Required Tools and Equipment

This section lists the tools and equipment needed for installation.

Hand Tools

The following hand tools are required for installation of the chassis, application and line cards, fan tray assemblies, and

power filter units:

 Phillips #1 and #2 hand screwdrivers. Used to tighten thumb-screws on cards, fan tray assemblies, PFUs, and

mounting brackets.

Caution: The inappropriate use of electric or pneumatic torque drivers, or power drill/impact drivers to

loosen or tighten fasteners may result in damage to system components.

 9/16-inch nut driver or ratchet and socket set. Used to connect power and return cables.

 3/8-inch nut driver or ratchet and socket set. Used to connect grounding cables.

 Torque wrench (rated 50 in-lb [5.65 N-m]) with 9/16-inch socket for tightening lugs to power terminals.

 Grounding wrist and/or heel straps. Used to prevent Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) as discussed in the

Protecting Against Electro-static Discharge section that follows.

Caution: During installation, maintenance, and/or removal, wear grounding wrist and/or heel straps to avoid

ESD damage to the components. Failure to do so could result in damage to sensitive electronic components and

potentially void your warranty.

Equipment

The following equipment is necessary to install the chassis and verify that it is ready for configuration:

 Standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) equipment rack or telecommunications cabinet with mounting hardware. Additional

hardware, such as extension brackets (not supplied), may be used to install the chassis in a standard 23-inch

(58.42 cm) cabinet or rack.

 Voltmeter to measure input voltages at the PFU terminals.

 Heat gun for installing shrink wrap tubing over power cable lugs.

 Console cable supplied with the Switch Processor I/O (SPIO) line card.

 A computer or terminal server with a 9-pin RS-232C serial port, or 25-to-9-pin male RS-232C adapter. It will be

connected to the SPIO's Console port for accessing the command line interface (CLI) for initial system

configuration.

 Pallet jack and/or chassis lift to move and position the ASR 5000 chassis. Without such mechanical assistance,

moving and positioning the chassis will require multiple craftpersons trained to safely handle heavy rack-

mounted units.
