Installing the Cabinet system
Cabinet and Chassis system mix-and-match configuration
In a mix-and-match scenario, a chassis can be connected to the fiber or IP
expansion cabinet(s) of a Cabinet system. In addition, the main cabinet of a
Cabinet system can be connected to fiber or IP expansion chassis.
Note: There are slightly different SSC card requirements for different
configurations of cabinets and chassis:
•
The Main Cabinet or Chassis of an IP expansion Small System requires
the SSC card vintage NTDK20HA or newer, or upgraded NTDK20EA-GA
(upgraded using the NTTK19 SSC Upgrade Kit).
•
The Main Cabinet or Chassis of a fiber expansion Small System
requires the SSC card vintage NTDK20HA or newer, or upgraded
NTDK20CA-GA.
•
IP expansion cabinets require the SSC card vintage NTDK20HA or
newer, or upgraded NTDK20CA-GA.
•
IP expansion chassis require the SSC card vintage NTDK20HA or
newer, or upgraded NTDK20EA-GA.
Note 1: The cabinets of the Cabinet system must support the faceplate
cabling that is used on all IP expansion daughterboards. If the current
cabinets do not support cable routing through the faceplate, they must
be upgraded to the NTDK18 cabinet kit.
Note 2: The grounding clips are situated differently on cabinets and
chassis. The grounding clip for the cabinet is mounted on the front of
the stiffener rail. Refer to
Figure 27 "EMC grounding clip for the cabinet"
. The grounding clip for the chassis is mounted on the fan
baffle on the lower right-hand side of the chassis. Refer to
"EMC grounding clip for the chassis" (page 85)
