Notes
(1) –38 V dc represents the worst case input voltage condition for a fully configured shelf. –38 V dc is
used as the worst case input voltage condition because the components of the shelf have a Low
Battery Voltage shutdown feature which is activated at –38 V dc. –38 V dc input voltage is not the
normal operating condition for the shelf and is only included to enable calculation of the input wire
AWG to the shelf.
(2) List 1 (L1) current drains are used to determine the size of the dc power plant; that is, rectifiers and
batteries.
List 2 (L2) current drains are used to determine the size of the dc distribution system; that is, power
feeders and fuses or circuit breakers.
For complete definitions of L1 and L2, refer to GR-513-CORE.

vents is the only exception to this rule. For seismic installations, we
recommend installation of a 7670 RSP shelf in an Alcatel 23 in, 7 ft
Zone 4 seismic rack with a custom airflow base (44 RU).
If you use an unapproved rack or cabinet, or fail to configure the
shelves according to this document, or if you fail to use the required
air intake/exhaust plenums, you may obstruct critical air intake and
exhaust openings and cause thermal shutdown and/or failure.
Please consult with your technical support representative to ensure
you are using the proper rack or cabinet and configuration.
Danger 2 — You must not obstruct the air intake openings in the
base of the Alcatel 23 in, 7 ft Zone 4 seismic rack (44 RU) or the
Alcatel 7670 RSP custom cabinet, as they are required for proper
cooling of any RSP shelf installed in the cabinet.
Note 1 — All 7670 RSP shelves are designed for 23 in frame

mounting; mounting flanges are adjustable front to back to allow both
NEBS and ETSI compliance.
Note 2 — All 7670 RSP shelves are 600 mm deep, including fiber
management.

1.3 System grounding
Provision should be made at the site for access to the appropriate building ground
points. You ground the single shelf, control shelf, Peripheral shelf and Switching
shelf using a 2-hole lug on the top rear of the shelf. On the single shelf, control shelf,
and Peripheral shelf you must connect chassis and signal ground to the CO ground.
On the Switching shelf, chassis ground and signal ground are interconnected on the
midplane.
Note — On newer single shelves, control shelves, and Peripheral

shelves the signal and chassis grounds have been internally merged
and no longer require separate connections. A single ground point
now serves for both the signal and chassis grounds.
You must install the ground cables before powering any shelf.
Table 1-10 lists the grounds used and the various names that identify them; see the
Mandatory regulations for more information.
Table 1-10 Ground types
Ground Common name Description
Signal Functional ground This ground ensures signal integrity. It usually provides a
Functional earth return path for unbalanced signaling between systems.
Telecom safety earth
Chassis Protective earth This ground ensures electrical safety. All user-accessible
Safety ground surfaces that may become energized under a fault condition
must be connected to this ground.
Frame ground
ac ground
ac earth
Signal ground
Signal ground is a communications ground that provides a current return path for
circuits that are grounded on both ends. It uses a 0 V reference when both circuits use
the ground. For the single shelf, control shelf, and Peripheral shelf, you must connect
the signal and chassis ground to the CO ground. For the Switching shelf, signal
ground and chassis ground are interconnected on the midplane. The Switching shelf
has a single ground point on the rear of the shelf.
The signal ground termination is located at the top rear of the single shelf, control
shelf, and Peripheral shelf. See Figures 1-9 and 1-10 for signal ground information
on the connection label.


March 2005 95-5879-01-00-A
1 — Installation
Chassis ground
Chassis ground provides safety for electrical devices by drawing current away from
the device frame and chassis, preventing equipment from being energized if there is
an internal power fault in the device. Chassis ground also keeps ESD current away
from internal electronic components.
The chassis ground connection is located at the top rear of the control shelf,
Peripheral shelf and Switching shelf. The terminal supports a 2-hole lug.
If you install the shelves into a 7670 RSP cabinet, you may connect chassis ground
to the cabinet using the ground lugs provided on the cabinet.
Battery return
Also known as 0VR, battery return is the 0 V wire that returns to the battery. Because
the battery return carries a high level of current, always make sure that this wire is
separate from other ground wires. The wires that carry current should be separate
from the chassis ground, energy dumping ground, and signal ground. Never connect
the battery return to the main ground bus. See Figure 1-9 for battery return
information on the connection label.
Antistatic precautions
An antistatic kit is included with the shipment. Figure 1-5 shows the contents of the
kit.
Warning — Always wear a properly connected antistatic wrist strap

when performing any installation or equipment repair tasks.
Electronic circuitry is highly susceptible to damage by ESD.

Each single shelf, control shelf, or Peripheral shelf is powered by both an A input
feed and a B input feed from the terminal blocks.
The single shelf, control shelf, Peripheral shelves, and Switching shelves are fully
operational from either the A or B feeds. You must connect independent power feeds
from the dc power source to the A and B input terminal blocks to ensure equipment
reliability (redundancy) requirements. When both the A and B input feeds are
present, power is distributed between the A and B feeds. In the even of a failure of
one set of feeds, all power is supplied by the other set of feeds.
The power termination area on the Switching shelf provides four terminal blocks for
external power termination.
Each terminal block in a single shelf, control shelf, Peripheral shelf, or Switching
shelf supports two wires: one for -VBATT and one for 0VR, terminated by 2-hole
lugs. The lugs supplied with the shelf are sized for AWG#6 power feeds.
Figure 1-12 shows power termination on a terminal block.

