About This Chapter
Components of the Cabinet
Components of the cabinet involve the power distribution box, air defense frame, rear cable trough, subrack, independent fan subrack, and rack. 4.1 Power Distribution Box Each cabinet must be configured with a power distribution box, which is installed at the top of the cabinet. 4.2 Air Defence Subrack The air defence subrack is installed between two subracks. It is used to form a straight-through air channel. The air defence subrack is 1 U in height. 4.3 Rear Cable Trough The rear cable trough is used for routing and binding of the cables of rear boards. Each rear cable trough has three fiber management trays installed at the bottom to coil the optical cables. 4.4 Independent Fan Subrack Besides the fan boxes configured in subracks, the N68E-22 cabinet also has an independent fan subrack configured at the bottom of the cabinet to improve the reliability of heat dissipation.

4.1 Power Distribution Box

Each cabinet must be configured with a power distribution box, which is installed at the top of the cabinet. The power distribution box provides lightning protection and power surge protection for the four -48 V inputs and supplies two groups of power to the parts of the cabinet. Each group has four -48 V outputs and four RTN outputs. The power distribution box also detects the status of input voltage and the output power, and generates audible and visual alarms when faults occur. 4.1.1 Front Panel of the Power Distribution Box The components on the front panel of the power distribution box are the panel of the power allocation monitoring unit (PAMU) and the power distribution switches. 4.1.2 Rear Panel of the Power Distribution Box The components on the rear panel of the power distribution box are the power input terminal block, power output terminal block, port used to connect the power distribution box to a subrack, and a 2-hole grounding screw. 4.1.3 Technical Specifications of the Power Distribution Box This section describes the technical specifications for the input and output power supply of the power distribution box. 4.1.4 Distribution of Power Switches on the Power Distribution Box The power distribution box of the cabinet has 20 (10 x 2) power outputs. There is a fixed relation between the eight outputs of the power distribution box at the top of the cabinet and the intracabinet components.
4.1.1 Front Panel of the Power Distribution Box

The components on the front panel of the power distribution box are the panel of the power allocation monitoring unit (PAMU) and the power distribution switches. Figure 4-1 shows the front panel of the power distribution box. Figure 4-1 Front panel of the power distribution box(WP1E01DPD)

NOTE
l l
For details about the PAMU board, see 6.11 PAMU Board. When the power distribution box is reset, the RUN and ALM LEDs turn on at the same time, indicating that the PAMU board is performing self-check. As soon as the self-check is complete, the RUN and ALM LEDs turn off. Then, the RUN and ALM LEDs display the operating status of the power distribution box.
The mute switch is set to determine whether an audible alarm is generated.

l
If you set the mute switch to I, the power distribution box generates an audible alarm when it is faulty. If you set the mute switch to O, the power distribution box does not generate any audible alarm when it is faulty.
The front panel of the power distribution box has two LEDs: RUN and ALM. Table 4-1 describes the LEDs on the front panel of the power distribution box. Table 4-1 LEDs on the front panel of the power distribution box LED RUN Color Green Status ON for 1s and OFF for 1s ON for 0.25s and OFF for 0.25s OFF Description The PAMU board is functional and communicates with the SCUa board properly. The PAMU board is faulty or it does not communicate with the SCUa board properly. There is no power supply to the PAMU board or the power distribution box does not work properly. There is no alarm related to the power distribution box. The power distribution box is faulty. During the self-check of the PAMU board, however, the ALM LED is also ON. This indicates that the ALM LED is functional.

5 Subracks
Table 5-6 Description about the bits Bit 1-5 Description Bits 1 to 5 are used for setting the subrack number. Bit 1 is the least significant bit. If the bit is set to ON, it indicates 0. If the bit is set to OFF, it indicates 1. Odd parity check bit Reserved, undefined, generally set to ON Reserved
6 7 8 (the most significant bit)
Principle of the DIP Switch Setting

As the DIP switch uses odd parity check, the number of 1s in the eight bits must be an odd number. The method for setting the bits is as follows: 1. 2. 3. Set bit 1 to bit 5 as required. Set bit 7 to ON. Check the number of 1s in the seven bits of the DIP switch. Note that the setting of bit 8 remains unchanged.
l l
If the number of 1s is even, set bit 6 to OFF. If the number of 1s is odd, set bit 6 to ON.
Assume that the subracks are numbered from 0 to 2 and that bit 8 is set to OFF. Table 5-7 describes the setting of the DIP switch in the case.

When the 75-ohm coaxial cable is used, the signal transmission uses the E1 unbalanced mode. In this case, the TX end is grounded, that is, the corresponding bit of the DIP switch is set to ON. When the 120-ohm twisted pair cable is used, the signal transmission uses the E1(T1) balanced mode. In this case, the TX end is not grounded, that is, the corresponding bit of the DIP switch is set to OFF. All DIP switches of the EIUa board are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is faced to and combined with the bottom plate, and so the DIP switches are hidden in between.

