RAS chassis installation
Do the following:
1. If you have not done so already, remove the RAS from its shipping container.
Note The RAS should be placed as close as possible to the termination jack
provided by the Telco. Avoid installing the RAS in a location where
the power cords or network interface cables could be accidentally dis-
connected. The location should be well ventilated. Do not block the
RAS’s cooling vents.
2. If you are installing the RAS in a 19-inch rack, go to step 3. Otherwise, place the RAS at the desired loca-
tion, then go to “Cable installation” on page 21.
3. Install the rack mounting ears onto the RAS using the mounting hardware provided.
4. Place the RAS at the desired position in the rack.
