3.4.1.1 Plan the rack installation
NOTE: The unit can also be wall mounted using dedicated brackets (ordered separately). For wall mounted
units – it is recommended to install the service modules first.
1. Verify that the height of the rack can support QX unit being installed, as well as additional
equipment, SCU-F, AC or DC power, and space for the broadband coax connection. Also
consider room for future expansions.
2. If the SCU-F supports more than one QX chassis – install in between QX units. See Figure
3-5.
3. To maintain low center gravity, ensure that heavier equipment is installed near the bottom
of the rack, and that the rack is loaded from top to bottom.
