0, slot 1 and so on. Air Flow Guidelines Cool air is circulated through the Cisco NCS 560-4 Router by three fan trays located along the left side of the router. Air flow is side-to-side, right to left, as shown in the figure below.
Page 32
Preparing for Installation Air Flow Guidelines Figure 7: Cisco NCS 560-4 Router Chassis Air Flow Direction of air flow — from the right side of the router to the left side The fan trays maintain acceptable operating temperatures for the internal components by drawing in cool air through the vents, and circulating the air through the chassis.
Air Flow Guidelines for Enclosed Rack Installation To install a Cisco NCS 560-4 Router in a 4-post enclosed cabinet, the front and rear doors of the cabinet must be removed or be perforated with a minimum of 65% open area (70% for 800mm racks).
Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations. Note The Cisco NCS 560-4 Router installation must comply with all the applicable codes and is approved for use with copper conductors only. The ground bond fastening hardware should be of compatible material and preclude loosening, deterioration, and electrochemical corrosion of hardware and joined material.
Site Cabling Guidelines The Cisco NCS 560-4 Routers can be powered by a DC source or an AC source. Ensure that equipment grounding is present and observe the power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all products plugged into the power strip does not exceed 80% of the rating.
The typical sources of EMI are equipment power cords and power service cables from electric utility companies. Strong EMI can destroy the signal drivers and receivers in the Cisco NCS 560-4 Router and even create an electrical hazard by causing power surges through the power lines into installed equipment. These problems are rare but could be catastrophic.
• Do not step on or stand on any component or system when servicing other systems or components in a rack. • When mounting the Cisco NCS 560-4 Router in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top, with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
Periodic Measurement of Environmental Pollutants It is recommended to check concentration of pollutants periodically. Necessary protection should be provided to equipment to ensure the equipment is not exposed to high concentration level of pollutants. Cisco NCS 560-4 Router Hardware Installation Guide...
Locating for Safety If the Cisco NCS 560-4 Router is the heaviest or the only piece of equipment in the rack, consider installing it at or near the bottom to ensure that the rack’s center of gravity is as low as possible.

Page 86
Secure the master fan tray to the chassis using the attached captive installation screws. The recommended maximum torque is 5.5 in.-lb (.62 N-m). Step 5 Orient the slave fan tray (N560-4-FAN-H) so that the fan tray is upright. See the figure below. Cisco NCS 560-4 Router Hardware Installation Guide...
Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the second slave fan tray. This completes the procedure for installing the fan trays in a Cisco NCS 560-4 Router. For a summary of the LEDs on the fan tray, see the Pinout and LED Details section. For more information about air flow guidelines, see the Air Flow Guidelines section.
This section describes the removal and replacement of both, the master fan tray and the slave fan trays. When any fan tray is removed, the other fans run at maximum speed. When a fan tray is re-inserted in the chassis, all fans run at normal speed within two minutes. Cisco NCS 560-4 Router Hardware Installation Guide...

Always handle the fan tray by the handle. Step 4 Pull the fan tray toward you no more than 1 inch to disengage it from the power receptacle on the midplane. Cisco NCS 560-4 Router Hardware Installation Guide...
Step 4 Position the module in the slot. Make sure that you align the sides of the module with the guides on each side of the slot, as shown in the figure below. Cisco NCS 560-4 Router Hardware Installation Guide...
Page 91
Blank module filler plates (Cisco part number N560-4-RSP-BLANK) should be installed in any Caution empty chassis slots to keep dust out of the chassis and to maintain consistent airflow through the chassis.
If the captive installation screws are loose, the EMI gaskets on the installed modules will push the modules toward the open slot, which in turn reduces the size of the opening and makes it difficult to remove the module. Cisco NCS 560-4 Router Hardware Installation Guide...
Place the module on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam, or immediately reinstall the module in another slot. Step 8 Install blank module filler plates (Cisco part number N560-4-RSP-BLANK) in empty slots, if any. Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous Warning voltages and currents inside the chassis;...
