2.4 Checking the Boards

Clean the chassis and cabinet before installing the boards. Wear an antistatic wrist strap and remove the board from the antistatic package. Check whether the board name is consistent with the identifier on the package box, and whether any device is damaged or any component is missing. Check pins on the backplane of the chassis. The pins should be kept straight, orderly, and clean. For the pins bent in the board slots on the backplane, repair them. The boards are sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). When handling boards, observe the following rules: l l
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
Check whether the device is securely grounded against requirements. Wear an antistatic wrist strap during the installation.
l l
Ensure good contact of the metal tab of the wrist strap with your bare skin. Insert the other end of the wrist strap into the grounding point on the device. Ensure that the wrist strap works in the normal state. Its resistance value must be between 0.75 megohm and 10 megohm. If the service life (usually two years) of the wrist strap expires or the resistance value fails to meet requirements, replace it with another one. Avoid touching the board with your clothes, because the touch generates static electricity that is beyond the protection scope of the wrist strap. Wear antistatic gloves and place the board on an antistatic pad when replacing the chip of the board. Use antistatic tweezers or extraction tools to replace chips. Do not tough chips, circuits, or pins with your bare hands. Keep the board and other ESD sensitive parts to be installed in antistatic bags. Place the removed boards and components on an antistatic pad or other antistatic materials. Do not use non-antistatic materials such as white foams, common plastic bags, or paper bags to pack boards or let them touch boards. Wear an antistatic wrist strap when operating the ports of boards because they are also ESD-sensitive. Discharge the static electricity of cables and protective sleeves before connecting them to the ports. It is recommended that you reserve some materials that can hold boards such as vacuum formed boxes and antistatic bags in the equipment room for later use.

Check cables and connector components, choose appropriate cables and connector components, and assemble them according to the cable assembly precautions.
Checking the Appearance of Cables

l l l l If the cable jacket or insulation is visibly dirty, clean it before assembly. If the jacket or insulation of a cable has visible damage, irreparable scuffing, or other defects, do not use the cable. If the shield layer of a cable is damaged, do not use the cable. If the cable jacket or insulation cracks after the cable is bent or twisted, discard this cable and check whether other cables have the same problem. If other cables have the same problem, replace these cables.
Checking the Appearance of Connectors

l l l Do not use connectors with visible defects, damage, rust or scuffing. Do not use connectors if their pins or shells are damaged. Do not use connectors that have dirt on their pins or in their jacks or if there are conductors between pins or between pins and the shell.
Precautions for Assembly

l l l Use dedicated tools or tools delivered by Huawei and follow the methods given here during assembly. Hold terminals of cables instead of pulling the cables when installing or removing cable components. Take the following precautions when cutting or stripping cables: Make cables slightly longer than necessary. Coil cables longer than 2 m (6.56 ft) after cutting. Bind and fasten the coils using bundling ropes. The inner diameters of the coils should be larger than 20 times the outer diameters of the cables. When stripping the jackets of cables, avoid damaging the shield layers (braid or aluminum foil), insulation, core conductors, and other jackets that do not need to be stripped. Clean the exposed jackets. Cut all cables neatly. Do not touch the core conductors of cables with your hands. Terminate exposed conductors in a timely way after stripping off insulation so that the surface of the conductors does not become oxidized. l Take the following precautions when crimping and connecting cables or connectors: The terminals and conductors should be connected tightly after they are crimped. They should not be moved or turned. Cut all the exposed copper wires. Try to avoid a second crimping of sleeves.

3.4.3 Checking the Appearance of Contact Strips

This section describes how to check the contact strips and how to judge whether an assembled RJ45 connector is qualified.
Context
l To ensure proper contact between the crimped wires and the wire conductors, the heights and sizes of the contact strips must be standard and the same.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
l l l l
The contact strips must be parallel to each other, with an offset less than 5. The top margin of a strip must be parallel to the axis of the connector, with an offset less than 10. To ensure conduction, the surface of the contact strips must be clean. The contact strips must be in good contact with the RJ45 socket. The plastic separators must remain intact and be aligned. The contact strip blade must extend beyond the ends of the wires. The ends of the wires must be in contact with the edge of the RJ45. The distance between them must be less than 0.5 mm (0.02 in.).
Procedure
Step 1 Hold the crimped connector, with the front side facing you, and check whether the contact strips are of the same height. The height should be 6.02 0.13 mm (0.237 0.005). If a measuring tool is not available, you can compare the connector with a standard connector. Figure 3-58 shows an unqualified piece, and Figure 3-59 shows a qualified piece.

