CVX 1800 Hardware Installation Guide
Mounting the CVX 1800 in a Rack
Ceiling Requirements
Consider the following ceiling requirements before you install the rack:
•
The ceiling should be clear of obstructions such as beams, heating and air
conditioning ducts, water pipes, and lights.
•
The ceiling should not have sprinklers; however, appropriate fire protection
devices should be available.
Size and Weight Considerations
Before you install the rack at your site, make sure that the equipment room can
accomodate the size and weight of the rack and the CVX 1800.
To determine the total weight, add the weight of all of the CVX 1800 chassis
(about 100 lb, 45.36 kg each), and the weight of the rack.
