Feature OverviewOn the Cisco uBR10012 universal broadband router, the Timing, Communication, and Control Plus (TCC+) card acts as a secondary processor that performs the following functions:

• Generates and distributes 10.24 MHz clock references to each cable interface line card.

• Generates and distributes 32-bit time stamp references to each cable interface line card.

• Allows software to independently power off any or all cable interface line cards.

• Drives the LCD panel used to display system configuration and status information.

• Monitors the supply power usage of the chassis.

Feature Overview

• Provides two redundant RJ-45 ports for external timing clock reference inputs such as a Global Positioning System (GPS) or BITS clock.

When two TCC+ cards are installed, they are configured as active (primary) and backup (redundant). If the TCC+ card in the first slot is working at system power-up, it automatically becomes the active card and the TCC+ card in the second slot becomes the backup card. The TCC+ cards monitor each other’s priority information, so that if the active card fails, the active card role is transferred to the redundant backup card without loss of data.

Each TCC+ card contains two RJ-45 connectors labeled Primary and Secondary, on the front panel. See Figure 1 on page 3. These connectors are for a primary and secondary (redundant) Stratum 3 external clock reference source that is traceable to a Stratum 1 clock source. The external reference source allows the Cisco uBR10012 router’s reference clock to be synchronized to the Stratum 1 clock source, providing a free-running DOCSIS-quality clock reference and time stamp to the cable interface line cards.

Caution The TCC+ card can connect only to a national clock source such as a GPS receiver or Building Integrated Timing Supply (BITS) clock. The Cisco uBR10000 series router does not support directly connecting the RJ-45 connectors on the TCC+ cards to an outside plant line or telco-provided T1/E1 clock source. You can use an outside or telco-provided T1/E1 clock source only by connecting the source to the TCC+ cards by using a CSU/DSU or other equipment that is approved to FCC part 68 and ANSI/UL1950 for the connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN).

If present, the primary external clock reference on the active TCC+ card is used. If it is lost, the secondary clock reference (if present) on the active TCC+ card is used. If the active TCC+ card stops functioning, control is transferred to the backup TCC+ card, which then uses its primary and secondary clock reference sources. If neither card has a valid clock reference source, the active TCC+ card uses its own internal clock to provide the DOCSIS-quality clock reference and time stamp.

Note You do not need to provide an external clock reference source to the TCC+ cards. However, you must always have at least one functioning TCC+ card installed in the Cisco uBR10012 router chassis for proper systems operation.

Figure 1 Cisco TCC+ Front Panel

The front panel on the TCC+ card has seven LEDs. They are labeled POWER, STATUS, MAINTENANCE, PRESENT, and ACTIVE. The second set of PRESENT and ACTIVE LEDs are associated with the primary and secondary external clock reference inputs.

Table 1 describes the LEDs on the TCC+ card.

Safety Warnings

Electrical Equipment GuidelinesFollow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:

• Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working.

• Disconnect all power and external cables before moving a chassis.

• Do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist.

• Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.

• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe.

• Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge DamageElectrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which occurs when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, can result in complete or intermittent failures. The AC-input power shelf and its AC power modules contain a printed circuit card that is fixed in a metal carrier. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the cards from ESD, use an anti-static strap each time you handle the modules.

Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

• Always use an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact. Before removing a card from the chassis, connect the equipment end of the strap to a bare metal, unpainted surface on the chassis or rack-mount.

• Handle components by the carrier edges only; avoid touching the card components or any connector pins.

• When removing a module, place it on an anti-static surface or in a static-shielding bag. If the module will be returned to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding bag.

OL-5094-01

Removing and Replacing the Cisco TCC+ Card

• Avoid contact between the modules and clothing. The wrist strap protects the card from ESD voltages on the body only; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

Caution For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the anti-static strap. The measurement should be between 1 and 10 megohms.

Removing and Replacing the Cisco TCC+ CardTo install a new TCC+ card or to replace an existing card, use the procedures that follow.

Tip If two TCC+ cards are installed for redundant operation, one of the cards can be removed and replaced without interrupting system operations.

EquipmentTo remove and replace an individual Cisco LCD module, you need the following:

• Replacement TCC+ card, product order number UBR10-TCC+-T1=.

• ESD-preventive wrist strap.

Unpack the TCC+ CardTo unpack the TCC+ card, complete the following steps:

Step 1 Make sure that you are properly grounded with an ESD-preventive ground strap.

Step 2 Open the shipping box and remove the TCC+ card.

Step 3 Place the TCC card on an anti-static surface.

.

Remove the TTC+ Card

Step 1 Make sure that you are properly grounded.

Step 2 Clear enough interface and power cables to allow sufficient space to work.

Step 3 If installing a new TCC+ card, remove the blank slot cover and discard it; then, proceed to Step 1. Otherwise, disconnect the T1 clock cables from the TCC+ card being replaced.

Step 4 Unscrew the top and bottom captive screws on the TCC+ card (Figure 2 on page 10).

Step 5 Pull the TCC+ card out of the slot and place it on an anti-static surface or in an anti-static bag.

Removing and Replacing the Cisco TCC+ Card

Replace the TCC+ Card

Step 1 Pick up the replacement TCC+ card, and position it in front of the card slot.

Step 2 Carefully align the upper and lower edges of the line card with the upper and lower guides in the chassis, and slide the line card into the slot, so that it firmly seats in the backplane connectors (Figure 4).

