Rack Requirements
The rack must meet the following requirements:
• Heavy-duty steel construction
• EIA standard hole spacing, or a Telco rack with 25 mm spacing
• Width of 19 in. (48.26 cm) or 23 in. (58.42 cm), depth of 24 in. (60.96 cm)
Caution: Nortel Networks does not authorize the use of racks with front
or rear doors or side panels. The operating environment must provide
airflow at 200 cubic feet per minute (CFM) per CVX 1800 chassis at a
temperature range of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C). The optimal ambient
temperature for reliable CVX 1800 operation is 68° to 77°F (20° to
25°C).
Rack Placement
The rack you plan to install should be in an area that is:
• A dedicated equipment room or closet, wired in accordance with local
electrical codes
• Large enough to allow easy access for service and maintenance
• Free of dust, smoke, and electrostatic discharge
• Properly ventilated
• Well lighted
Ceiling Requirements
Consider the following ceiling requirements before you install the rack:
• The ceiling should be clear of obstructions such as beams, heating and air
conditioning ducts, water pipes, and lights.
• The ceiling should not have sprinklers; however, appropriate fire protection
devices should be available.
To determine the total weight, add the weight of all of the CVX 1800 chassis
(about 100 lb, 45.36 kg each), and the weight of the rack.
Reference
For information about general equipment requirements, see the Telcordia Network
Equipment Building System (NEBS) Requirements: Physical Protection (GR-63).
Reference
For PTE 2000 rack installation instructions, see the PTE 2000 Installation Guide
(IM 07-08-1543).
Anchor Kits
Nortel Networks offers four types of PTE 2000 anchor kits; each kit contains two
anchors. If you do not plan to order anchor kits from Nortel Networks, you can
use other anchor kits that provide the same level of seismic protection.
Note: You must use six floor anchors to secure the PTE 2000 rack to the
equipment-room floor.

Space Requirements
The following table lists the PTE 2000 racks and dimensions.
Flooring Requirements
You must anchor the PTE 2000 rack to the equipment-room floor. The flooring
can be one of the following types:
• Raised floor tiles, ideally with a clearance of 18 in. (45.5 cm), and a subfloor
cable management system
• Bare concrete floor
If you plan to install the PTE 2000 floor anchors on a bare concrete floor, you
must drill to the following depths:
• 2 in. (51 mm) for the 3/8 in. anchor (for zone 2 earthquake compliance,
NTRU0323/NTRU0326)
• 4 in. (103 mm) for the M12 anchor (for zone 4 earthquake compliance,
NTRU0324/NTRU0328)
Warning: Before you begin to drill, make sure you are familiar with the
building construction. If you plan to drill holes in a below-ground
structure, make sure that you do not drill through the concrete into the
vapor barrier. If you do, groundwater may seep through the anchor hole.
Access Considerations
The doorways, corridors, and elevators leading to the installation site must be able
to accommodate the rack. Consider the following when planning the arrival and
unloading of the PTE 2000 rack:
• Including the pallet on which the PTE 2000 rack is shipped, the height of the
rack is 91.66 in. (2,325 mm). The pallet width is 39.4 in. (1,000 mm).
• The weight of an empty PTE 2000 rack is approximately 125 lb (57 kg),
excluding the shipping crate.
• Use freight elevators (if available) to move the equipment to upper floors.
To ensure proper cooling for the CVX 1800, the rack must meet the following
requirements:
• The operating environment must provide airflow at 200 CFM per CVX 1800
chassis at a temperature range of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C).
• The optimal ambient temperature for reliable long-term CVX 1800 operation
is 68° to 77°F (20° to 25°C).
Overview
To prepare for the installation of the CVX 1800 chassis, make sure:
• The shipment is complete and undamaged.
• You have the proper equipment and tools.
• You have network lines available.
Step Action
1 Using a screwdriver or other tool, pry down the tabs that secure the box