3.4.4 Testing the Connection of Assembled Cables

This topic describes how to test an assembled Ethernet cable, ensuring that the connectors and wires at both ends are correctly connected. This topic illustrates how to test a straight-through cable.
Context
Huawei provides two types of Ethernet cables: straight-through cables and crossover cables. l Straight-through cables are connected in a one-to-one manner. They are used to connect terminals such as a computer to network devices. Table 3-8 lists the connections of core wires in a straight-through cable. Table 3-8 Connections of core wires in a straight-through cable RJ45 Connector 1 2 1 6 3 4 5 8 7 RJ45 Connector 2 2 1 6 3 4 5 8 7 Core Wire Color Orange Orange-White Green Green-White Blue Blue-White Brown Brown-White Twisted Twisted Twisted Twisted or Not Twisted
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)

Pin8 Pin1
Procedure
Step 1 Feed both connectors of the cable into the ports of the cable tester. Step 2 After the connectors are properly inserted, turn on the tester. If the indicators from 1 to G turn on simultaneously, you can infer that the pins work normally and the wires are correctly connected.
NOTE
Turn the switch to the S position and check whether the indicators turn on simultaneously, as shown in Figure 3-65.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)

Figure 3-65 Testing the conduction and connections of wires
Step 3 Gently shake the connector and repeat Step 2 to check whether the metal contact strips are in good contact with the core wires and Ethernet ports, as shown in Figure 3-66. Figure 3-66 Checking the reliability
The procedure for testing a crossover cable is the same as that for testing a straight-through cable except for the sequence in which the indicators turn on. You need to refer to the wire connections of a crossover cable. The Ethernet cable is qualified if the indicators turn on in the following sequence: At the master (left) section of the tester, the indicators turn on in the sequence of 1-8-G. At the slave (right) section of the tester, the indicators turn on in the sequence of 3-6-1-4-5-2-7-8-G. Otherwise, the Ethernet cable is unqualified.

NOTE
If a tester is not available, you can use a multimeter to perform a simple test, as shown in Figure 3-67.

3.5 Installing Cable Accessories

This section describes how to install the cable accessories, such as power adapters, network adapters, coaxial connectors, SCSI connectors, and XLR connectors.
3.5.1 Precautions for Installing Cable Accessories

Tools
NOTE
The illustrations in this document may differ from actual situations. For example, in this document, the adapters of cable connectors have separate interfaces. In the actual situation, the adapters may have interfaces fixed on equipment.
Use dedicated tools provided or specified by Huawei and follow the installation procedure described here.
Bending Radius
Unless otherwise specified, bending radiuses (R) of cables or fibers must meet the requirements listed in Table 3-10.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
52
Table 3-10 Bending radiuses of cables or fibers Cable or Fiber Ordinary cable Feeder RF cable Fiber Bending Radius (R) In normal cases, R 2d. When the cable is connected with a connector, R 5d. R 7d In normal cases, R 15d. At the maximum limit, R 10d. R 40 mm (1.57 in.); Bending angle > 90
NOTE
The letter d indicates the diameter of a cable or fiber.
Precautions for Installation

l l Hold the terminals of cables instead of pulling the cables when installing or removing the cable components. Do not insert a connector forcibly when the connector is blocked. Pull out the connector by using a dedicated tool. Install the connector again after you check that the pins are inserted properly. Before tightening screws on cable connectors, ensure that the connectors are properly connected with their adapters. Use flathead or Phillips head screwdrivers and do not use too much force. To avoid damaging screws or adapters, do not tighten the screws forcibly. When removing densely aligned cables or fiber connectors, use dedicated pliers such as cable-pulling pliers and fiber-pulling pliers. Do not twist, bend, stretch, or extrude fibers during installation. Cover the fiber connectors that are not in use by using dustproof caps. Remove the dustproof caps before using the fiber connectors.
l l l
Requirements for Cable Routing

l l To protect cables, remove the burrs in the cable through-holes or install protective rings in the holes. To ease the connection and to avoid stress, keep slack at cable joints. After connecting multiple cables to a connector that has multiple interfaces, keep the cables slack to avoid stress generation. Bind or clean cables gently because cable distortion affects signal quality. Keep cables away from moveable components such as doors. Sharp objects must not be touched in cable wiring to ensure that cables are not damaged. To protect power cables, power cables of the active and standby power modules are laid separately.

