Attaching Each Mounting Bracket To The G450; Before Mounting The G450 - Avaya G450 Installing And Upgrading

Note:
It is recommended to attach the mounting bracket with cable guides to the left
Note:
side of the rack, so that the cables will not interfere in case you replace the fan
tray. However, if you are installing an MM717 or MM716 media module, attach the
mounting bracket with cable guides to the right side of the rack, to support the
weight of the amphenol cable you will connect to the MM717 media module. See

Attaching each mounting bracket to the G450

The G450 is held in place by mounting screws through the two mounting ears. Fill racks from
the bottom; that is, mount units in the lower positions first, to avoid balancing problems and
cabling complications.
1. Position a bracket over the desired mounting position.
2. Affix the bracket to the chassis with five of the fifteen 6-32 x 3/8 screws provided.
3. Tighten with a screwdriver.

Before mounting the G450

Ensure that the rack is bolted to the floor and is earthquake-protected, if required. If the
●
rack is not securely fixed in place, do not proceed with the installation.
If the G450 is being mounted in a rack with other equipment already installed, the G450
●
must be positioned to avoid imbalance.
Note:
The G450 weighs 21 pounds (9.5 kg) empty and between 37.5 and 39.5 pounds
Note:
(between 17 and 18 kg) when equipped with media modules, an S8300 Server,
and two Power Supply Units.