6 Using a 9/16-inch wrench, remove the four bolts that secure the pallet
brackets to the pallet.
7 Remove the four pallet brackets from the pallet.
8 Carefully remove the chassis from the pallet.
Note: If you detect or suspect any damage, do not install the CVX 1800
chassis. See “Technical Support” on page xxiv.
Tools
The shipment does not include the cables required for the telephone side of your
network. Ensure that the installation site has the proper network cabling.
Cable ties are needed to bundle network and power cables, to provide access to
LTM and RLTM modules.
Service Console
You can connect a service console or a PC to the CVX 1800 to monitor startup
diagnostics and to perform manual startup and configuration. See Chapter 3,
“Chassis Connections,” for information on installing a service console. See the
following software manuals for information on configuring the CVX access
switches:
• CVX Multi-Service Access Switch Startup Guide
• CVX Multi-Service Access Switch Configuration Guide
Note: Before you turn on the CVX 1800, you should connect a local
terminal or PC to the CVX 1800 console port. This console will display
diagnostic information if there is a startup problem, in which case, you
need to contact Nortel Networks Technical Support (see “Customer
Services” on page xxiv).
Mounting Hardware
To install the CVX 1800 chassis in a rack, you need a Phillips #2 screwdriver and
a computer rack that meets the specifications listed in “Rack Requirements” on
page 1-7.
If the rack does not have threaded rail holes, you must use cagenuts and cagenut
screws (not supplied).
Mounting Options
You can install the CVX 1800 chassis in one of two ways:
• Position the chassis on a flat, sturdy, horizontal surface.
• Mount the chassis in a rack.
Caution: Before you install the CVX 1800 chassis in a rack, ensure that
the rack is sturdy and well secured. A fully configured CVX 1800 chassis
weighs about 100 lb, which could make an unsecured rack top-heavy or
unstable.
Note: For NEBS 2000 compliance, you must install the CVX 1800
chassis in the mid-mount position.
For zone 4 earthquake protection, you must use zone 4 flanges. The following
table provides descriptions and ordering numbers for these items.
Step Action
1 Use a Phillips #2 screwdriver to remove the six screws that secure one
of the mounting flanges to the chassis.
2 Position the mounting flange so that the holes in the flange align with
the corresponding holes closest to the front of the chassis.

Overview
The optional external AC power supply contains up to three independent 1500 W
power modules. Each 1500 W power module can power one CVX 1800. You can
configure the external AC power supply as a fully redundant, load-sharing power
system. If the primary power module fails and there is a secondary power module
in the unit, the secondary power module provides power to the CVX 1800.
Note: A CVX 1800 must have two or more 1500 W power modules to
support power redundancy and load sharing.
Mounting Options
You can install the external AC power supply in any Telco or EIA 19-inch rack.
You can mount the power supply so that it is flush with the top or bottom of the
CVX 1800. Flush-mounting the power supply with the CVX 1800 chassis does
not obstruct airflow.

Rack Requirements
The rack must meet the following requirements:
• Heavy-duty steel construction
• EIA standard hole spacing, or a Telco rack with 25 mm spacing
• Width of 19 in. (48.26 cm) or 23 in. (58.42 cm), depth of 24 in. (60.96 cm)
Caution: Nortel Networks does not authorize the use of racks with front
or rear doors or side panels. The operating environment must provide
airflow at 200 cubic feet per minute (CFM) per CVX 1800 chassis at a
temperature range of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C). The optimal ambient
temperature for reliable CVX 1800 operation is 68° to 77°F (20° to
25°C).
Rack Placement
The rack you plan to install should be in an area that is:
• A dedicated equipment room or closet, wired in accordance with local
electrical codes
• Large enough to allow easy access for service and maintenance
• Free of dust, smoke, and electrostatic discharge
• Properly ventilated
• Well lighted
Ceiling Requirements
Consider the following ceiling requirements before you install the rack:
• The ceiling should be clear of obstructions such as beams, heating and air
conditioning ducts, water pipes, and lights.
• The ceiling should not have sprinklers; however, appropriate fire protection
devices should be available.
To determine the total weight, add the weight of all of the CVX 1800 chassis
(about 100 lb, 45.36 kg each), and the weight of the rack.
Reference
For information about general equipment requirements, see the Telcordia Network
Equipment Building System (NEBS) Requirements: Physical Protection (GR-63).
Reference
For PTE 2000 rack installation instructions, see the PTE 2000 Installation Guide
(IM 07-08-1543).
Anchor Kits
Nortel Networks offers four types of PTE 2000 anchor kits; each kit contains two
anchors. If you do not plan to order anchor kits from Nortel Networks, you can
use other anchor kits that provide the same level of seismic protection.
Note: You must use six floor anchors to secure the PTE 2000 rack to the
equipment-room floor.

