Step 1: Prepare the Site
17.37 in. (44.11 cm) wide. The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the
width to 19 in. (48.3 cm).
The rack must be strong enough to support the weight of the fully configured
router, up to 350 lb (158.76 kg). If you stack three fully configured routers in
one rack, it must be capable of supporting about 1,050 lb (476.3 kg).
For service personnel to remove and install hardware components, there must
be adequate space at the front and back of the router. Allow at least
30 in. (76.2 cm) in front of the router and 24 in. (61 cm) behind the router.
The rack or cabinet must have an adequate supply of cooling air.
Ensure that the cabinet allows the chassis hot exhaust air to exit from the cabinet
without recirculating into the router.
The router must be installed into a rack that is secured to the building structure.
The router should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in
the rack.
When mounting the router in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom
to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
