Install the Front Door on a PTX10008 Router

The front door is required on the PTX10008 to protect fiber-optic cabling and to provide additional protection from electromagnetic interference (EMI). The front door can be installed with or without the optional cable management system.

The front door is available in two models:

  • JNP10008-FRNT-PNL, without an air filter

  • JNP10008-FRPNL1, with an air filter

Both models are covered in the following procedures.

Be sure you have the following tools and parts before you begin:

  • A Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2

  • Front door (provided with the router chassis)

  • Right base bracket (provided, interchangeable on JNP10008-FRNT-PNL)

  • Left base bracket (provided, interchangeable on JNP10008-FRNT-PNL)

  • Latch bracket set (two interchangeable latch brackets, one right base bracket, and one left base bracket provided)

  • Eight Phillips flat-head mounting screws (provided)

  • Three cable seals - Two seals for the right side and one for the left side (provided with JNP10008-FRPNL1)

To install the front door:

  1. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD grounding strap around your bare wrist and connect the other end of the strap to the ESD point on the front of the chassis. See Figure 1.

  2. Remove the plastic bag that is taped to the front door. This bag holds the brackets and screws.
  3. Attach the right and left base brackets to the bottom front of the chassis. Use the Phillips screwdriver to attach the base brackets to the lower front of the chassis using four of the supplied flat-head screws.
    Note:

    The base brackets are larger than the latch brackets. The right and left base bracket cannot be interchanged (see Figure 2).

  4. Attach the two latch brackets to the chassis. Screw holes are located for each latch bracket between the top line card slot and the Routing and Control Boards (RCBs). Use the Phillips screwdriver to attach two supplied screws for each bracket. See Figure 3.

  5. Install the cable seals.
    1. Remove the top right mounting screw next to the RCB with the Phillips screwdriver. The mounting screws attach the chassis flanges to the 4-post rack.
    2. Align the hole of the RCB cable seal over the mounting hole in the flange. Fasten the seal and flange to the rack using the Phillips to tighten the mounting screw.
    3. Loosen the five mounting screws next to the line card slots along one side of the chassis.
    4. Position the keyhole slots of one of the long cable seal over the mounting screws. The long cable seals are not interchangeable; there is a right and left seal. Install the seals so that the keyhole slots are on the inside, next to the line card. See Figure 4.

    5. Slide the keyhole slot down behind the mounting screws and align the cable seals with the chassis. Tighten the mounting screw with a Phillips screwdriver.
    6. Repeat Step 5.c through Step 5.e for the remaining cable seal.
  6. If you have not yet installed the line cards, or the optional cable management system, do that now before attaching the door. See Install a PTX10008 Line Card and Install the PTX10008 Cable Management System.
  7. Lift the front door and rest it on the two base brackets.
  8. Slide the door back on the bracket glides until it engages on the two ramps.
  9. Tilt the door toward the chassis until it is vertical with the chassis. The blue release buttons on the side of the door allow the door to latch into place. See Figure 5 for JNP10008-FRPNL1 front door, or Figure 6 for JNP10008-FRNT-PNL front door.

  10. Note:

    The number of mounting points to attach the side baffle vary between the two front door models:

    • JNP10008-FRNT-PNL, without an air filter—Two mounting points

    • JNP10008-FRPNL1, with an air filter—Three mounting points

     Install the side baffles.
    1. Align the knobs of the right baffle over the mounting holes on the right side of the front door. Turn the knobs clockwise to fasten the baffle to the front door. See Figure 7 for JNP10008-FRPNL1 front door, or Figure 8 for JNP10008-FRNT-PNL front door.
    2. Repeat step 10.a to install the left baffle on the left side of the front door.

Install the Air Filter

If you have the JNP10008-FRPNL1 model of the front door, there is also an air filter to install. Read and follow the following procedure to add the air filter.

Note:

The maximum supported temperature for normal operation must be lower by 3° C when the air filter is new and lower by 6° C when the air filter is at the end of its life.

To install the air filter in the front door:

  1. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD grounding strap around your bare wrist and connect the other end of the strap to the ESD point on the front of the chassis. See Figure 9.

  2. Turn the knob of the air filter frame anti-clockwise and move it over the top of the front door. See Figure 10.

    CAUTION:

    Juniper recommends installing the air filter to prevent harmful debris from entering the chassis.
  3. Hold the air filter with both hands and insert it into the front door until it stops. See Figure 11.

  4. Move the air filter frame over the front door and turn the knob on the air filter frame clockwise back in place.
Note:

You must replace the filter every 6 months.
