Installing Battery Backup Units
The Cisco Catalyst Industrial Router 8140 Heavy Duty Series Router (IR8140H or router) supports up to three
battery backup units (BBUs), which provide power to the router if the router AC power supply fails or is not
available. This section describes the BBU features and installation procedures.
These topics are discussed:

Battery Backup Operations

The battery backup unit (BBU) provides the router with an emergency power source if the AC power source
is unavailable.
The router supports up to three BBU units installed at one time. The units are mounted in the center-front of
the IR8140H. When you install 3 BBUs, up to 8 hours of battery backup power is available on a fully-loaded
system in the event of an AC power failure. BBUs can be replaced in the field.
The BBU can be installed in the router while the router is powered on and operating normally.
The BBU internal components include battery cells, a primary protection circuit, a fuel gauge, and a charger.

    Installing Battery Backup Units The Cisco Catalyst Industrial Router 8140 Heavy Duty Series Router (IR8140H or router) supports up to three battery backup units (BBUs), which provide power to the router if the router AC power supply fails or is not available.
  • Page 2: Bbu Status

    • All BBUs are completely discharged. • AC power to the router is restored. • The BBU is disabled with software commands (see Cisco Catalyst IR8140 Heavy Duty Series Router Software Configuration). Note...
  • Page 3: Battery Backup Mode

    The BBU shipping and receiving guidelines define the BBU SOC status and how it can be managed at this stage of the BBU life cycle: • Cisco ships BBUs with a minimum of 60% SOC from the Cisco contract manufacturer (CM). • Each BBU should have a minimum SOC of 50% upon receipt from the Cisco CM.
  • Page 4: Alignment Hole

    • Prior to connection to an AC source, the BBU shelf life is a minimum of 21 days. • When long term storage at a customer site is anticipated, Cisco requires that the BBUs be recharged prior to expiration of shelf life.
  • Page 5: Preparing To Install The Bbu

    • For routers under warranty, follow the standard Cisco RMA procedures. • If Cisco identifies a BBU or set of BBUs as a non-functional item that can be discarded without being returned for failure analysis, BBUs removed for replacement must be disposed of in accordance with local guidelines.
