The C Series Controller enables you to easily install, configure, and support Juniper
Networks Session and Resource Control Policy Engine (SRC PE) software. It provides
easy access to troubleshooting information, such as reporting events, logs, and system
dumps while providing Session Resource Controller functionality.
There are two C Series Controller models: the C3000 model and the C5000 model. Each
model is composed of four hard drives, three fan modules, redundant power supplies,
one USB port, a console management port, and four Ethernet ports.
The system is shipped in a cardboard carton and secured with foam packing material.
The carton also contains an accessory box and quick start instructions.

You can install the controller in a four-post rack or cabinet or an open-frame rack.
The rack rails must be spaced widely enough to accommodate the controller chassis's
external dimensions: 3.5 in. (8.8 cm) high, 23.5 in. (59.7 cm) deep, and 17.26 in. (43.7 cm)
wide. The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width to 19.2 in. (48.7 cm).
The rack must be strong enough to support the weight of the fully configured controller,
up to 43.31 lb (19.65 kg).
For the cooling system to function properly, the airflow around the chassis must be
unrestricted. Allow at least 6 in. (15.2 cm) of clearance between side-cooled controllers.
Allow 2.8 in. (7 cm) between the side of the chassis and any non-heat-producing
surface such as a wall.
For service personnel to remove and install hardware components, there must be
adequate space at the front and back of the controller. Allow at least 30 in. (76.2 cm)
in front of the controller and 24 in. (61 cm) behind the controller.
The rack or cabinet must have an adequate supply of cooling air.