The shelves have left and right terminal block safety covers installed over the
terminal block area. These covers come with the shelves. The covers must be
removed before you connect to the terminal blocks or signal ground, except on the
Switching shelf, which does not have a signal ground connection point. You must
reinstall the safety covers after you finish connecting to the terminal blocks and
signal ground. The covers have removable tabs on the sides to allow for increasing
numbers of cables. Figure 1-13 shows terminal block safety covers and the
removable tabs on a control shelf.

Power zones
The control shelf, Peripheral shelf and Switching shelf have four power zones with
each zone containing an A feed and a B feed for redundancy. Each feed is separately
filtered and breakered and can be powered on or powered off independently. All
power zones should be powered on at all times for normal system operation,
regardless of whether there are system cards installed in that zone. The eight circuit
breakers are located on the front of the shelves. Figure 1-14 shows the power zones
on the single shelf, control shelf, and Peripheral shelf.

1.6 External synchronization sources
You can configure up to four external synchronization sources for the 7670 RSP.
Table 1-13 lists the synchronization sources supported by the single-shelf system and
the multishelf system.
Caution — You must synchronize your nodes to the same source to
avoid traffic disruption due to timing differences between nodes.

Note — In the single-shelf system, and on the control shelf, one

2.048 MHz output port on each CIC is always available for
synchronization.
The SSU distributes system timing to all line cards and chooses a source based on a
configurable hierarchy.
Caution — The 7670 RSP may experience cell loss if the control
complex is not accessible by the line cards and therefore cannot
distribute timing. The control complex is not accessible when both
control cards are removed from the control shelf.
Table 1-14 shows the default hierarchy.

7670 RSP cabinet

This section describes cable management requirements for installing the 7670 RSP
in a custom cabinet.
Signal cables
As the signal cables exit the shelves, you must route them through the cabinet using
the vertical conduit provided. The cables can be routed either through the top of the
cabinet or through the bottom.
Warning — Be careful not to bend the fiber cables past the minimum
bend radius when routing them from the termination point into the
conduit.
Power cables
Power cables should not be routed through the conduits. They should be dressed
separately and secured to the cabinet with the cable tie locations provided on the
cabinet. The cables can be routed either through the top of the cabinet or through the
bottom.

Single shelf, control shelf, and Peripheral shelf cable management

All permanent cable connections on the single shelf, control shelf, and Peripheral
shelf connect to the rear of the shelf. Trays for cable management are located beneath
each of the upper and lower I/O slot rows. Cables are routed down from each I/O slot
to the cable management trays and then horizontally to the frame uprights.
You can remove the standard cable management trays and install the Alcatel Extra
Large Cable Management System (90-9545-01) on the 7670 RSP single shelf,
control shelf, and Peripheral shelf. It increases the area reserved for optical fiber
routing, and enables you to route optical fibers and copper cables separately.
Note — The extra large cable management tray extends the depth of
the shelf to 665 mm (26.18 in.), which exceeds the standard 600 mm
(23.62 in.) limit.
Contact your technical support representative for more information
about ordering the Extra Large Cable Management System.
Cables from CICs, FICs, and Facilities cards are routed up to the power termination
area and then horizontally to the frame uprights.
Power, alarm, and ground cables leaving the system terminate at the top rear of the
shelf and are routed from the termination point horizontally to the frame uprights.

Switching shelf cable management

All permanent cable connections on the Switching shelf connect to the rear of the
shelf. Trays for cable management are located beneath each of the upper and lower
SAC card slot rows. Cables are routed down from each SAC card slot to the trays and
then horizontally to the frame uprights.
HISL cables are available in four lengths: 5 m, 10 m, 15 m, 20 m, and 70 m. The
length you choose depends upon the distance between the Peripheral shelf and the
Switching shelves.
Warning 1 — Do not twist the HISL cable more than 90° over a
length of 20 mm.
Warning 2 — There is a 1 in. bend radius if the HISL cable remains
flat; the bend radius is 1.5 in. if the cable is twisted 90° throughout the
bend.
Caution — Always connect two HISL cables of the same length to

the Peripheral shelf when connecting between the FIC and the SAC.
Power, alarm, and ground cables leaving the system terminate at the top rear of the
shelf and are routed from the termination point horizontally to the frame uprights.

Procedure 1-13 Install a card
You can install or remove cards while the system is powered on.

