Step 4 Grasp the power supply handle and pull the power supply halfway out of the bay. Then with your other hand under the power supply to support it, pull the power supply completely out of the bay.

Step 5 Repeat Step 1 through Step 4 for the other power supply.

To install the power shelf in the rack, follow these steps:

Step 1 Verify that your path to the rack is unobstructed, and ensure that the rack is stabilized.

Step 2 Position the power shelf in front of the rack. To prevent injury, avoid sudden twists or moves.

Step 3 Lift and slide the power shelf into the rack, pushing it back until the front mounting flanges meet the mounting strips or posts on both sides of the equipment rack.

Step 4 Position the power shelf so that the holes in the mounting flanges are aligned to those in the mounting strips, while keeping the mounting flanges flush against the posts or mounting strips.

Step 5 Insert the 10-32 x 3/8-inch slotted screws (two screws per side at a minimum) through the power shelf mounting flange and into the mounting strip. Tighten all screws using a 1/4-inch flat blade screwdriver.

Step 6 Replace the power supplies.

(a)Slide the power supply into the power supply bay. Push the power supply fully into the power shelf until the front is flush against the power shelf frame. To prevent damage to the backplane connector, do not jam the power supply into the bay.

(b)Push the self-locking ejector lever upward until the metal spring-clip locks into place (listen for the click). (See Figure 3-2or Figure 3-3.)

(c)Repeat Step a and Step b on the other power supply.

AS5800 specifications

Cisco Systems has long been a leader in the networking and telecommunications field, and its AS5800 series of routers exemplify this tradition. The AS5800, along with the AS5850, AS5350, AS5400, and AS5300, provides robust solutions for service providers and enterprise-level networking applications. Each of these models has distinct features and characteristics that cater to the evolving demands of internet traffic and data processing.

The Cisco AS5800 is designed for high-capacity routing and optimized for broadband services. It supports a wide range of services, including voice, data, and video applications, making it a versatile option for service providers looking to deliver integrated solutions. It is equipped with advanced quality of service (QoS) features that ensure bandwidth is allocated effectively, holding strong even under heavy traffic conditions.

In comparison, the AS5850 offers superior processing capabilities and is typically utilized in larger-scale implementations. This model supports high-density interfaces, allowing numerous connections without compromising performance. Its architecture includes enhanced MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) support, enabling more efficient traffic management and better utilization of network resources.

The AS5350 is known for its scalability and energy efficiency, ideal for voice-over-IP (VoIP) and media gateway applications. It supports various telephony features, such as protocol interworking and transcoding, making it a preferred choice for organizations focusing on digital voice technologies. The AS5300, while slightly older, continues to be a valuable asset for less demanding networks, offering reliable performance with VoIP capabilities and basic data applications.

The AS5400 bridges the gap between high-performance routing and operational efficiency. It incorporates Cisco's proprietary technologies to ensure seamless connectivity and robust failover systems. This model is highly regarded for its security features, protecting network integrity and providing peace of mind for businesses relying on sensitive data transfer.

Overall, Cisco’s AS5800 series showcases a progressive evolution of routing capabilities with enhanced features tailored for resilience, scalability, and performance. These routers not only address the technical needs of modern networks but also strategically position organizations for future growth in an increasingly digital world. Each model, with its unique attributes, continues to support the varied demands of global communication infrastructures.
