2.2 Functions  
On the Secure Router 8012, the two types of power modules (AC input and DC input) are  
inserted into the backplane from the back.  
In normal situations, two power modules work in 1+1 hot backup mode. The AC and DC  
power modules are the PSR550-A and the PSR550-D respectively. The power line uses the  
–48V feeder cable of D 3PIN.  
The power module has the following functions:  
z
When power input is interrupted or an error occurs with one power module, the other  
module is not affected and can provide power to the entire system. If the system needs to  
be powered off, you must power off all the configured power modules.  
z
The power module provides protection functions, including input over-voltage protection,  
input under-voltage protection, output over-flow protection, output over-voltage  
protection, output short-circuit protection, and over-heat protection.  
z
The power module supports the hot swap feature. Switching the power module does not  
affect the running system.  
If you want to install a Secure Router 8012 in the communication equipment room, make sure that the  
power distribution cabinet can provide a lightning protection box or arrester against the current of 20 KA  
and above.

3.2 Functions  
The revolution of the fan module is controlled by the RPU. Properly working fans keep the  
Secure Router 8012 operating at the normal temperature. The fan module functions include  
the following:  
z
The fan module can modify the revolution automatically. It configures two parameters,  
the low-temperature threshold and the high-temperature threshold. The low-temperature  
threshold and the high-temperature threshold correspond with revs of 100% and 50%  
respectively. For temperature operation requirements, see Chapter 1, “Overview.”  
z
As the failure of one fan does not affect the operation of other fans, the system can still  
operate at the normal temperature.  
z
The system sends out rotation stop alarm signals if any fan fails.

You can insert the RPU into slots 9 and 10 on the top of the front panel of the chassis. You can  
insert the NPU into the two slots on the top of the rear panel of the chassis. The slots for  
NPUs and RPUs are positioned back to back.  
You can insert an FIC into any of the slots 1 to 8.  
You can insert an HIC into any of the slots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 7. The type of HIC, however, is  
determined by the working mode of the router.  
The Secure Router 8012 can operate in two modes: ordinary mode and extended mode. For  
information about the differences between the two modes, see Table 4-1.  
Before hot swapping, run the preplug slot Existing slot number command in the system view.  
When information appears indicating that hot swapping is permitted, you can insert or remove  
boards. Nortel recommends that you substitute the same type of boards during hot swapping.

During initialization, the system mode is determined as follows: The router scans slot 1, 3, 5, and 7 in  
sequence; when the first HIC is found, the router determines the system working mode according to the  
card type; in the successive scanning, if the router finds that an HIC in a slot breaks the card mixture rule,  
the slot is marked as ABNORMAL and is not initialized.  
During hot swapping, the system mode is determined as follows: The router detects whether the type of  
card that is inserted into slot 1, 3, 5, or 7 conflicts with the current system mode; if yes, the slot is  
marked as ABNORMAL and is not initialized.

4.2 RPUs  
This section introduces the functions of the Routing Process Unit (RPU), the boards, the  
interfaces, and the technical specifications for the Secure Router 8012.  
The RPU is located in either of the two slots on the top of the chassis. The RPU is installed in  
the front panel and corresponds with the NPU in the system. The Secure Router 8012 has two  
types of RPUs: ERPUA (with a memory of 512 MB) and ERPUB (with a memory of 1 GB).  
For normal operation, the master RPU and slave RPU must be the same type.  
4.2.1 Functions  
The RPU is the main control board of the Secure Router 8012. It consists of the PowerPC  
processor, system controller bridge, storage, and other attached devices. The RPU monitors  
the system ports, manages the equipment, and processes various software protocols.  
The RPU has the following functions:  
z
processes the routing protocol  
z
receives and sends the FIC packets  
z
manages the interface state  
z
monitors the state of the power system  
z
monitors the state of the fan system  
z

DTE and DCE  
Generally, the 4SAE card is connected with a modem and serves as a dialing port. In this case,  
you need to set the appropriate baud rate.  
The synchronous serial port can work in either DTE mode or DCE mode. For two directly  
connected devices, one device works in DTE mode and the other works in DCE mode . In this  
case, the DCE device offers the synchronous clock and specifies the baud rate, while the DTE  
device receives the synchronous clock and performs communication based on the specified  
baud rate.  
The router usually serves as a DTE device. For the type (DCE or DTE) of the device  
connected with the router, refer to the manual accompanying the device.  
Table 4-33 describes the specified device types.