Instructions on How to Use an Optical Module

NOTE
Use only the modules supplied by HUAWEI.
Precautions for the loosened optical module

l When installing an optical module, force it into position. If a crack sound is heard or a slight tremor is felt, it indicates that the latch boss is secured. When the latch boss is not secured, the connecting finger is unstably connected to the connector on the board, and the link may become Up. On the condition that the optical module tremors or collides with another
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
object, however, the optical module will be loosened or the optical signals will be temporarily cut off. l When inserting the optical module, make sure that the tab is closed. (At this time, the latch boss locks the optical module.) After the optical module is inserted, try pulling it out to see if it is installed in position. If the optical module cannot be pulled out, it is secured. The tab is open
The tab is closed
Precautions for receptacle contamination

l Clean tissues must be prepared for the deployment on site. You need to clean the optical connector before inserting it in the receptacle. This protects the receptacle against the contamination on the end surface of the optical connector.
NOTE
Use at least three cleaning tissues. Wipe the end of an optical connector horizontally in one direction, and then move the connector end to the unused part of the cleaning tissue to continue. Generally, one cleaning tissue can be used once for cleaning an optical connector.
To prevent contamination, the optical module should be covered with either a dust cap or an optical connector. Cover an optical module with a dust cap
Cover an optical module with an optical connector
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
63
Lay the optical fibers on the Optical-fiber Distribution Frame (ODF) or coil them up in a fiber management tray. Make sure that the optical fibers are not squeezed.
If a receptacle or an optical connector has not been used for a long time and not covered with a dust cap, you should clean it before using it. A cotton swab is used to clean a receptacle, and a cleaning tissue is used to clean an optical connector.
NOTE
During the cleaning process, insert the cotton swab and turn it slowly in the receptacle. Do not use too much strength, because the receptacle may be damaged.
If optical signals are lost during the operation of a device, use the preceding method to clean the receptacle or the optical connector. In this manner, the possibility of contamination can be excluded.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
64
Precautions for the overload-caused burnt optical module

l When using an OTDR to test the connectivity or the attenuation of optical signals, disconnect the optical connector from the optical module. Otherwise, the optical module is probably burnt. When performing a self-loop test, use an optical attenuator. Do not loosen the optical connector instead. It is required that a long-distance optical module input optical power smaller than -7 dBm. If the input optical power is larger than -7 dBm, you need to add an optical attenuator. For example, if the transmiting optical power is X dBm and the optical attenuation is Y dB, the receiving optical power is X-Y, which must be smaller than -7dBm (X-Y<-7 dBm).
l l
Other precautions
l The optical connector should be horizontally inserted in the receptacle to avoid damages to the receptacle.
Mixed use of multi-mode and single-mode optical fibers is prohibited. Otherwise, faults such as signal loss may occur.

Installation in One Cabinet

Chassis can be stacked up in a cabinet or on a rack. Make sure that all stacked-up chassis draw air in the same direction and exhaust air in the same direction. If chassis are not stacked up, the space between them for heat dissipation must be 2 U( 88.90 mm or 3.50 in.) or more. When the chassis is installed in the same cabinet with other devices, if the device under the chassis exhausts air from the top, it is required that the temperature at the air exhaust vent be below 50C( 122F ).