Space Requirements
The following table lists the PTE 2000 racks and dimensions.
Flooring Requirements
You must anchor the PTE 2000 rack to the equipment-room floor. The flooring
can be one of the following types:
• Raised floor tiles, ideally with a clearance of 18 in. (45.5 cm), and a subfloor
cable management system
• Bare concrete floor
If you plan to install the PTE 2000 floor anchors on a bare concrete floor, you
must drill to the following depths:
• 2 in. (51 mm) for the 3/8 in. anchor (for zone 2 earthquake compliance,
NTRU0323/NTRU0326)
• 4 in. (103 mm) for the M12 anchor (for zone 4 earthquake compliance,
NTRU0324/NTRU0328)
Warning: Before you begin to drill, make sure you are familiar with the
building construction. If you plan to drill holes in a below-ground
structure, make sure that you do not drill through the concrete into the
vapor barrier. If you do, groundwater may seep through the anchor hole.
Access Considerations
The doorways, corridors, and elevators leading to the installation site must be able
to accommodate the rack. Consider the following when planning the arrival and
unloading of the PTE 2000 rack:
• Including the pallet on which the PTE 2000 rack is shipped, the height of the
rack is 91.66 in. (2,325 mm). The pallet width is 39.4 in. (1,000 mm).
• The weight of an empty PTE 2000 rack is approximately 125 lb (57 kg),
excluding the shipping crate.
• Use freight elevators (if available) to move the equipment to upper floors.
To ensure proper cooling for the CVX 1800, the rack must meet the following
requirements:
• The operating environment must provide airflow at 200 CFM per CVX 1800
chassis at a temperature range of 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C).
• The optimal ambient temperature for reliable long-term CVX 1800 operation
is 68° to 77°F (20° to 25°C).
Overview
To prepare for the installation of the CVX 1800 chassis, make sure:
• The shipment is complete and undamaged.
• You have the proper equipment and tools.
• You have network lines available.

7 Remove the four pallet brackets from the pallet.
8 Carefully remove the chassis from the pallet.
Note: If you detect or suspect any damage, do not install the CVX 1800
chassis. See “Technical Support” on page xxiv.
Tools
The shipment does not include the cables required for the telephone side of your
network. Ensure that the installation site has the proper network cabling.
Cable ties are needed to bundle network and power cables, to provide access to
LTM and RLTM modules.
Service Console
You can connect a service console or a PC to the CVX 1800 to monitor startup
diagnostics and to perform manual startup and configuration. See Chapter 3,
“Chassis Connections,” for information on installing a service console. See the
following software manuals for information on configuring the CVX access
switches:
• CVX Multi-Service Access Switch Startup Guide
• CVX Multi-Service Access Switch Configuration Guide
Note: Before you turn on the CVX 1800, you should connect a local
terminal or PC to the CVX 1800 console port. This console will display
diagnostic information if there is a startup problem, in which case, you
need to contact Nortel Networks Technical Support (see “Customer
Services” on page xxiv).
Mounting Hardware
To install the CVX 1800 chassis in a rack, you need a Phillips #2 screwdriver and
a computer rack that meets the specifications listed in “Rack Requirements” on
page 2-7.
If the rack does not have threaded rail holes, you must use cagenuts and cagenut
screws (not supplied).
Mounting Options
You can mount the CVX 1800 chassis in one of two ways:
• Position the chassis on a flat, sturdy, horizontal surface.
• Mount the chassis in a rack.
Caution: Before you install the CVX 1800 chassis in a rack, ensure that
the rack is sturdy and well secured. A fully configured CVX 1800 chassis
weighs about 100 lb, which could make an unsecured rack top-heavy or
unstable.
Note: For NEBS 2000 compliance, you must install the CVX 1800
chassis in the mid-mount position.
For zone 4 earthquake protection, you must use zone 4 flanges. The following
table provides descriptions and ordering numbers for these items.
Step Action
1 Use a Phillips #2 screwdriver to remove the six screws that secure one
of the mounting flanges to the chassis.
2 Position the mounting flange so that the holes in the flange align with
the corresponding holes closest to the front of the chassis.

