Cabinet Installation

Depending on the MTS type, installing the MTS cabinet within a site may include wall fixing or floor

fixing.

IMPORTANT:

To enable service access and assure the passive cooling ventilation, the free space above the

cabinet must be 20 cm at minimum The antenna cabling may require additional space.

Allow at least 80 cm of floor space in front of the cabinet to permit access during installation.

Although all maintenance, expansion, cabling, and antenna connections can be performed from

the front or top. The required space towards the wall is ensured by an integrated spacer on the

back of the cabinet.

Secure the cabinet to the floor for optimum stability.

Cabinet Bracing Considerations

The MTS cabinet is self-supporting. In seismically active areas, additional bracing of the cabinet could

be required. However, the bracing hardware must be locally procured.

NOTICE: There are no specific procedures within this manual for bracing cabinets in active

seismic areas.
