Chassis Installation
Unpacking the Chassis
Open the chassis box, remove the packing material, and check the chassis for any
visible damage. Contact the carrier for an immediate on-site inspection if damage is
found. If there are no visible problems, remove the unit from the box and set it on a flat
working surface.
Use the AC power cord packaged and supplied with the chassis. For systems shipped
to countries that utilize a 100–130-volt power system, the power cord is rated at 15
amps. Systems shipped to countries with a 208–240-volt power systems are
packaged with power cords rated at 10 amps. Older model chassis utilized 10
amp-rated power cords that are NOT approved for use with current model chassis on
100–130-volt power systems. The standard 10 amp power cords are acceptable for
use with the Fiber Transceiver. Refer to the Safety Guidelines on page for more
information.
R4300 modules are packaged individually and shipped in a carton separate from the
chassis, with their appropriate patch cables in each package.
Installing the Chassis
ClearCube offers two methods to mount chassis in a rack:
• Chassis Accessory Kit, included with all chassis
• Chassis Rapid Mount (CRM) kit, available separately.
The standard Chassis Accessory Kit fits all standard 19” racks and provides a set of
front and back mounting brackets, with the necessary hardware. The optional CRM kit
is specially designed to fit ClearCube-supplied cabinets and racks that feature four
posts with square mounting holes for snap-in rack nuts. While this is an
industry-standard style for mounting hardware, not all third-party racks can accept the
CRM kit.
If you plan to use a cabinet enclosure, ensure that you have at least 34 inches (86cm)
of interior depth measured from the front of the unit, to accommodate the cabling that
exits from the back of each chassis. The spacing between the front and back rails can
be no more than 30 inches (76cm).
CAUTION: To avoid equipment damage and potential personal injury,
install the chassis without blades installed.
