Installing a CTP System
Installing the Chassis
This chapter describes the how to install a CTP system, It contains the following
sections:
Installing the Chassis on page 33
Router and Switch Configuration on page 34
Product Reclamation and Recycling Program on page 35
The CTP1004 and CTP1012 chassis are shipped with preattached brackets. These
brackets are used to secure the unit in a rack only when the CTP is supported by a
shelf. The chassis is shipped with longer side-support brackets, which must be
installed when the unit is mounted in a 19-inch rack without a shelf.
The CTP2008, CTP2024, and 2056 models have rack mounts attached to the sides
of the chassis. When you install these units in a rack, you must install them with
screws in all the bracket holes.
The CTP1002 model can be installed on a shelf, on a table, or in a rack with the
supplied rack-mount kit. The rack-mount kit also allows two units to be installed in
a 1-U rack space.
When you install the CTP system into a rack, we recommend that two people install
it in order to properly support the unit. To rack-mount the CTP unit:
1. Verify that there is adequate space in front of and behind the CTP1004 and
CTP1012 systems for airflow. Verify that there is adequate space on the sides of
the CTP2008, CTP2024, and CTP2056 systems for adequate airflow.
2. Remove the brackets on the CTP1004 and CTP1012 systems, and install the
larger rack-mount brackets if the unit is to be installed in a 19-inch rack without
a shelf.
3. Carefully support the CTP unit while it is being mounted in the rack.
4. Make certain that you place screws in all the rack-mount holes and that you
securely fasten the screws.
