Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit. Always check.

If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:

Use caution, and do not become a victim yourself.

Turn off power to the system.

If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, determine the condition of the victim and then call for help.

Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac compressions; then take appropriate action.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. It occurs when electronic printed-circuit cards are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD prevention procedures when removing and replacing cards. Ensure that the router chassis is electrically connected to earth ground. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely channel unwanted ESD voltages to ground. To properly guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate effectively. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.


Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10 megohms (Mohms).

Replacing the Cover on the Cisco 3725 Router

After you finish installing the Cisco redundant power supply interface module, follow these steps to replace the cover:


Step 1 Place the chassis bottom so that the front panel is closest to you.

Step 2 Hold the cover so that the tabs at the rear of the cover are aligned with the chassis bottom.

Step 3 Push the cover toward the rear, making sure that the cover tabs fit under the chassis rear-panel and the rear-panel tabs fit under the cover.

Step 4 Slide the cover slightly to the left to lock the cover into position (number 1 in Figure 31).

Step 5 Lower the front of the cover onto the chassis (number 2 in Figure 31).

Step 6 Fasten the cover with the five screws you set aside earlier.

Step 7 If your router has a blank coverplate in the upper right network-module slot, tighten the captive screw at the left edge of the blank cover.


Note This screw is identified by the following stamped lettering: LOOSEN SCREW TO REMOVE COVER.

index.htm


Caution Do not connect the network interface cables or power cord, or turn on power to the router, until you have connected the chassis to the building ground.


Warning This unit is intended for installation in restricted access areas. A restricted access area is where access can only be gained by service personnel through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.


Connecting the Cisco 3725 Router to Building Ground

To connect the building ground wire to the Cisco 3725 router, follow these steps:


Note The installation must comply with all applicable national and local codes.



Warning Use copper conductors only. To see translations of the warnings that appear in this publication, refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information document that accompanied this device.



Step 1 Crimp a size AWG 6 (minimum 13 mm2) ground wire in the new equipment building system (NEBS) ground lug.

Step 2 Attach the ground lug to the Cisco 3725 chassis, using the supplied screws as shown in Figure 32.

Step 3 Connect the other end of the ground wire to a suitable grounding point at your site.


Reinstalling the Cables and Connecting to the Cisco 600W RPS System Module

To complete the installation, do the following:


Step 1 Reinstall the network interface cables.

Step 2 Connect the Cisco 600W RPS system module cable into the power connection at the back of the Cisco 3725 router.

Step 3 Tighten the plug in place using the two screw-downs on either side of the plug.

Figure 33 Connecting the Cisco 3725 to the Cisco 600W RPS Module

Step 4 Connect the other end of the power supply cable to the connector at the rear of the Cisco 600W RPS module.


Note The power supply cable can be a one-to-one cable or a two-to-one cable.

Powering On the Router


Warning The plug-socket combination must be accessible at all times because it serves as the main disconnecting device.



Caution To ensure adequate cooling, never operate the router unless the unit is completely closed.


Warning This product relies on the building's installation or power supply for short circuit (over current) protection. Ensure that a Listed and Certified fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 60 VDC, 15A is used on all current-carrying conductors.


To power on the router, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Power on the router.

Step 2 Verify that he LED labeled SYSTEM on the front panel is on.

If you encounter problems when you power on the router, see the "About Troubleshooting the Redundant Power Supply Interface Module Installation" section that follows.


About Troubleshooting the Redundant Power Supply Interface Module Installation

Check the following items to help isolate problems with the Cisco 3725 redundant power supply interface module installation:

With the power switch on, is the power LED on the front panel on?

If not, check the AC input, AC source, router circuit breaker, and power supply cable.

Check the interface module connection to the motherboard.

If the power LED is still off, the problem might be a redundant power supply failure.

Does the router shut down after being on a short time?

Check the fans. If the fans are not working, the router overheats and shuts itself down.

If the fans are not working, check the power supply connections to the fans.

Ensure that the chassis intake and exhaust vents are clear.

Check the environmental site requirements in your router installation and configuration guide.

Check the interface module output voltages and Cisco 600W RPS output voltages.
