Step 5 Stop unpacking the cases, find out the causes, and contact the local Huawei office to further
handle the problem.

CAUTION
To protect the equipment and find out the causes, perform the following actions: Move the
unpacked equipment indoors for proper storage, take photos of the storage environment, the
rusted or corroded equipment, packing cases, and packing materials. Keep these photos for future
verification. Store the packing cases and materials properly.

Step 6 Unpack the wooden cases.

CAUTION
l Before the unpacking, move the wooden cases into or close to the equipment room if enough
space is available. This prevents damage to the cabinets during the transportation.
l When you unpack the wooden cases, find the one containing the packing list first. Then, you
can find items rapidly according to the names, codes, positions, and quantities in the Packing
List.
l The following description takes the wooden case that contains the cabinet as an example.
The methods of unpacking other types of wooden cases are similar.

1. Place the wooden case on the ground. Ensure that the side with the wooden frame faces the
bottom.
2. Use a wrench, a flat-head screwdriver, or a claw hammer to straighten the tongues on the
four sides of the cover, as shown in Figure 3-1.

7.3 Principles of Routing and Binding the Power Cables and


PGND Cables
When installing the power cables and PGND cables, you should follow the routing and binding
principles.

Routing Principles
l Before routing the power cables and PGND cables, you should wrap the connectors with
insulating tapes to prevent the connectors from contacting the wiring terminals of the PDF.
l The layout of power cables and PGND cables should facilitate future expansion.
l The power cables and PGND cables should be routed separately from the signal cables.
l When power cables (or PGND cables) are laid parallel to signal cables, you should leave
at least 10 mm between the power cables (or PGND cables) and the signal cables inside
the cabinet and at least 100 mm outside the cabinet.
l When bending the power cables and PGND cables, you should ensure that the bending
radius is five times longer than the diameter of the cable.
l When adopting the underfloor cabling mode, you should reserve extra length of the power
cables at the cable inlet of the power distribution box on top of the cabinet. The purpose is
to help plug in and pull out the cables. In addition, the cables must be laid neatly at the top
of the cabinet.
l When connecting power cables to the wiring terminals of the power distribution box, you
should route them in a straight manner and ensure that the cables are curved smoothly at
the bent, without crossings.

Binding Principles
l The power cables and PGND cables are bound separately from the signal cables.
l The space between the cable ties should be 200 mm.
l The types (100 mm, 150 mm, 300 mm, and 295 mm) of cable ties should be determined
on the basis of the number of cables.
l The cable ties should face the same direction.
l After binding the cables tightly, you should cut off the surplus parts completely for indoor
cable ties and leave 3 mm to 5 mm for outdoor cable ties. The tails of the cable ties should
be trimmed.

7.4 Installing the Power Cables and PGND Cables Between


the N68E-22 Cabinet and the PDF
There are two modes of installing the power cables and PGND cables between the N68E-22
cabinet and the PDF: overhead cabling and underfloor cabling. Select one of them as required.

N68E-22 Cabinet N68E-22 Cabinet Installation Guide

Context
The cabinet uses the DC power supply. Technical Specifications of the Power Distribution Box
lists the specifications for the input power of the cabinet.

CAUTION
Correctly wear the ESD wrist strap. Ensure that the ESD wrist strap is properly connected to the
ESD connector on the cabinet.

Procedure
Step 1 Set the corresponding output switches on the PDF to OFF and all the output switches on the
power distribution box of the cabinet to OFF.

Step 2 Set the multimeter to the resistance scale and then measure the resistance at the power output
terminal for the PDF and at the input and output terminals for the power distribution box of the
cabinet. Ensure that there is no short-circuit between the -48V working power and the RTN
working ground. Ensure that there is no short-circuit between the -48V working power and the
PGND protection ground.

Step 3 Set the corresponding output switches on the PDF to ON and all the output switches on the power
distribution box of the cabinet to OFF.
Then, the power distribution box enters the self-check state. (The RUN and ALM LEDs on the
power distribution box are on at the same time and the buzzer sounds.) When the self-check is
complete, the power distribution box requests for registration at the SCUa board (the RUN LED
on the power distribution box blinks at 2 Hz) until the registration is successful (the RUN LED
blinks at 0.5 Hz). For the description about the status of LEDs on the power distribution box,
see LEDs on the Power Distribution Box.

Step 4 Set the multimeter to the voltage scale. Ensure that the output voltage of the PDF and the input
voltage of the power distribution box range from -40 V to -57 V.

Step 5 On a per subrack basis, set the corresponding two switches on the power distribution box to
ON.

Step 6 Set the multimeter to the voltage scale. Use the multimeter to check whether the output voltage
of the power distribution box ranges from -40 V to -57 V. Check whether the fan box in the
subrack can be normally started and whether the power supply to the boards in the subrack is
normal.
l Normally, when the subrack is powered on, the STATUS LED on the panel of the fan box
blinks. In case of exceptions, immediately turn off the switches of the power distribution box
and PDF. Check whether the output voltage of the power distribution box is normal and
whether the power cables are installed properly. For the description about the status of LEDs
on the fan box, see LED on the Fan Box.
l Normally, when the subrack is powered on, the RUN LED on the panel of the board is ON
or blinks. If all the LEDs on a board are off, the board or the corresponding slot may be faulty.
Contact Huawei for technical support. For the description about the status of LEDs on the
board, see LEDs on the Boards.