B.1 Environmental Requirements for an Equipment Room

This section describes the environmental requirements for equipment rooms, including site selection, room structure, construction requirement, temperature, humidity, cleanness, erosive gases, ESD protection, electromagnetic interference, and surge protection.
B.1.1 Requirements for Selecting a Site for an Equipment Room

When designing a project, consider the communication network planning and technical requirements of the equipment. Also consider hydrographic, geological, seismic, power supply, and transportation factors. Construction, structure, heating and ventilation, power supply, lighting and fire fighting of the equipment room should be designed by specialized construction designers to suit the environmental requirements of routers. The equipment room should also follow local regulations concerning the industrial construction, environmental protection, fire fighting, and civil air defense. Construction must conform to government standards, regulations, and other requirements. The equipment room should be located at a place free from high temperature, dust, toxic gases, explosive materials, or unstable voltage. Keep the equipment room away from significant vibrations or strong noises, as well as power transformer stations. The specific requirements for selecting a site for an equipment room are as follows: l The room should be located at a distance of at least 5 km (3.11 mi.) from heavy pollution sources such as smelting and coal mines. It should be located at a distance of at least 3.7 km (2.30 mi.) from moderate pollution sources such as chemical, rubber, and galvanization factories. It should be located at a distance of at least 2 km (1.24 mi.) from light pollution sources such as packinghouses and tanyards. If these pollution sources cannot be avoided, ensure that the equipment room is upwind of the pollution sources. In addition, adopt a high-quality equipment room or protection products. The room should be located away from livestock farms, or in the upwind of the livestock farms. Do not use an old livestock room or fertilizer warehouse as the equipment room. The air vent of the room should be far from the exhaust of city waste pipes, big cesspools and sewage treatment tanks. The room should be in the positive pressure state to prevent corrosive gases from entering the equipment room and corroding components and circuit boards. The room should be located far away from industrial and heating boilers. It is recommended that the room be on or above the second floor. If this requirement cannot be met, the ground for equipment installation in the room should be at least 600 mm (23.62 in,) above the maximum flood level. The room should be at an altitude lower than 3000 m (9842.4 ft). The room should be at least 3.7 km (2.30 mi.) away from the seaside or salt lake. Otherwise, the equipment room should be airtight with cooling facilities. In addition, alkalized soil cannot be used as the construction material. Otherwise, equipment suitable for wet conditions must be used. The equipment room should be strong enough to resist winds and downpours. The room should be located away from dusty roads or sand. If this is unavoidable, the doors and windows of the equipment room must not face pollution sources.

Ground all conductive materials in the room, including computer terminals. Use antistatic worktables. Keep non-antistatic materials (such as common bags, foams, and rubbers) at least 30 cm (11.81 in.) away from boards and ESD-sensitive components.
B.1.8 Electromagnetism Requirements for the Equipment Room

All interference sources, inside or outside the equipment room, can cause equipment problems with capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, electromagnetic wave radiation, and common
impedance (including grounding system) coupling. Prevent the interference using these approaches: l l l l Take effective measures against electrical interference from the power supply system. Do not use the working ground of the equipment as the same ground for lightning protection. Separate them as far as possible. Keep the equipment far away from strong power radio transmitters, radar units, and highfrequency and high-current equipment. Use electromagnetic shielding if necessary.
B.1.9 Requirements for Lightning Proof Grounding

Table B-5 shows the requirements for lightning proof grounding. Table B-5 Requirements for lightning proof grounding Item Capital construction Requirements Use the reinforced concrete structure for the construction of the equipment room. Install the lightning proof device like a lighting rod in the room. The lightning proof ground shares the same grounding body with the protection ground of the room. A TN-S power system shall be adopted. Use a special power transformer for the telecommunication site.

Item Grounding of DC power distribution
Requirements Connect the DC working ground (positive pole of the -48 V DC power supply or the negative pole of the 24 V DC power supply) with the indoor collective ground cable nearby. The total ground cable should meet the maximum load of the equipment. The power equipment must have the DC working ground cable, which can connect the power equipment to the collective ground cable of the telecommunication site (or the protection ground bar of the equipment room).
Equipotential connection
Ground the devices and auxiliary devices in the room such as mobile base station, transmission, switching equipment, power supply equipment, and cable distribution frame properly. Connect all PGND cables to the collective protection ground bar. Connect all PGND cables in one equipment room to one protection ground bar. Apply joint grounding to the working ground and protection ground of devices, which means the two share one grounding network. The cable rack, rack or shell, metal ventilation pipe, metal door or window of the equipment should be grounded for protection.
General requirements for grounding
Do not connect the neutral line of the AC power cable with the protection ground of any telecom equipment in the equipment room. Do not install the fuse or switch on the ground cable. All ground cables should be as short as possible, and arranged directly.
Grounding resistance
The grounding resistance must be lower than 1 ohm. The upper end of the grounding body should be at least 0.7 m (2.30 ft) over the ground. In cold areas, bury the grounding body below the frozen ground. Measure the grounding resistance periodically to ensure effective grounding.