Overview
The optional external AC power supply contains up to three independent 1500 W
power modules. Each 1500 W power module can power one CVX 1800. You can
configure the external AC power supply as a fully redundant, load-sharing power
system. If the primary power module fails and there is a secondary power module
in the unit, the secondary power module provides power to the CVX 1800.
Note: A CVX 1800 must have two or more 1500 W power modules to
support power redundancy and load sharing.
Mounting Options
You can install the external AC power supply in any Telco or EIA 19-inch rack.
You can mount the power supply so that it is flush with the top or bottom of the
CVX 1800. Flush-mounting the power supply with the CVX 1800 chassis does
not obstruct airflow.

Connecting Alarms
Introduction
The SCC-LTM and SCC-RLTMs contain a terminal block that allows you to
connect up to three audible alarms and three visual alarms. These alarms alert you
to critical, major, and minor conditions. The top six screw terminals on the
terminal block are available for audible alarms, such as bells; the bottom six screw
terminals are available for visual alarms, such as lights.
Warning: The contacts on the terminal block are rated at 30 VAC and
have a maximum current rating of 1 ampere (A). The circuit connecting
the alarms must meet the requirements for safety extra-low voltage
(SELV). The wires connecting the alarms must be the appropriate gauge
for alarm devices.
Alarm Categories

Warning: Never use both power supply options for the CVX 1800 at the
same time.
Requirements
Before you connect the CVX 1800 to power and ground at the installation site:
• Refer to your company or site specifications for information on the torque
requirements for securing power and ground cables.
• Read “DC Power Supply Warnings” on page vii.
Caution: When you plug in the DC power cable, the CVX 1800 access
switch turns on. Since the CVX 1800 chassis does not have a power
switch, you should only apply DC power when you are ready to bring the
CVX 1800 online. Before connecting power cables to the CVX 1800, use
a volt/ohm meter to ensure that the power cables are not live.

Introduction
The routing of fiber optic cables requires different considerations than the routing
of wire cables, due to the delicate material of the transmission line.
Minimum Radius
The following table gives the minimum bend radius for several types of fiber optic
cable:
Simplex 1 35 mm 50 mm
Duplex 2 70 mm 140 mm
Quad 4 85 mm 160 mm
To ensure that the fiber optic cable is properly secured to the chassis, a
rack-mounted bracket may be used to support the fiber optic cable. Nortel does
not supply a bracket for this purpose.
Fiber optic cables can be secured with tie wraps, if not applied too tightly. Your
application may also require the fiber to be wrapped in a protective paper. Tie
wraps must be fitted in accordance with Nortel Work Standards WS-001 and
WS-4024.
Description
The SCC-SM contains dual PCMCIA slots for the flash memory card. The flash
memory card provides storage for the CVX 1800 nonvolatile file system (NVFS),
operating system software, and configuration files. When you insert the flash
memory card, the NVFS automatically provides access to the flash memory card.
The dual PCMCIA slots are labeled 1 and 2. Slot 1 is the C: drive and slot 2 is the
D: drive. Always use slot 1 for the flash memory card. Use slot 2 if you need to
copy the flash memory card in slot 1 to a flash memory card in slot 2.
Note: If the flash memory card is not already in the SCC, insert it into
slot 1.
Warning: You must use software Release 5.0 or later when using an
Optical SCC-II-SM. Use of older versions will corrupt the SCC-SM,
requiring the return of the module to Nortel for reprogramming. Do not
copy earlier versions of software to a flash memory card used in an
Optical SCC-II-SM.
Reference
See the manual CVX Multi-Service Access Switch Configuration Guide for
information about copying a flash memory card.

