Chapter 1 Unpacking and Installing the CSS
Installing the CSS 11050 or CSS 11150
Caution Do not remove the CSS 11050 or CSS 11150 cover. There are
electrical shock hazards present in the unit if the cover is removed.
There are no serviceable or installable components available with
the CSS 11050 and CSS 11150 CSS.
Note Removing the CSS 11050 or CSS 11150 cover voids its warranty.
Installing the CSS 11050 or CSS 11150 as a Free-Standing Unit
Position the CSS 11050 or CSS 11150 on the selected flat surface. When installing
the CSS, note that all cables connect to the front of the unit with the exception of
the cable that connects to the Ethernet management port on the rear panel and the
power cord.
Rack-Mounting the CSS 11050 or CSS 11150
Before you rack-mount the CSS 11050 or CSS 11150:
• Determine if you want to front-mount or mid-mount the CSS chassis into the
cabinet. The difference between front-mount or mid-mount is:
– Front-mount sets the front edge of the unit even with the front edge of the
rack
– Mid-mounting the CSS sets the front edge of the unit past the front edge
of the rack
• Install the mounting brackets on the CSS. The rack position of the CSS
determines where you will install the mounting brackets on the CSS chassis.
Refer to the following section to install the mounting brackets.
Installing the Mounting Brackets
Before you begin, you will need the mounting brackets and eight screws shipped
in the Accessory kit accompanying the CSS 11050 and CSS 11150, and a #2
Phillips screwdriver.
