edges and then rotate the ejector levers inward toward the
faceplate.
Step 3
Align the SF/CPM with the slot guides and slide inward until the locking mechanism
engages with the card cage.
Step 4
Simultaneously, rotate the ejector levers outward to lock the backplane connectors and
SF/CPM in place.
If an SF/CPM ejector lever does not shift to the locked position, the card is probably not
seated properly in the backplane. Pull the card out halfway and then reinsert it. Shift the
levers to the locked position.
Step 5
Page 134
Secure the card in place by tightening the captive screws. The ejector levers must remain
in the locked position while the card is installed in the chassis.

Warnings and Notes

Danger:
Only trained and qualified personnel should install or replace this equipment.
Warning:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if SF/CPMs, IOMs, or MDAs are
mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and always connect an ESD
strap to the grounding plug on the front of the chassis.
Invisible laser radiation can be emitted from the aperture ports of an MDA when no cable is
connected. Avoid exposure and do not stare into open apertures.
Always place components on an anti-static surface.
Do not power up a ESS-6 or ESS-6v chassis until all components are installed and verified.
Use only approved small form factor pluggable (SFP) fiber optic devices in MDA ports.
Notes:
Ports cannot be provisioned if the MDA is not preprovisioned.

Services cannot be provisioned if ports are not provisioned.
MDAs can be attached to an IOM two ways:
Attach MDAs to the IOM and then load the unit into the chassis slot.
Install MDAs after the IOM is loaded in the chassis slot.
For configuration purposes, MDA slots are numbered 1 (the left MDA slot) and 2 (the right
MDA slot).

Warnings and Notes

Notes:
Fan trays are hot-swappable. Both fan trays must always be installed and fully operational
while the chassis is powered up.
Immediately replace a fan tray as soon as a failure is detected.
In the event of a single fan failure, the entire fan tray must be replaced.
For fan tray maintenance, you must have access to the rear of the chassis. Only one fan tray
should be removed at a time for during maintenance while the chassis powered on.

Removing and Replacing Air Filter Trays

This section contains:
Removing an Air Filter on page 157
Replacing an Air Filter on page 160
Notes:
Alcatel-Lucent recommends inspecting the air filter(s) on a monthly basis. If dirt and dust
accumulation are found, Alcatel-Lucent recommends replacing the air filter as the most optimal
course of corrective action. If desired, customers may also clean the air filter for reuse. If
cleaning the filter of a system in-service, use a spare filter as the initial replacement. Do not run
the system for extended periods of time without a filter installed. The filter is made of a foam
material and dry cleaning by use of a vacuum is recommended. After cleaning, inspect the
filter to insure the filter has not been damaged prior to re-use.
Notes:
The air filter is accessible from the rear of the chassis.
Removing an Air Filter

The following procedure describes how to remove an air filter from an ESS-6 or ESS-6v chassis.
To remove an air filter tray:
Step 1
Remove the filter tray faceplate.
Step 2
Pull the faceplate straight out of the slot with the filter tray attached by the Velcro tabs.
NOTE: Velcro tabs connect the filter tray to the filter tray faceplate. When you remove
the filter faceplate, make sure the filter tray is attached. They should be removed as one
unit.
Step 3
Detach the filter tray.
