The Equipment Layout Plan For Floor Mounting - Nortel Meridian 1 Option 11C Planning And Installation Manual

The equipment layout plan for floor mounting

An optional cabinet pedestal is used for floor-mounting when it is not
possible to mount the cabinets on a wall.
The available floor space must be large enough to accommodate the main
cabinet and one, or more expansion cabinets, as shown in Figure 22 on page
64.
Note: Although you may be installing only a main cabinet at this time,
leave enough space for expansion cabinets to avoid problems in the
future.
Wall space must be available for the cross connect terminal, the cross-connect
cables, the NTAK76 battery unit if required, and any miscellaneous
equipment (such as a power supply for digit displays on telephones).
Make sure that cabinet placement does not allow debris from sources
such as cross-connect terminal activities to fall into the ventilation
slots located at the top of the cabinet.
Leave at least 12 in. (305 mm) of space between the top of the cabinet
and any obstruction (such as a shelf) to permit adequate air circulation.