95-5879-01-00-A March 2005
1 — Installation
All shelves support card installation on both the front and rear of the midplane. Table 1-20
describes card types and slot positions.
Danger — Laser emissions can damage your eyes. Never look at the
end of a live fiber-optic cable or the optical port of an installed card.
Warning 1 — Electronic circuitry is very susceptible to damage by

ESD. Always use caution when you handle a card.
Warning 2 — Do not touch any cables connected to a card. Contact

could damage the optical fiber in the cables.
Warning 3 — You must install filler plates in empty slots to prevent

cooling air from escaping and to maintain EMC compliance.
Warning 4 — When you replace a card at the rear of the shelf, use
caution to ensure that you do not damage the fiber-optic cables that are
attached to neighboring cards. Always ensure that these cables are
removed from the cable brackets before you replace a card.
Caution — Do not remove the SSC card, SCH card, or any of the SMX
cards from the active Switching shelf. If you must remove one of these
cards from the active shelf, force activity to the other shelf first.
Note 1 — You may need to remove the filler plate before you can install
a card. When you remove a card and do not install another card in its
place, you must install a filler plate to prevent cooling air from escaping
and to maintain EMC compliance.
Note 2 — To protect the integrity of optical cables, we recommend that

you keep optical and copper cabling separate. Install cards that use
optical cables on one side of the shelf, and cards that use copper cables
on the other side of the shelf.

Notes
(1) You only install control cards and CIC cards in a single shelf or control shelf.
(2) You only install Switch cards in a single-shelf system.
(3) If you plan to upgrade to a multishelf configuration, reserve line card slots 15 and 16 and I/O card slots 16 and 15 on both
the top and bottom rows.
(4) You can install the 1-port OC48/STM16 Channelized I/O card in I/O slot 1 only. The I/O card can be physically placed in I/O
slot 2, but you cannot configure the card in that slot.
(5) You can install the 4-port OC12/STM4 Channelized I/O card in I/O slot 1 only. The I/O card can be physically placed in I/O
slot 2, but you cannot configure the card in that slot.
You require the following tools to complete this procedure.

• a small slot screwdriver
• a medium slot screwdriver

95-5879-01-00-A March 2005
1 — Installation
2 Danger — Do not touch the alignment pins on the card connector;

they are sharp.
Warning — If a card is not properly located within its guides when it is

inserted into the shelf, damage to both the card and midplane connectors
may occur.
Align the card with its slot, ensuring that the PCB is properly located in both the top
and bottom card guides. If the card has ejectors, keep them in the closed position,
flush with the faceplate.
3 Warning 1 — When you slide the card into the slot, push the card
by applying pressure at the center of the faceplate until the closed
ejectors contact the top and bottom ejector troughs. This ensures that
you do not insert the card at an angle and damage your equipment.
Warning 2 — Do not use excessive force during card installation.

Forcing a card into the shelf can damage the card and the midplane
connectors.
Warning 3 — For cards that have ejectors, use the ejectors as

described to protect the connectors during initial insertion and to
engage the pin field once the card is in place. The ejectors are
designed to seat the card evenly without the use of excessive force.
Inserting a card without using the ejectors, or failing to engage both
ejectors evenly, can damage both the card and the shelf.
Warning 4 — Inductors are located along the solder-side of the

midplane edge of OC3 and OC12 cards. The inductors protrude out
from the card edge. Make sure that you do not damage the inductors
when you slide the card into the slot.
Slide the card slowly into the shelf, applying constant force to the center of the card.
You will feel an increase in resistance as the faceplate gasket engages and then
slides along the adjacent card.
a For a card that has ejectors:
i Slide the card into the slot until the closed ejectors contact the shelf
metalwork.
ii Open the ejectors by pulling them away from the center of the card
faceplate while depressing the catch on the back of the ejector. The card
will pull back slightly as you perform this step. You must ensure that the
card does not get pulled back beyond the point of gasket engagement to
protect the pin field.
iii Gently slide the card the rest of the way into the shelf, until the open
latches make contact with the shelf metalwork again.
iv Push the levers of both ejectors simultaneously toward the center of the
card faceplate until the spring clips lock the card into place; see
Figure 1-48.

March 2005 95-5879-01-00-A
1 — Installation
b For a card that does not have ejectors, slowly slide the card all the way into the
slot. You must ensure that the card is inserted evenly and gently, and do not
use force to overcome initial gasket compression load.

4 Secure the card.
a For a card with an ejector, use a medium slot screwdriver to secure the card
lock.
b For a card without an ejector, use a medium slot screwdriver to secure the
captive screws on the card.
Procedure 1-14 Install a filler plate
You require an antistatic wrist strap to complete this procedure.
Note — You must install filler plates in empty slots to prevent cooling air
from escaping and to maintain EMC compliance.
2 Pull the filler plate locking levers away from the center of the faceplate to the open
position.
3 Align the filler plate with the upper and lower card guides.
4 Slide the filler plate all the way into the slot.

Procedure 1-15 Remove a filler plate
2 Pull the locking levers away from the center of the faceplate to release the filler
plate. Gently pull on the ejectors to remove the filler plate from the chassis.
Procedure 1-16 Connect or disconnect optical cables
This procedure describes how to connect to, or disconnect from, optic-based cards. See
chapter 60 for information on handling, inspecting, and cleaning optical connectors and
receptacles.
Note — Use the cable clips that come with the card to join the transmit
and receive cables before connecting them to the card. The clip makes it
easier to connect and remove cables.
1 Put on the antistatic wrist strap and connect it to the ground point.
2 Take one half of a cable clip and lay the transmit and receive cables across it; see
