33.1 in. (84.1 cm) deep, and 17.5 in. (44.5 cm) wide. The chassis can be installed into many types of
racks or cabinets.
The chassis includes the following features (see
• Front-mounting flanges for mounting in a four-post rack or cabinet.
• Center-mounting metal brackets for center-mounting in an open-frame rack.
• Handles on each side to facilitate positioning the PTX5000 in the rack. Do not use the handles to lift
the PTX5000.
• Two electrostatic discharge (ESD) points (banana plug receptacles), one front and one rear (see
