3000/3010 System Manual
1.3.5
Mount Vertical Fiber Guides
If the Total Access 3000/3010 is to be used with the QFO-C Fiber Optic Transport
Module, your CO may dictate the use of fiber optic cable guides. These guides are
typically mounted on the frame; follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use with the
Total Access 3000/3010 shelf.
1.4 Connect Power and Ground
Dual power buses are provided with separate battery returns. Power connections use
two separate opposing blocks, labeled TS1 and TS2, located on the lower left side of
the backplane underneath the Pair 6/Pair 5 AMP connector. The terminals are on .4375
inch centers and allow for wire gauges of up to 10 AWG. There is a separate Frame
Ground terminal, labeled FR GND, located on the bottom left corner of the backplane,
and can accommodate up to 6 AWG wire. The two power inputs, TS1 and TS2, are
identical in function and can be used for redundant power configurations. The frame
ground terminal routes to mechanical contact points on the shelf and provides an
electrical connection to the shelf metalwork.
1.4.1
Connect Shelf to Frame Ground
The frame ground lug, located on the lower left corner of the backplane, can
accommodate from 6 to 10 AWG wire. When connecting the frame ground, use 6
AWG wire. To connect the ground to the Total Access 3000/3010 shelf:
1.Using an appropriate crimping tool and lug, fasten the lug to the ground wire.
2.Locate a nearby grounding screw on the equipment rack.
3.Secure the ground wire to frame ground using the lugged end of the grounding
wire.
4.Cut the ground wire length to reach from the grounding lug on the rack to the
Total Access 3000/3010 grounding terminal, located on the lower left corner of the
backplane. Leave enough slack to allow for tying to the rack, if required.
5.Using wire strippers, strip 5/8 inches of insulation from the grounding wire.
Apply
an approved antioxidant compound to the exposed wire.
6.Insert stripped end of the ground wire into the copper Total Access 3000/3010
grounding terminal.
7.Tighten the ground connection securely with a straight-slot-screwdriver.
1.4.2
Connect Fan Module to Frame Ground
The Total Access 3000/3010 Fan Module has a frame ground wire internal to the fan
unit. When the fan module is properly mounted to a correctly installed heat baffle, the
fan module is automatically connected to the frame ground.