Recommendations
Description
The 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet port on the SCC-LTM or SCC-RLTM allows you to
connect a remote PC or similar device to the CVX 1800 using an Ethernet hub.
Connecting to a remote PC allows you to edit a CVX 1800 configuration using
Telnet. You can also use the Ethernet port to connect to a remote Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) server for SNMP-based management.
Note: The 10/100 Mb/s Ethernet port is an autosensing port that adjusts
automatically for 10 or 100 Mb/s transmission. This means that the port
selects the correct operating speed based on the data packets it receives
from the remote PC.

Procedure
To apply power to the CVX 1800, follow these steps:
Step Action
1 Ensure that you have connected all power cables to the appropriate
terminals.
2 Ensure that you have installed the clear protective cover over the
power cable terminals.
3 Ensure that you have inserted the flash memory card in the left
PCMCIA slot (C: drive) on the SCC.
4 Apply power from the power source.
5 If the CVX 1800 is connected to an external AC power supply, turn on
the DC output power switch.
Introduction
The LEDs provide important information about the operating status of the system
control and access cards. These include the following cards:
• SCC-SM, SCC-RLTM (Ethernet 10/100 Mb/s ports)
• SCC-HSSI-SM, SCC-HSSI-RLTM
• Optical SCC-II
• Optical DAC
• DAC-SM
• MAC-SM
Note: The number of Ethernet connectors and Ethernet LEDs may vary
from what is shown, depending on the model of LTM you have. However,
the LED information is the same.

5 Using a flat-tip screwdriver, turn the locking screw at the top of the filler panel
1/4 turn clockwise.
If you have only one SCC-SM (a non-redundant configuration), you will need to
shut down the CVX switch to replace the SCC-SM.
Warning: You must use software Release 5.0 or later when using an
Optical SCC-II-SM. Use of older versions will corrupt the SCC-SM,
requiring the return of the module to Nortel for reprogramming. Do not
copy earlier versions of software to a flash memory card used in an
Optical SCC-II-SM.
Reference
See the manual CVX 1800 Multi-Service Access Switch Configuration Guide for
information about editing and managing configuration files.
Step Action
1 Remove the flash memory card from the PCMCIA slot by pressing the eject
button next to the slot.
2 Using a flat-tip screwdriver, turn the screw at the top of the SCC-SM 1/4 turn
counterclockwise to unlock.

5 Reattach any network cabling and alarm wiring from the SCC-LTM/RLTM you
just removed.
6 Reinstall the SCC-SMs that were removed earlier.
7 Observe the LEDs on the SCC-LTM/RLTM to verify proper operation.
Reference
For information about the SCC-LTM and SCC-RLTM LEDs, see “Checking the
LEDs” on page 3-52.
Replacement Procedure
The procedure for replacing these service modules is the same as the procedure
for replacing the SCC-SM.
Reference
See the CVX Multi-Service Access Switch Product Description for information on
where to position the modules.
Caution: Do not install E1-DAC and DS1-DAC cards in the same chassis.
Because the CVX switch synchronizes to one external clock, a CVX switch
that contains both E1-DAC and DS1-DAC cards will not function properly,
and is not supported.
Step Action
1 Using a 1/4-inch flat-tip screwdriver, turn the locking screw at the top of the
module 1/4 turn counterclockwise to the unlocked position.
Unlocked position

Cooling Requirements
Methods of Cooling
The two typical ways of cooling the equipment are:
• General cooling — cool air is supplied by air conditioning the entire
equipment room. Open racks are recommended for general cooling.
• Dedicated cooling — cool air is directly fed to a closed cabinet containing the
CVX 1800 equipment. If using this method, arrange the cabling so as to
minimize its effect on air flow inside the cabinet. Using a fan to move air
through the cabinet is recommended, especially if several CVX 1800 switches
are installed in one cabinet. All cabinet doors should be closed, and all cabinet
panels in place.
Airflow
Regardless of the method of cooling used, make sure that minium clearance
requirements are met and that airflow at the CVX 1800 is at least 200 CFM.
