Moving a Node
The requirements for moving a node depend on the distance involved. In all cases however, the node
must be disconnected from the network by:
• Removing connections (delcon).
• Downing trunk lines (deltrk, dntrk)
• Downing circuit lines (delcln, dncln).
• Removing all data cables.
• Turning off power. For DC-powered systems, do this at the building site’s dedicated branch circuit
breakers rather than at the PEM circuit breaker.
• Removing any bolts holding the cabinet to the floor or any other structure.
The remainder of the task is the physical move of the unit. Use the pallet and box that shipped with the
original packing to move the node a long distance. For shorter moves of a standalone unit, screw the feet
up into the unit to expose the wheels then roll the unit.
Caution When moving a Cisco cabinet, do not push the cabinet at its sides. Instead, grip the cabinet at the front
or back edges to maneuver it to the new location.