B.2 Requirements for Power Supply

This section describes the requirements for power supply conditions.
B.2.1 Requirements for AC Power Supply

The AC power supply consists of power mains, uninterruptable power supply (UPS), and selfsupplied electric generator. In addition to meeting the requirements of the server load, the AC power supply must have a simple connection line, safe operation, flexible scheduling, and easy maintenance. The low-voltage power supply should have 3-phase, 5-wire mode or monophase 3-wire mode. This AC power supply should be 110 V/127 V/220 V/380 V, and the frequency is 50 Hz. The UPS should supply the same power and operate at the same phase as the power mains. The switching time between the UPS and mains should be less than 10 ms; otherwise, the networking devices will reboot or reset. For power distribution capacity in the equipment room, both the working current and fault current of the devices should be considered. Ensure that independent AC power supplies protect independent devices. Configure the current-carrying capacity of the protection switch of the equipment room for more than that of the devices. Table B-6 shows the voltage range of the AC power supply for the devices. Table B-6 Voltage range of AC power supply Item AC power capacity to support the devices AC power capacity to support the power modules and important buildings Frequency of alternating current Voltage wave shape sine distortion Requirements -10% to +5% of the rated voltage -15% to +10% of the rated voltage
-15% to +10% of the rated voltage Within 5% of the rated voltage
The automated electric generator must have a standard interface that supports telecommunication protocol, remote telecommunication, monitoring, and control. AC power cables should meet the following specifications: l l AC neutral should have a conductor with the same cross section as the phase line. AC cables should have non-flammable insulation. The layout of AC cables should comply with local regulations. Low-voltage power distribution rooms should comply with local regulations.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
B.2.2 Recommendations for AC Power Supply

The following shows recommendations for the AC power supply. l If the voltage of the power mains that supply power directly to devices exceeds the rated voltage by -10% to 5%, or exceeds the voltage range that devices can support, a voltage regulating device or voltage stabilizing device is required. If the mains do not supply power for the device directly, or if the mains voltage exceeds the rated voltage by -15% to 10% or exceeds the input voltage range of the DC power supply, a voltage regulating device or voltage stabilizing device is required. An UPS or inverter power supply system is required to provide uninterrupted AC power to support the telecommunication load. If abnormalities occur on the mains, telecommunication servers should be equipped with a self-supplied electric generator to support the key telecommunication load. The capacity should be not less than 150% to 200% of the total uninterruptable power supply. Storage batteries are usually installed in a parallel connection of two groups. UPS storage batteries are generally installed in one group. The redundancy required for the UPS can rely on concatenation or parallel connection. When an inverter or a UPS is used, the active inverter is determined by the maximum power and a backup inverter is required.
l l
B.2.3 Requirements for DC Power Supply

The telecommunication site should receive stable and reliable DC power. Deploy the power equipment near the telecom equipment to make the DC feeder as short as possible. To reduce power consumption and installation cost, the loop voltage drop from the battery port to the equipment port should be less than 3.2 V. For a communication site with heavy traffic or with more than two switching systems, two or more independent power supply systems should be used. For a large-scale communication site, multiple power supply systems are configured on different floors to supply power to equipment rooms. For a common communication site with medium traffic, a centralized power room or battery room is configured. You can also adopt a distributed power supply mode. Use an integrated power supply for an office with little traffic. Be sure to prevent the corrosive gas released by batteries from eroding circuit boards. Table B-7 shows the specifications for the DC power supply. Table B-7 Specifications for the DC power supply Item Range of the -48 V input voltage DC power capacity to support the surge current Regulated voltage precision Requirements -38 V to -72 V Greater than 1.5 times the rated current
If the AC input voltage is in the range of 85% to 110% of the rated value, and the load current is in the range of 5% to 100% of the rated value, the output voltage of the rectifier ranges from -46.0 V to 56.4 V, with the regulated voltage precision less than or equal to 1%.

Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
Item Overshoot amplitude of switch on/off Peak-to-peak noise voltage Dynamic response
Requirements Integral value of the DC output voltage 5%
200 mV The recovery time is less than 200 ms. The overshoot is in the range of the integral value of the DC output voltage 5%.
B.2.4 Recommendations for DC Power Supply

The following shows recommendations for the DC power supply. l l l Use distributed power supply mode. Use multiple DC power supply systems and put power equipment in multiple locations. Adopt a standard DC power supply system, and set the output voltage to the communications equipment within the required range. Improving the reliability of the AC power supply system reduces the necessary capacity of storage batteries. For small offices, increase the capacity of storage batteries if it is difficult to enhance the reliability of the AC power supply system. The total capacity of the high-frequency switching rectifier must satisfy the power of the communication loading and battery charging. If there are 10 or fewer active rectifier modules, configure one backup module. If there are more than 10 active modules, configure one backup module for every 10 active modules. Install storage batteries in two or more groups. The capacity is determined by the duration for which the storage batteries must supply power. For most offices, the batteries should be able to supply power for at least one hour.

The label for signal cables is L-shaped with fixed dimensions, as shown in Figure D-1.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
160
Figure D-1 Label for signal cables
To specify more clearly the position of a cable, use the dividing lines on the label. For example, there is a dividing line between the cabinet number and the chassis number, and another one between the chassis number and the slot number. The dividing line is 1.5 mm x 0.6 mm (0.06 in. x 0.02 in.) with the color of Pantone 656c (light blue). The cut dotted line helps to fold the label when affixed to the cable, and its size is 1 mm x 2 mm (0.04 in. x 0.08 in.). There is a mark "TO:" (upside down in the figure) at the lower right corner of the label. The mark is used to identify the opposite end of the cable on which the label is affixed.
Power Cable Label

The label for power cables should be attached to the identification plate on the cable ties that are attached to the cable. The identification plate has an embossed area 0.2 mm x 0.6 mm (0.008
in. x 0.02 in.) around (symmetric on both sides), and the area in the middle is for affixing the label, as shown in Figure D-2. Figure D-2 Power cable label
D.1.3 Label Printing

The contents can be printed or written on the labels. Printing is recommended for the sake of high efficiency and eye-pleasant layout.
Template for Printing

You must use a template to print labels. You can obtain the template through the following methods:
l l
Download the template from http://support.huawei.com. Obtain the template from the Huawei local office.
The templates are made in Microsoft Word and the following requirements should be met: l l When using the template, you can directly modify the contents of the template. The settings of centered characters, direction, and fonts should not be changed. When there are too many characters to be filled in, zoom out the characters, but make sure that the printouts are clear and legible.
Merging Cells in the Template

To merge two or more cells, do as follows: 1. 2. 3. Select Edit/Select All. Select Format/Borders and Shading/Borders. Select Box tab and click OK. Drag the mouse to select cells to be merged and select the Table/Merge Cells.
Requirements on the Printer

To print the labels, a laser jet printer must be used, although there is no restriction on the model of the printer. Before printing the label, set up the page and try printing. 1. 2. Try printing on ordinary paper with both sides blank. Place the blank paper over the whole page of label paper, and check whether the page setup conforms to the label layout. Make sure the printer properties, such as "paper size" and "direction", have been set correctly. l If the printout conforms to the sheet of labels, print the labels on the label paper. l If the printout does not conform, adjust the page setup and try printing again until the correct printout is produced. The method of adjusting the page setup is as follows. 1. 2. 3. Select File/Page Setup. Select Layout and set Header and Footer as 0. Select the Margins tab page.

Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
163
After the page setup has been made correctly, save it for future use. This page setup is only necessary the first time you use the template to print the labels.
Requirements for Feeding the Printer

The label paper consists of two layers. No matter what model of printer you use, feed in the labels one page at a time. To avoid jamming the labels, never use the auto-feed mode.
Requirements for the Printed Label

Make sure that the printed labels satisfy the following requirements: l l l All the printouts must be on the label, and nothing should be printed on the backing layer of the label page. Contents in the cells should be aligned in the center. In a single-line printout, the dividing lines and the mark "To:" should not be covered by the printed characters. When the cells are merged and the printouts are made in multiple lines, avoid covering the mark "TO:" when printing the texts. Use the space bar to move the text to the next line.
D.1.4 Writing Labels

Writing Tools
To make sure the printouts are clear and legible, use the black markers instead of ball-point pens to write the labels. In special cases, black ball-pens are allowed, although not recommended. Compared with ballpoint pens, water-proof markers are better. When writing with a ball-point pen, do not leave the oil on the label, which may contaminate the label and blur the words.
NOTE
The delivered marker has two nibs. Make sure to use the smaller nib to write the labels.
Font
For the sake of easy recognition and good appearance, the font in handwriting should be as close to a standard typeface (such as Times New Roman) as possible. Table D-1 shows the standard typeface. Table D-1 Standard typeface for handwriting 0 9 I R 1 A J S 2 B K T 3 C L U 4 D M V 5 E N W 6 F O X 7 G P Y 8 H Q Z
WThe characters should be clear, distinct, and tidy. Writing direction: The direction is as shown in Figure D-4:
Figure D-4 Writing direction of the characters on the label
D.1.5 Attaching Labels

After printing or writing the label, remove the label from the page and attach it to the signal cable, or the identification plate of the power cable. The methods for attaching labels are described in the following sections.
Label for Signal Cables

l Choose the place to attach labels. The label is attached 2 cm (0.79 in.) from the connector on a signal cable. In special cases (for example, to avoid cable bending or affecting other cables), other positions are allowed to attach the labels. The rectangle part with characters is attached facing right or downward, as shown in Figure D-5. The details are as follows: The identification card is to the right of the cable in vertical cabling. The identification card should be downward when you lay out the cable horizontally. Figure D-5 Text area of the label
Procedure for attaching labels Figure D-6 shows the methods and procedures for attaching labels.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)

Figure D-6 Label for signal cables
Power Cable Label

Remove the label from the backing page, and attach it to the identification plate on the cable tie. The label should be attached to the rectangular flute on the identification plate, and attached to only one side of the identification plate. The cable ties are bundled at 2 cm (0.79 in.) from the connectors, and other positions are allowed in special circumstances. Cable ties should be bound on both ends of a cable. After the bundling, the finished identification plate should be on top of the cable in horizontal cabling, or on the right side of the cable in vertical cabling, as shown in Figure D-7. The details are as follows: l l The identification card is to the right of the cable in vertical cabling. The identification card is on the top of the cable in horizontal cabling. Make sure that the label is facing out.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)

Figure D-7 Binding the label for the power cable
D.1.6 Contents of Engineering Labels

Contents of Labels for Power Cables
Labels for power cables are only affixed on one side of the identification plates. On the labels, there is information (the part after the mark "TO:") about the location of the device on the other end of the cable, like the location of control cabinet, distribution box or power socket.
Contents of Labels for Signal Cables

The two sides of the label affixed on the signal cable carry information about the location of the ports connected to both ends of the cable. Figure D-8 shows the information on both sides of the labels affixed to the signal cables. l l l Area 1 contains the location information of the local end of the cable. Area 2 (with the mark "TO:") contains the location information of the opposite end of the cable. Area 3 has been folded up inside the label.
Figure D-8 Printed parts on the label for signal cables
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)
167
Seen from the cabling end of the equipment, the text part of the label is on the right side of the cable. The side with "TO:" that is facing outside carries the location information of the opposite end; and the other side carries the location information of the local end. Therefore, the information in Area 1 at one end is the same as the information in Area 2 at the other end of the cable. In other words, the local information at one end is called the opposite information at the other end.
D.1.7 Precautions for Using Engineering Labels

When using labels, pay attention to the following points: l l l l l When printing, writing, or attaching labels, keep the labels clean. Since the label paper is made of moistureproof and waterproof material, ink-jet printers and ink pens are forbidden for printing and writing labels. Labels should be attached tidily. New-type labels are strip-shaped. If they are pasted at incorrect locations or in wrong directions, the appearance of the device is affected. Power cable ties should be attached in the same positions on power cables, with identification plates on the same side. The positions of "up", "down", "left" or "right" are all based on the viewpoint of the engineering person who works on the label.
D.2 Engineering Labels for Optical Fibers

This section describes the engineering labels for optical fibers, including the labels for the optical fibers between devices and the labels for the optical fibers between a device and an ODF. These labels are affixed to the optical fibers that connect the optical interfaces on the boards in a chassis, or on the device boxes.