NOTE

l l
All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottom plate, so the DIP switches are not exposed. DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 6-15, there are two square holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Through the two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the subboard, and thus you can set S10 along the side.The direction of the arrow in Figure 6-15 is to turn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to OFF, turn them inwards. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency between the physical setting of S10 on the AEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting by command as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support for balanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you must also manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalanced mode. If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxial cable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signals are transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted pair cable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.
DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the PEUa board are used to enable or disable the grounding of 0 to 31 E1s/T1s/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 6-47 describes S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10.

9.1 DIP Switch on the Subrack

The DIP switch on the subrack is used to set the number of the subrack.
Location of the DIP Switch

The DIP switch is located on the lower back of the subrack. For details on the location of the DIP switch, see 5.2 Components of the Subrack.
Appearance
Figure 9-1 shows the cover plate for the DIP switch on the subrack. Figure 9-1 Cover plate for the DIP switch on the subrack
Description about the DIP Switch

The DIP switch on the subrack has eight bits numbered in ascending order from 1 to 8. The higher the bit is, the more significant it is. Table 9-1 describes the bits.
9-2
Issue 04 (2010-03-25)
Table 9-1 Description about the bits Bit 1-5 Description Bits 1 to 5 are used for setting the subrack number. Bit 1 is the least significant bit. If the bit is set to ON, it indicates 0. If the bit is set to OFF, it indicates 1. Odd parity check bit Reserved, undefined, generally set to ON Reserved
6 7 8 (the most significant bit)
Principle of the DIP Switch Setting

As the DIP switch uses odd parity check, the number of 1s in the eight bits must be an odd number. The method for setting the bits is as follows: 1. 2. 3. Set bit 1 to bit 5 as required. Set bit 7 to ON. Check the number of 1s in the seven bits of the DIP switch. Note that the setting of bit 8 remains unchanged.
l l
If the number of 1s is even, set bit 6 to OFF. If the number of 1s is odd, set bit 6 to ON.
Assume that the subracks are numbered from 0 to 2 and that bit 8 is set to OFF. Table 9-2 describes the setting of the DIP switch in the case. Table 9-2 Setting of the DIP switch Sub rack No. 0 Bit 1 0 ON 1 1 OFF 2 0 ON 2 0 ON 0 ON 1 OFF 3 0 ON 0 ON 0 ON 4 0 ON 0 ON 0 ON 5 0 ON 0 ON 0 ON 6 0 ON 1 OFF 1 OFF 7 0 ON 0 ON 0 ON 8 1 OFF 1 OFF 1 OFF Setting of the DIP Switch
9.2 DIP Switches on the EIUa Board

The EIUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S1, S3, S4, S5, and S6.
Figure 9-2 shows the layout of the DIP switches on the EIUa board. Figure 9-2 Layout of the DIP switches on the EIUa board
(1) Sub-board
(2) Bottom plate
NOTE
l l l
When the 75-ohm coaxial cable is used, the signal transmission uses the E1 unbalanced mode. In this case, the TX end is grounded, that is, the corresponding bit of the DIP switch is set to ON. When the 120-ohm twisted pair cable is used, the signal transmission uses the E1(T1) balanced mode. In this case, the TX end is not grounded, that is, the corresponding bit of the DIP switch is set to OFF. All DIP switches of the EIUa board are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is faced to and combined with the bottom plate, and so the DIP switches are hidden in between.
Table 9-3 describes the DIP switches on the EIUa board.

The DIP switches are set for 75-ohm coaxial cables by default. The setting for the DIP switches on the active board must be the same as that for the DIP switches on the standby board. The RX end is not grounded either in balanced or in unbalanced mode.
9.3 DIP Switch on the PAMU Board

The PAMU provides an SW1 DIP switch. Figure 9-3 shows the layout of the DIP switch on the PAMU board. Figure 9-3 Layout of the DIP switch on the PAMU board
With four bits, the DIP switch SW1 is used to set the address of the PAMU board. To set the address, first remove the PAMU board and then set the SW1 as described in Table 9-5.

9.4 DIP Switches on the PEUa Board

The PEUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10. Figure 9-4 shows the layout of the DIP switches on the PEUa board. Figure 9-4 Layout of the DIP switches on the PEUa board
(1) Sub-board
(2) Bottom plate
Issue 04 (2010-03-25)
9-7

NOTE
l l
All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottom plate, so the DIP switches are not exposed. DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 9-4, there are two square holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Through the two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the subboard, and thus you can set S10 along the side.The direction of the arrow in Figure 9-4 is to turn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to OFF, turn them inwards. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency between the physical setting of S10 on the AEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting by command as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support for balanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you must also manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalanced mode. If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxial cable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signals are transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted pair cable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.
DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the PEUa board are used to enable or disable the grounding of 0 to 31 E1s/T1s/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 9-6 describes S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10.

9.5 DIP Switch on the PFCU Board

The PFCU board has one DIP switch, which is named SW1 and consists of four bits. The DIP switch is used to set the address of the PFCU board. When the PFCU board is configured in a fan box of the service subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 1. When the PFCU board is configured in the independent fan subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 4.
