Installing a Brocade MLX-16 router

Installation instructions are identical for interface, management, and switch fabric modules.

However, there are specific switch fabric and fan requirements for NI-MLX-10Gx8-M and

NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A modules in the 16-slot router. Refer to “Fan and switch fabric requirements for

NI-MLX-10Gx8-M and NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A, NI-MLX-1Gx48-T interface modules in 16-slot routers” on

page 72 and “Installing Brocade MLX-16 router modules” on page 71.

For instructions about installing 100xGbE interface modules, refer to “Installing 2x100GbE

interface modules in Brocade MLX routers” on page 45.

Modules for the Brocade MLX-16 router are hot-swappable, which means you can remove and

replace them while the router is powered on and running. However, for a graceful shutdown of the

links on switch fabric modules, it is recommended that you disable the switch fabric module before

removing it from the router.

For information about how to disable and re-enable power to interface modules, see “Disabling and

re-enabling power to interface modules” on page 223

DANGER

The intra-building ports of the equipment or subassembly are suitable for connection to

intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building ports of the equipment or

subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the outside plant

(OSP) or its wiring. These ports are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or

Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 5) and require isolation from the exposed

OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection to connect these

interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

Table 21 provides the router slot numbers into which you must install the modules. Markings for

the router slots are at the base of the slots.

Fan and switch fabric requirements for NI-MLX-10Gx8-M and NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A,

NI-MLX-1Gx48-T interface modules in 16-slot routers

If you install NI-MLX-10Gx8-M, NI-MLX-10Gx8-D or NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A interface modules in a 16-slot

router, you must replace the standard fans on the back of the router with high speed fans. You

must also replace standard switch fabric modules with high-speed switch fabric modules.

For power supply requirements for NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A interface modules, refer to Chapter 8,

“Hardware Specifications”.

NI-MLX-1Gx48-T interface modules cannot be installed in slots 2, 12, 14, and 15 in a 16-slot router.

NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A modules do not have any slot restrictions.
