1 Introduction

This chapter contains information to help assemblers understand and use this document.

Note:

These instructions are not intended to be followed in any particular sequence; select and use the instructions as needed for your assembly.

1.1 Overview

This guide provides installation information for new systems or components based on Oracle Communications EAGLE releases 45.0 and later. For installation of previous releases, contact your sales representative.

Attention:

Be sure to wear a wrist strap connected to the wrist strap grounding point of the EAGLE before performing any installation procedures on the EAGLE.

1.2 Scope and Audience

This manual is meant for qualified technical installation and test personnel who must have thorough knowledge of telecommunication installation specifications, procedures, and equipment standards.

Note:

All personnel must be aware of and conform to the safety information provided in Safety Information and through out this document.

This manual does not cover testing or system software.

Hardware Operational Testing is designed to verify the functionality of the finalized construction of the hardware at the customer site. The demarcation line for the testing is, up to and including the patch panel, directly connected to the system. All installations are site specific, therefore a comprehensive site survey is necessary for all installations.

For hardware descriptions or basic site engineering information, refer to Hardware Reference included with your system documentation. For replacement procedures of existing hardware components, refer to Maintenance Guide included with your system documentation.

1.5 Environmental Requirements

The environmental conditions for the system must be maintained to the following specifications.

Temperature Variation

Typical environmental conditions are temperature and humidity controlled. With loss of environmental control the equipment covered in this manual complies with these conditions:

  • Operating: 5˚ C to 40˚ C (41˚ F to 104˚ F)

  • Storage: -5˚ C to 50˚ C (23˚ F to 122˚ F)

Relative Humidity

  • Operating: 5% to 85% non-condensing (maximum absolute humidity of 0.024 kg of water per kg of dry air)

  • Short Term Operating: 5% to 90% non-condensing (maximum absolute humidity of 0.024 kg of water per kg of dry air)

Elevation

Operating: 60m below sea level at ambient temperature of 30˚ C to +4000m above sea level at ambient temperature of 40˚ C.

Building Requirements

The building requirements are standard telephony industry requirements for equipment installation.

The building must provide a clear, uncluttered route between the loading/receiving dock and the planned location. In order to move the equipment to the proper location, recommend hall clearance is at least 4.5 feet, (1.4 meters) wide by 8 feet, (2.4. meters) tall.

Four feet, (1.2 meter) side aisles should be used to allow maneuvering frames into place and provide ample work space around the equipment.

1.6 Hardware Repair and Return

Any system components being returned for repair or replacement must be processed through the Oracle Return Material Authorization (RMA) procedures. A hardware repair is defined as an item returned to Oracle due to a failure, with the returned item being repaired and returned to the customer. It is essential that serial numbers are recorded correctly. RMAs cannot be created without a valid serial number. All repair and quality information is tracked by serial number. Table 1-1 lists the basic RMA types. Table 1-2 lists the RMA return reasons.

Table 1-1 Basic RMA Types
