Installing the Front Door on a PTX5000 in an Open-Frame Rack

You can install a door over the front card cage of the PTX5000. Captive thumbscrews secure the door in
a closed position.
NOTE: If you plan to install the PTX5000 in an open-frame rack, you can install the door before
the chassis is mounted in the rack. However, this procedure assumes that the router has been
installed in the rack and grounded. If you install the door before grounding the router, ensure
that you use proper site grounding.
Before you begin, ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to install the front door
on a PTX5000 in an open-frame rack.
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