Figure 4 Inserting the TCC+ Card

Step 3 Secure the line card in the chassis by tightening the top and bottom captive screws (Figure 2 on page 10).

Caution Always tighten the captive screws on each TCC+ card. These screws prevent accidental removal and provide proper grounding for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding.

Step 4 When fully inserted, the TCC+ card cycles through its power-on self-test. The Fail LED stays on briefly (about 5 to 6 seconds) and then shuts off. If the Fail LED remains on or is flashing, see the “Troubleshooting the Cisco TCC+ Card” section on page 12.

Step 5 Connect the T1 clock cables to the TCC+ card.

Step 6 Configure the TCC+ card, if necessary.

Refer to “Formatting Flash Memory Cards and Disks” section in the Cisco uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router Hardware Installation Guide or the Cisco uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router Software Configuration Guide, see the “Related Documentation” section on page 14.

Note It is not necessary to configure the TCC+ card if you are installing a replacement card in the identical slot. The system automatically downloads the necessary configuration information from the performance routing engine (PRE).

OL-5094-01

Troubleshooting the Cisco TCC+ Card

Troubleshooting the Cisco TCC+ CardCheck the following if a problem appears on one of the PRE modules:

• If both PREs are operating correctly, check the POWER LEDs on each TCC+ card. Are the POWER LEDs on each TCC+ card on (green)?

– If no, remove the TCC+ card and reinsert it, making sure that it firmly connects to the backplane and that both captive screws are tightly connected.

– If yes, proceed to the next step.

• Is the STATUS LED on the primary TCC+ card on (green) to indicate that it is the primary card?

Is the STATUS LED on the secondary TCC+ card flashing (green) to indicate that it is the redundant card?

– If no, check that the version of Cisco IOS you have loaded on the router supports the TCC+ card.

• Do the CMTS modems go offline and are unable to get into the init() state?

– If yes, check whether a DOCSIS Timing Interface (DTI) clock source is connected to the TCC+ card, and remove the DTI clock source.

Use Table 3 to continue troubleshooting the TCC+ cards.

Table 3 TCC+ Card Faults and Recommended Responses

Fault Type Response

The show cable clock command shows that no TCC+ cards are installed:

Router# show cable clock

Number of TCCplus Cards in the Chassis: 0TCCplus Cards are not yet configured

Router#

The console also typically displays the error message %UBR10KTCC-1-NOTCC: No working TCCplus card available in the system.

1. Verify that at least one TCC+ card is installed in the chassis. If not, install a TCC+ card, because it is required for normal operations.

2. If only one TCC+ card is installed, it might not have been properly initialized, so remove it from its slot, wait approximately 30 seconds, and reinsert it.

3. If only one TCC+ card is installed, its slot might be fault, so remove the card from its slot and install it in the other TCC+ card slot.

4. Replace the TCC+ card with a known, working TCC+ card.

An IPC error message (IPCGRP-3-SYSCALL) occurs for the TCC+ card slots (slot 1/1 or slot 2/1).

1. If this message results after a line card is reset using the hw-module reset command, it is an informational-only message that indicates only that an IPC message was missed while the processor was performing the reset of the line card. This error message can be ignored.

2. Upgrade the Cisco uBR10012 router to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(11)BC2 or later release.

12Cisco uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router TCC+ Card

OL-5094-01

Troubleshooting the Cisco TCC+ Card

The console displays the following error message:

%UBR10KTCC-1-BADTCC: TCCplus card in slot put under maintenance: reason

The Cisco uBR10012 router detected that the TCC+ card in the indicated slot was faulty. If a redundant card is installed, the system passed control to it. The faulty TCC+ card has been put into maintenance mode. The following errors are possible:

• Holdover rcvd by Active Card—The active TCC+ card generated a holdover interrupt to indicate an error in its clock source.

• Holdover rcvd by Backup Card—The backup TCC+ card generated a holdover interrupt to indicate an error in the clock source being received by either the Active or Backup card.

• Bad Clock reported by CLC(s)—A cable interface line card reported that the clock signal being received from the TCC+ card is faulty.

• TRU Loss of Sync—The clock hardware on the TCC+ card reported a

• Unknown—An unknown failure occurred, possibly a hardware failure.

To correct the problem:

1. If an external clock source is being used, check that the clock source is valid national clock source, such as a GPS receiver or BITS clock.

2. If the clock source is valid, remove and reinsert the faulty TCC+ card.

3. If the MAINTENANCE LED on the faulty TCC+ card is still lit, replace the card.

The show controllers clock-reference command displays compare errors between the two TCC+ cards installed in the Cisco uBR10012 router.

1. If this occurs at system startup or only occasionally at other times, this error can be ignored, because the system typically records a slight delay when the TCC+ cards synchronize with each other. These initial compare errors can be ignored and cleared with the cable clock clear-counters command.

2. If this error repeatedly occurs, it could indicate a hardware problem with one of the TCC+ cards. Try replacing each card to see if the problem disappears.

The show controllers command for a cable interface displays the message “Timestamp is from local oscillator.” This command should show that the timestamp is coming either from an external source or from the TCC+ card.

1. Verify that at least one TCC+ card is installed in the chassis. If not, install a TCC+ card.

2. Verify that a valid national clock source, such as a GPS receiver or BITS clock, is plugged into the TCC+ card’s RJ-45 connector.

3. Replace the TCC+ card.
