Page 13: Asr 5500 Hardware Platform Overview
Chapter 1 ASR 5500 Hardware Platform Overview This chapter describes the hardware components that comprise the ASR 5500 chassis. The ASR 5500 is designed to provide subscriber management services for high-capacity 4G wireless networks. This chapter includes the following sections: ...
Page 14: Chassis
The ASR 5500 is a 21RU, 19" rack-mount midplane-based chassis with input/output (I/O) and processing cards in the rear, and fabric cards in the front. Two ASR 5500 chassis fit into 42RU of rack space. However, the typical deployment will be a single chassis per rack with other equipment in the same rack.
Page 15: Cooling
Cooling The ASR 5500 uses two types of fan tray units and a total of four fan trays per chassis – two front fan trays and two rear fan trays. Air is drawn from the front and sides of the chassis and exhausted out the top rear and sides. Two fan trays are mounted at the bottom of the chassis with another two at the top.
Page 16: Power Filter Units (Pfus)
Cable Management System The ASR 5500 cable management system consists of two components. The first is a tray that mounts at the rear of the chassis immediately below the card cage. The second is a cable management bracket that mounts to the front panel of each Management Input/Output (MIO) or Management Input/Output Universal (UMIO) card.
Page 17: Midplane
Midplane ▀ Midplane The midplane within the ASR 5500 chassis interconnects rear input/output ports and processing cards with front fabric cards. The larger rear cards support chassis management, input/output, and session processing. The smaller front cards provide fabric crossbars, persistent storage and system status monitoring.
Page 18: Card Types
I/O functions (traffic sources). Front cards determine the amount of bandwidth for the switching fabric (crossbars), and indicate the operating and alarm status of the ASR 5500. The figure below is a simplified block diagram showing the ASR 5500 card architecture.

Page 20: Rear Cards
Cisco account representative for additional information. Management I/O The ASR 5500 chassis supports two MIO and/or UMIO cards placed in the rear facing slots of the chassis. These cards perform chassis management, as well as local context and non-local context external I/O operations.
Page 21: Data Processing Card
System Status Card (SSC) The crossbars that comprise the switching fabric are on the FSCs. The ASR 5500 supports multiple FSCs. Each FSC provides six physical fabric planes. When fully populated, there are 24 fabric planes in the system. A physical fabric plane provides full-mesh connectivity between all traffic sources.
Page 22: System Status Card (Ssc)
The array appears under /hd-raid and is available to all DPC/UDPCs and MIO/UMIOs. System Status Card (SSC) The ASR 5500 chassis supports two SSCs in front facing slots of the chassis. SSCs use dedicated slots in the left most slots of the front side of the chassis.

Page 29: Chassis Air Flow
Environmental Specifications ▀ Chassis Air Flow Air flow within the ASR 5500 complies with Telcordia recommendations to ensure vertical convection cooling of the system. As shown in the figure below, the lower fan trays pull ambient air inward from the front and side intake vents located near the bottom of the chassis.
Page 30: Clearance
The rear clearance is also necessary for removing and replacing the rear cards and fan trays (see the figure below). These units are very large and require additional clearance from cable management bars, PDUs, etc. Figure 8. Rear Clearance Zone ▄ ASR 5500 Installation Guide...
Page 31: Mounting Requirements
Mounting Requirements ▀ Mounting Requirements Each ASR 5500 chassis occupies 21 RU (rack units) within any standard (EIA-310-D, IEC 60297) 19-inch (482.6 mm) equipment rack or cabinet using the mounting brackets supplied with the chassis. Extension brackets (not supplied) may be used in conjunction with the chassis mounting brackets to install the chassis in a standard 23-inch (584.2 mm)
Page 32: Power Requirements
The DC power Battery Return (BR) or positive terminal, must be grounded at the source end (power feed or mains power end). Important: The DC power BR input terminal of the ASR 5500 is not connected to the equipment frame (chassis) and is configured as DC-I in compliance with GR-1089-CORE (sec.9.8.3). ▄ ASR 5500 Installation Guide...
Page 33: Central Office Alarm Interface
SSC Alarm Cabling chapter for details. Chassis Grounding The ASR 5500 is suitable for installation as part of the Common Bonding Network (CBN) within a network telecommunications facility. It is not intended for installation in an Isolated Bonding Network (IBN).
Page 35: Installation Procedure Overview
The copper serial Console port, 1000Base-T management ports, and CO alarm interface of the ASR 5500 are suitable for connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. These ports MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the outside plant (OSP) or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 5) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling.
Page 36: Installation Sequence
Installation Procedure Overview ▀ Installation Sequence Installation Sequence Installation of the ASR 5500 requires the completion of the following procedures: 1. Unpack the chassis and cards. 2. Determine which chassis mounting option to use: flush or mid-mount. Reposition the mounting brackets if necessary.
Page 37: Required Tools And Equipment
During installation, maintenance, and/or removal, wear a grounding wrist strap connected to the ASR 5500 chassis to avoid ESD damage to the components. Failure to do so could result in damage to sensitive electronic components and potentially void your warranty.
Page 38: Site Prerequisites
Clearance Adequate clearance must be maintained at the front and rear of the ASR 5500 chassis to assure proper air flow and allow maintenance access for the installation, removal and replacement of components. The recommended clearance is 36 inches (92 centimeters) at the front and rear of the chassis.
Page 39: Esd Precautions
Before the you can use the ESD jacks on the ASR 5500 chassis and its mounting brackets, you must first connect the chassis to ground according to the instructions in the Chassis Installation chapter of this document.

Wednesday October 10 13:08:27 us-eastern 2012 Configuring Network Time Protocol Support This section describes how to enable the use of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) on the ASR 5500 chassis. Overview of NTP Support Many of the services offered by the ASR 5500 platform require accurate timekeeping derived through NTP. If the time reference(s) used by StarOS are not accurate, the services may be unreliable.
Page 118: Basic Ntp Configuration
A local clock with no external source is usually a last-resort clock when no better clock is available. It is typically configured on a site's intermediate NTP server so that when a WAN network outage occurs, hosts within the site can continue to synchronize amongst themselves. ▄ ASR 5500 Installation Guide...

Determining Whether a Card has Failed The ASR 5500 has several ways to indicate an application card failure. The first indicator is that the Status LED on the System Status Card (SSC) turns red to indicate the failure of a chassis component. Another indicator is the Run/Fail LED on an application card is red or turns off if that card has a problem.

For detailed information on Cisco RMA policies (including detailed shipping instructions), go to the Product Online Web Returns (POWR) link on www.cisco.com.
Page 170: Rma Overview
The following general guidelines apply when packaging components:  It is best to use the original Cisco box and packaging in which your equipment was sent and received. You can use a shipping carton saved when the system and its components were installed. You can also use the packaging for a replacement component to repackage the original component.
