About This Manual
Purpose
With the comprehensive deployment of high bandwidth optical access networks and
rapid development of high-definition video services, it is urgently demanded that IP
bearer networks be evolved in the direction of large capacity, high reliability, and strong
convergence. ZXR10 T8000 makes a fully new interpretation for this evolution.

Focusing on the requirements of core nodes of the Internet, P nodes of backbone networks,
and core egress nodes of large Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs), ZXR10 T8000 is
committed to constructing a flat network and emphasizing the long-term evolution of a
unified bearer network. Thus, ZXR10 T8000 is an ideal choice for network operators to
build their competitive networks.
This manual explains the concept and composition of a ZXR10 T8000 cluster. It also
describes how to install the two typical clusters (cluster 1+4 and cluster 2+8) and how to
connect related cascade cables.

1.1 Overview of Cluster


Background
With the diversification of network services, single-machine routers need endless
expansion to satisfy the growing network service requirements. The expansion of
single-machine routers requires the replacement of major components (such as main
control boards, line cards, switching network cards), and thus dramatically increases
the network construction cost. In addition, the environment (such as power, space, and
cooling) of the equipment room should also be taken into consideration.
If the expansion is realized by simply adding more load-shared routers, the problem of
expandability and maintenance efficiency should also be solved. Another problem is the
complexity of the structure of egress core nodes, which makes it difficult to design and plan
the routing policies and thus the link traffic can hardly be adjusted properly among egress
core nodes.

Concept and Functions of Cluster


Through centralized and integrated coordination and management, a router cluster can
make all single-machine service routers within the cluster system to work in a coordinated
manner. Compared with a single-machine router, a router cluster dramatically expands
the forwarding capability of routers.
With simplified network topology, a router cluster seems like one router to external
entities. A router cluster also saves the number of interconnected ports used by internal
nodes. As data can be forwarded between shelves through a switching matrix, a router
cluster provides higher efficiency than single-machine routers. A router cluster also has
these advantages: easier to adjust routes and traffic, more powerful manageability, higher
expandability, availability and maintenance efficiency.

ZXR10 T8000 Hardware Installation Guide (Cluster)

Two Typical Cluster Modes


ZXR10 T8000 cluster 1+4 and cluster 2+8 somewhat resemble each other. Both of them
use three-level CLOS switching networks, the same types of boards, and the same models
of interconnection optical cables.
However, cluster 1+4 and cluster 2+8 of ZXR10 T8000 are still different in terms of:
l Maximum switching capacity: The switching capacity of a ZXR10 T8000
single-machine router is 1.92Tbps, so the switching capacity of a cluster 1+4 system
can be expanded to 7.68T and that of a cluster 2+8 system can be expanded to
15.36T.
l Maximum number of line cards: A ZXR10 T8000 single-machine router provides up
to 16 line cards, so a cluster 1+4 system can provide up to 64 line cards and a cluster
2+8 system can provide 128 line cards.
The difference in switching capacity can also be seen from the perspective of
equivalent interface quantity. For example, a single machine supports 16 40G
interfaces, so a cluster 1+4 system can have up to 64 40G interfaces, and a cluster
2+8 system can have up to 128 40G interfaces.

1.2 Hardware Composition of Cluster


Central Switching Shelf and Line Card Shelf
In a cluster system, ZXR10 T8000 devices can be divided into central switching shelves
and line card shelves by functionality. They hold different types of boards.
The appearance of a central switching shelf and a line card shelf is as shown in Figure 1-1.

and power cords. For detailed installation procedure and caveats, refer to the ZXR10
T8000 Carrier-Class Router Installation Manual (Single Machine).
In addition, ensure that sufficient cluster dedicated fibers are ready and related cluster
boards are installed.

2.2 Installation of Cascade Connection Cables


2.2.1 Installing Cascade Data Cables
Data Cable Cascading Method
The cascade data cables in the ZXR10 T8000 cluster system are optical cables. It is
required that the cascade interfaces of each cascade switching network board (MSPU)
on a line card shelf (LCC) be connected to the cascade interfaces of a central switching
network board (CSFU) on the central switching shelf, so as to form a three-level CLOS
switching architecture. Thus, network processing boards (PFUs) on different line card
shelves can switch data smoothly.
Each MSFU on an LCC provides 8 cascade interfaces. One LCC provides up to 4 MSFUs.
That is, one LCC provides up to 32 cascade interfaces. Each CSFU on a CFC provides 8
cascade interfaces. One CFC provides up to 16 CSFUs. That is, one CFC provides up to
128 cascade interfaces.