Synchronous interface rate and transmission distance  
In different working modes, the synchronous serial port supports different electric signal  
standards and baud rates. The configured baud rate and the selected cable determine the  
maximum transmission distance of the signal. For the relationship between cable type, baud  
rate, and maximum transmission distance of signals, see Table 4-34.  
If the V.24 cable is used, the serial interface baud rate cannot exceed 64 kbit/s.

4.10.1 Functions  
The Packet over SDH/SONET (POS) interface is a high-speed transport interface that uses the  
SONET/SDH network as the transport interface. In the sending direction, the POS interface  
encapsulates IP data packets received from the Network Process Unit (NPU) with the PPP or  
HDLC protocol, and then maps the encapsulated data packets to the payload of the  
SONET/SDH frame for transmission on the optical network. In the receiving direction, the  
POS interface receives optical signals, processes them through reverse operations, and then  
sends them to the NP.  
The POS interface board can be used to connect Secure Router 8012 routers to SONET/SDH  
devices, or to connect Secure Router 8012 routers directly.  
One POS interface module can be channelized into 63 E1 channels, or 84 T1 channels.  
The functions of interface are as follows:  
z
supports hardware flow control and software resetting  
z
supports various link layer protocols, such as PPP, Frame Relay, and HDLC  
z
supports the working modes of FPGA loopback, the system-side loopback of the  
physical chip, and the line-side loopback

5.5 Ethernet cable  
5.5.1 Introduction  
The Ethernet cable consists of two types: straight-through cable and crossover cable.  
Straight-through cable  
Straight through cable is also called standard cable. The wire sequences of the twisted pairs  
crimped in the RJ45 connectors at both ends are the same. Straight-through cable connects a  
terminal device (a PC or the router) to a hub or a LAN switch. The cables delivered with the  
equipment are straight-through cables.  
Crossover cable  
Crossover cable is also called direct connection cable. The wire sequences of the twisted pairs  
crimped in the RJ45 connectors at both ends are different. Crossover cable connects two  
terminal devices (a PC or the router).  
5.5.2 Structure  
Both straight-through cable and crossover cable use shield cables and RJ45 connectors. Figure  
5-3 and Figure 5-4 show the pin assignment.

SFP is the plug-in type. You can plug both multi-mode modules and single-mode modules into  
the interface board. Different optical modules and optical connectors require different fiber.  
The multi-mode interface module connects with the multi-mode fiber; the single-mode  
module connects with the single–mode fiber.  
The interfaces of FIC low-speed ATM 155M optical modules are equipped with a Square  
Connector (SC) optical connector as shown in Figure 5-5. Therefore, Nortel recommends that  
you use the fiber with SC/PC optical connectors. In addition, the optical interfaces of  
100Base-FX Ethernet optical interface module, Gigabit Ethernet optical interface module, the  
HIC high-speed ATM 155M optical interface module and POS optical interface module  
should use the Lucent Connector (LC) optical connector as shown in Figure 5-6. Therefore,  
Nortel recommends that you use the fiber with LC/PC optical connectors.  
5.6.2 Optical connector  
The Secure Router 8012 uses two types of optical connectors:  
z
SC/PC optical connector  
z
LC/PC optical connector  
The following sections describe their outlines, operations, and precautions for plugging in and  
unplugging the connectors.

5.10 HSSI cable  
5.10.1 Introduction  
High Speed Serial Interface cable has two types: the DTE-to-DCE cable (HSSI interface cable)  
and the DTE-to-DTE cable (null modem cable). All are 3 m in length.  
DTE-to-DCE cable  
DTE-to-DCE cable is the straight-through cable. The line sequences of the twisted pairs in the  
(DB-50) SCSI-II connectors at the two ends are the same. They are used for the connection  
between the HSSI interface and the communication device in the middle.  
DTE-to-DTE cable  
DTE-to-DTE cable is the crossover cable. The line sequences of the twisted pairs in the  
(DB-50) SCSI-II connectors at the two ends are different. They are used for back-to-back  
connection among the DTE devices.  
5.10.2 Structure  
DTE-to-DCE cable and DTE-to-DTE cable are both shielded twisted-pair cables. They use  
the (DB-50) SCSI-II and have similar pin assignment as shown in Figure 5-18.