D.6 Engineering Labels for Power Cables

This describes the engineering labels for power cables, including DC and AC power cables.
D.6.1 Engineering Labels for DC Power Cables

The labels are affixed to the DC power cables that provide power supply for cabinets, including the -48 V, PGND, and BGND cables. Here, the DC power cables also include power cables and PGND cables. The labels for DC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification plates on cable ties. For details of the labels, see Table D-8.

Table D-8 Contents of the label Content MN(BC)B--48Vn MN(BC)-BBGND MN(BC)-BPGND Meaning MN(BC): BC is written right under MN. B: chassis number, numbered in the bottom-top order with two digits, for example, 01. N: power socket number, numbered as 1 to 3 in the bottom-top and leftto-right orders. On the loaded cabinet side, only MN is used to identify the cabinet. On the power cabinet side, MN identifies the row and column number of the power distribution equipment like a control cabinet and distribution box, and BC identifies the row and column number of the -48 V connector. If there is no row number or column number, or the connector can be identified without them, BC can be omitted. It is unnecessary for BGND and PGND to identify the row and column number.
The label only carries location information about the destination direction of the power cable while information of the local end is not necessary. That is, the label only carries location information about the opposite equipment, the control cabinet, or the distribution box. Table D-8 lists the information on two -48 V power supplies on the label. The information on other DC voltages, such as 24 V and 60 V should be given in similar methods. Make sure that labels are affixed in the correction direction. That is, after the cable ties are bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should face up, and the text on the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same direction. For details, see Figure D-15. Figure D-15 Example of the labels for DC power cables
The meaning of the label in Figure D-15 is as follows: l On the loaded cabinet side, the label "A01/B08--48V2" on the cable indicates that the cable is -48 V DC supply, which is from the eighth connector on row B of -48 V bus bar in the cabinet on row A, and column 1 in the equipment room. On the distribution box side, the label "B03--48V2" indicates that the cable is -48 V DC supply, connected to DC power socket 2 on row B, column 03 in the equipment room.
Issue 02 (2011-09-10)

NOTE
In the power distribution box or the first power cabinet of a row in a transmission equipment room, every terminal block on the -48 V connector bar has a numeric identification. For example, in the above label of "A01/B08--48V2", "08" (or sometimes "8") is the numeric identification of the terminal block.
PGND and BGND are two copper bars, on which the terminal blocks are short-circuited, therefore which terminal is connected makes no difference. It is only necessary to give the row and column of the power distribution box, instead of giving the specific serial number of the terminal block on the copper bar. For example, if the label on the loaded cabinet side is "A01BGND", it means that the power cable is a BGND that connects BGND copper bar in the power distribution box on Row A, Column 01 in the machine room. Information on the labels for PGND cables should be given in a similar way.
D.6.2 Engineering Labels for AC Power Cables

The labels are affixed to both ends of an AC power cable that provides AC power supply to cabinets, including 220 V, PGND, and BGND cables. The 220 V AC cables and related PGND and BGND cables are covered with an insulating sheath, so the labels need to contain only the word "AC" and the cabinet numbers. The labels for AC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification plates on cable ties. For details, see Table D-9. Table D-9 Label content Content MN-(B)-ACn Meaning MN: serial number of the cabinet or the socket where the power is led in B: chassis number, numbered in the bottom-top order with two digits, for example, 01. n: power port number, numbered as 1 to 3 in bottom-top and left-to-right order. Serial number of the socket where the power is led in: the location of the socket is marked according to the actual situation. If the sockets can be identified by row numbers and column numbers, they can be numbered following the same rule for the cabinets. If the sockets cannot be identified by rows and columns, specify the detailed locations to avoid confusion with other sockets.
The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment and the power socket; information about the local end is not necessary. Make sure that labels are affixed in correct direction. That is, after the cable ties are bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should face up, and the text on the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same direction, as shown in Figure D-16.
