Installation Instructions

This section explains the mechanical installation of an Ellipse 3000 unit in a standard equipment
rack.

Installing the Unit in a Rack

NOTE: For rack installation, ensure that a designated 19" rack is fully prepared for installation. Ensure
sufficient space behind the rack for easy access for installation and maintenance.
The following sections detail the installation of an Ellipse 3000 unit in a 19" rack using the
dedicated mounting slides.
Installing the Brackets
To prepare the Ellipse for rack installation:
1. Fasten a pair of brackets to both side rails of the rack housing by using two flat washer screws
for each side.
2. Use the two front holes at the sides of the housing to attach the bracket. (Complementing
nuts are already installed on the inner side of the holes, but the four screws required are not
included in the supplied kit).
3. Ensure proper grounding of the rack assembly to prevent potential electrical problems (See
