long service life of the router, the installation site must meet the

following requirements:

The equipment must be installed in a clean, dry, and well ventilated

standard equipment room where temperature can be controlled

within a proper range. The equipment room must be free from

leaking or dripping water, heavy dew, and humidity.

Take dustproof measures in the equipment room. Dust will cause

electrostatic charges on the chassis and aect connections of metal

connectors and joints. This shortens equipment service life and may

cause failures of the router.

The installation site must be free from acidic, alkaline, or other

corrosive gases.

The temperature and humidity in the installation site must be within

5Power Supply Requirements

For hierarchical power supply protection, the current of each circuit breaker must be at least 16 A when the router adopts AC

power supply. Similarly, the current of each circuit breaker must be at least 50 A if the router adopts DC power supply.

The device supports front-to-rear and rear-to-front heat dissipation

modes. To ensure smooth and ecient heat dissipation, check the

airﬂow direction of the equipment room where the device is to be

installed, and ensure that cold air ﬂows into the device from the air

intake vent and leaves from the air exhaust vent.

The device is air-cooled. The air intake and air exhaust vents must

be free from obstacles, such as labels, to prevent the air intake and

air exhaust vents from being blocked.

You are advised to select the power cable's cross-sectional area

and the device's circuit breaker according to the site survey result.

A 19-inch standard cabinet must be used, with a depth of greater

than or equal to 800 mm (23.62 in.)

For a cabinet with doors, reserve at least 110 mm clearance

between the device's front panel and the cabinet's front door, and

at least 100 mm clearance between the device's rear panel and the

cabinet's rear door. Note that the 110 mm clearance applies to

scenarios where there is no optical attenuator and the optical ﬁbers'

LC connectors are 42 mm long at most. If there are optical

attenuators and the length of the optical ﬁbers' LC connectors is

greater than 42 mm, the clearance is 110 mm plus the cable routing

space for the optical attenuators and optical ﬁbers.

Each cabinet door must have 50% or higher porosity.

The cabinet must meet front-to-rear ventilation requirements.

The cabinet must be equipped with air ﬁlters.

The distance between front and rear mounting rails must be in the

optical ﬁber must be greater than or equal to 5D (D: diameter of the optical ﬁber).

Cover empty optical ports and idle optical modules with dust caps.

Do not bundle optical ﬁbers too tightly. You must be able to conveniently remove a

single ﬁber from the bundle.

Properly ﬁx optical ﬁbers onto the cabinet columns to prevent impact on the

surrounding devices.

Route cables.

Do not bundle or route outdoor cables (such as outdoor antenna feeders and

outdoor power cables) and indoor cables together in the cabinet or on the

cable tray.

NOTICE

To route optical ﬁbers along both sides of a device, ensure that at least 110

mm spacing be reserved between the device's front panel and the cabinet's

front door, and at least 100 mm spacing between the device's fan side and

the cabinet's rear door. Note that the 110 mm spacing applies to scenarios

where there is no optical attenuator and the optical ﬁbers' LC connectors are

42 mm long at most. If there are optical attenuators, the spacing is 110 mm

plus the optical attenuator height.

It is recommended that power cables and Ethernet cables are routed at a different side

of the device. Ensure that these cables do not span fan modules.