2.2.2 Installing Cascade Control Cables


The cascade control cables in the ZXR10 T8000 cluster system are optical fibers. It is
required that the cascade interfaces of each main control board (MPU) on a line card shelf
(LCC) or central switching shelf (CFC) be connected to a central Ethernet switching board
(CESU) on an MPU, so as to form a plane control switching network in which all the MPUs
of the LCCs and CFCs, central switching network boards (CSFUs), cascade switching
network boards (MSFUs), and network processing boards (PFUs) are connected together.
Thus, the cascaded LCCs and CFCs form a unified logical system.
Before installing cascade fibers, reserve a cabling path and space, and prepare sufficient
cascade fibers.
To install cascaded control cables, follow these steps:
1. On an LCC, connect the two cascade GT interfaces of each MPU respectively to the
cascade interfaces of two CESUs, as shown in Figure 2-4.

of the LCCs and CFCs, central switching network boards (CSFUs), cascade switching
network boards (MSFUs), and network processing boards (PFUs) are connected together.
Thus, the cascaded LCCs and CFCs form a unified logical system.
Before installing cascade fibers, reserve a cabling path and space, and prepare sufficient
cascade fibers.
To install cascaded control cables, follow these steps:

1. On an LCC, connect the two cascade GT interfaces of each MPU respectively to the
cascade interfaces of two CESUs, as shown in Figure 3-2.
2. If the CESUs on different CFCs are mutually backed up, each MPU provide one
cascade GE interface to connect a CESU on another CFC.
3. Interconnect the two CFCs through the 10GE optical interfaces of their CSFUs, as
shown by the thick lines in Figure 3-2, so as to realize high speed data switching and
load sharing.
4. Stick labels on both sides of the fiber to describe the information about the fiber.
5. Use cable straps to organize and bind the fibers in compliance with related
specifications.

A.5 ESD Antistatic Safety


ESD is short for electrostatic discharge.
Static electricity is a natural phenomenon, which might be conducted by contact, rubbing
and so on. Static electricity features high voltage, low power, low current, and short
duration of effect. The static electricity generated by body movements, or the contact
with/separation from/rubbing of objects, or induction may reach several thousand volts
or even ten thousand volts.
Static electricity cause serious damage in various areas. The electricity caused by friction
and human body static electricity is a hazard in electronic industry. Therefore, we should
try to avoid damages to the equipment caused by the static electricity when in contact with
the equipment.
The antistatic requirements of the communication equipment room are presented below.
l The grounding resistance for static protection should be less than 10 Ω.
l The metallic brackets of the antistatic raised floor and the metallic layer of wall and
ceiling should be connected to the static ground, to form a shielding cover for the
whole equipment room.
l The communication equipment static ground and the terminal console grounding
cable should be connected respectively to the grounding busbar.
l The absolute value of static voltage should be less than 200 V.
Take the following measures in the equipment room to meet the requirements described
above.

l The operator should receive antistatic protection training before operation.

unpacked after the installation of rack and antistatic grounding cables.
l The tools used on site should be antistatic.
l Abide by the relevant grounding requirements when installing grounding cables.
l When plugging/unplugging the printed circuit board component and performing cable
connection, strictly observe the antistatic rules and wear antistatic wrist strap. The
grounding terminal of the antistatic strap should be inserted into the antistatic jack
on the rack. The strap and skin are reliably in contact. The current-limiting resistor
connected in series in the clasp connector of the strap protects human body and
static-sensitive components from static harm. The leakage resistance of the antistatic
strap should be within 1×105 – 1×107 Ω.
l Spare printed circuit board component and the component to be repaired should be
placed on the rack or in the antistatic shielding bag.
l The printed circuit board to be sent to the manufacturer or maintenance center for
repairs should be put in the antistatic shielding bag first; then packed with antistatic
marks on the package before delivery.
l The drawings, documents, files and books in the equipment room should be put in
the antistatic shielding bag. When used, the drawings, documents, files and books
should be far from the static-sensitive components.
l Visitors (including management personnel) must wear antistatic suit and shoes
before entering the equipment room. Visitors are not allowed to touch/plug/unplug
the printed circuit board components, or touch other components/spare parts if no
further antistatic measures are taken (for example, wear antistatic wrist strap).
l If the equipment room is too dry, use humidifier or take other measures to meet the
humidity requirements of the equipment room.
l Install ionized static eliminator if necessary, to remove the static electricity in the
insulation material and reduce the static voltage in the equipment room.
l The mats or gloves used in the equipment room should be antistatic.

l The whole equipment Radiated Emission (RE) meets the CISPR22 CLASS A
requirements.
l The whole equipment power interface CS meets the CISPR22 CLASS A
requirements.
For the whole equipment communication port CS, CISPR22 CLASS A requirements should
be met for non-shielded cables, while Class B requirements should be met for shielded
cables.

A.7 Lightning Protection Ground


Lightning strikes cause damages by electrostatic discharge and overvoltage. The
high voltage generated by the intense atmospheric movement brings about strong
transient discharge through the power cable or antenna (mainly long wire) of the
electrical equipment, leading to internal breakdown of electrical components (overvoltage
damage) or fuse blow (power damage) and resulting in permanent damages to electrical
equipment. The lightning protection and grounding requirements of the equipment (room)
are important.
For the equipment room power supply, lightning protection for the AC power panel should
reach Class B. While that for the DC power distribution board should reach Class C.
Detailed lightning protection requirements for equipment room power are described in
Table A-5.
