ACX7020 Chassis

The router chassis is a rigid sheet metal structure that houses all the router components. The ACX7020 router has a 1-U fixed form factor with two fixed power supply modules (PSMs) that support AC or DC power. The ACX7020 router cooling system consists of an air filter and a fixed fan tray with three fans that provide side-to-side cooling.

The port panel of an ACX7020 router has the following port configurations:

• Four 25GbE small form-factor pluggable 28 (SFP28) ports (port 0 through 3) that operate at 25-Gbps speed with SFP28 transceivers, 10-Gbps speed with SFP+ transceivers or 1-Gbps speed with SFP transceivers.

• Sixteen 10GbE small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) ports (port 4 through 19) that operate at 10-Gbps speed with SFP+ transceivers, or 1-Gbps speed with SFP transceivers.

The management panel on ACX7020 routers is located on the front of the router.

The management panel on an ACX7020 router displays the router product number, and it consists of the following components:

• USB Type-A port for image updates.

• Management (MGMT) port—10/100/1000BASE-T port that uses an RJ-45 connector to connect to a management device for out-of-band management.

• Console (CON) port—Uses an RJ-45 connector to connect to a console management device.

• Reset (RESET) button to reset the router.

The ACX7020 router is equipped with three timing ports.

2 — 10M IN port

Here's the definition of the ports and labels on the timing ports.

• 10M IN—10-MHz input clocking port for connecting to external clock signal sources. The clocking port synchronizes clock inputs based on the clock’s priority.

• 10M OUT—10-MHz output clocking port to provide a reference clock signal.

• 1PPS OUT—1-pulse per second (PPS) output port for time synchronization.

The ACX7020 routers have a management port that has separate LEDs to indicate link status and link activity.

2 — Status LED

Each ACX7020 router has four status LEDs that indicate the system status. You can find these LEDs to the left of the USB port

2 — MST (Primary)	4 — SYS (System)

Table 2 describes the chassis status LEDs on ACX7020 routers, including their colors, states, and the corresponding status they represent. You can view the colors of the LEDs remotely through the CLI by running the operational mode command show chassis led.

Each ACX7020 network port has a single LED to indicate link status, activity on the link, or a fault condition.
