Install and Maintain the Front Door and its Components on the PTX10016 Router

The front door is required on the PTX10016 routers to protect fiber-optic cabling and to provide additional protection from electromagnetic interference (EMI). You can install the front door with or without the optional cable management system.

The PTX10016 supports two types of front doors:

  1. The door with the part number JNP10016-FRNT-PNL that supports side EMI deflectors.
  2. The door with the part number JNP10016-FRPNL1 that supports cable seals, side EMI deflectors, and an air filter.

Install the Front Door on the PTX10016 Router

Before you install the front door, ensure that you have the following tools and parts:

  • A Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2

  • Front door and side EMI deflectors (provided in the front door kit)

  • Base bracket set (two base brackets—one right base bracket and one left base bracket; provided)

  • Latch bracket set (two latch brackets—one right latch bracket and one left latch bracket; provided)

  • Eight Phillips flat-head mounting screws (provided in the front door kit)

  • An Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap (provided in the accessory kit)

  • (For JNP10016-FRPNL1) Five cable seals—Three cable seals for the right side and two cable seals for the left side (provided in the front door kit)

  • (For JNP10016-FRPNL1) Five cable seals—Six screws to attach the long cable seals (provided in the front door kit)

  • (For JNP10016-FRPNL1) Air filter (provided in the front door kit)

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 one of the ESD points on the chassis. An ESD point is located above the status LED panel on the front of the PTX10016 chassis (see Figure 1).

  3. Attach the right and left base brackets to the bottom front of the chassis. 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 the base brackets to the lower front of the chassis using four of the supplied flat-head screws. See Figure 3.

  4. Install the cable seals.
    1. Remove the top right mounting screw next to the RCB by using 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 cable seal and flange to the rack by using the Phillips screwdriver to tighten the mounting screw.
    3. The long cable seals are not interchangeable; there is a top right cable seal, a bottom right cable seal, a top left cable seal, and a bottom left cable seal. Attach the top right cable seal to the bottom right cable seal and the top left cable seal to the bottom left cable seal by using the six screws provided and a screwdriver. See Figure 4.

    4. Loosen the mounting screws next to the line card slots along one side of the chassis.
    5. Position the keyhole slots of one of the long cable seals over the mounting screws. The long cable seals are not interchangeable; there is a top right cable seal, a bottom right cable seal, a top left cable seal, and a bottom left cable seal. Install the cable seals so that the keyhole slots are on the inside, next to the line card. See Figure 5.

    6. 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.
    7. Repeat Step 4.d through Step 4.f for the other cable seal.
  5. 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 Line Card in the PTX10016 Router and Install the Cable Management System on the PTX10016 Line Card.
  6. Lift the front door and rest it on the two base brackets.
  7. Slide the door on to the bracket glides until it engages on the two ramps.
  8. Tilt the door towards the chassis until it is vertical with the chassis. The latch buttons on the side of the door locks the door in place. See Figure 6 or Figure 7).

  9. Install the side EMI deflectors.
    Note:

    There are mounting points to attach the side EMI deflectors on JNP10016-FRNT-PNL and three mounting points to attach the side EMI deflectors on JNP10016-FRPNL1.

    1. Align the knobs of the right side EMI deflector over the mounting holes on the right side of the front door. Turn the knobs clockwise to fasten the side EMI deflector to the front door. See Figure 8. The illustration shows the door with the part number JNP10016-FRPNL1. The procedure is similar for the door with the part number JNP10016-FRNT-PNL.
    2. Repeat the step to install the other side EMI deflector on the left side of the front door.

Install the Air Filter in the JNP10016-FRPNL1 Front Door

SUMMARY The JNP10016-FRPNL1 front door has an optional air filter (part number: JNP10016-FLTR) to keep the dust away from the chassis. You must replace the air filter every 6 months.

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.

Before you install the air filter on the front door:

  • Ensure that you have followed all safety warnings and cautions.

  • Ensure you understand how to prevent ESD damage. See Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage.

  • Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:

    • An ESD grounding strap (provided in the accessory kit)

    • Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2

To install the air filter in the JNP10016-FRPNL1 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 one of the ESD points on the chassis. An ESD point is located above the status LED panel on the front of the PTX10016 chassis (see Figure 1).
  2. Turn the knob of the air filter frame anti-clockwise and move it over the top of the front door (see Figure 9).

    CAUTION:

    Always keep the air filter in place while the device is operating. Because the fans are very powerful, they could pull small bits of wire or other materials into the chassis through the unfiltered air intake. This could damage the components.

    CAUTION:

    Do not operate the router for more than a few minutes without the air filter in place.

  3. Hold the air filter with both hands and insert the air filter into the front door until it stops (see Figure 10).
