Page 21: Introduction To The Stinger Mrt
Two types of MRT chassis are available. The Stinger MRT 23—for installation in standard 23-inch racks The Stinger MRT 19—for installation in standard 19-inch racks, or racks with at least 17.72 inches of space between the mounting rails Each chassis supports different numbers of DSL lines, and types of DSL service, for details see “Stinger MRT models and optional products”...
Page 22: Virtual Slot Conventions For The Stinger Mrt
Table 1-2. Virtual slot conventions for the Stinger MRT The highly integrated Stinger MRT 19 and Stinger MRT 23 use the same TAOS software as larger Stinger units. In the larger Stinger units TAOS uses the physical slot number in which modules are installed to access the parameters of those modules and configure them.

At least 1 inch (2.5cm) of clear space must remain on both sides of the MRT chassis to ensure sufficient air flow. The Stinger MRT 23 and Stinger MRT 19 pull air in from the right side of the chassis and exhaust air from the left side of the chassis.
Page 26: Required Tools And Equipment
Preparing for the Installation Required tools and equipment Caution Before handling Stinger MRT components, ensure that your work area is free from common plastics and that you are properly grounded with an antistatic wrist strap, to prevent component damage from electrostatic discharge. For more information, see “Preventing static discharge damage”...
Page 27: Figure 2-1 Wrist Grounding Strap
Preparing for the Installation Preventing static discharge damage Caution Correct use of an approved antistatic wrist strap is the only reliable way to prevent damage to components by electrostatic discharge from your body Figure 2-1. Wrist grounding strap ground connection To minimize entanglement, right-handed people can wear the strap on the left hand.
Page 28: Remove Plastics From Your Work Area
Preparing for the Installation Unpacking the Stinger MRT Use the following two simple tests to verify that the wrist strap is functioning properly: Measure the resistance between the wrist strap and its grounding plug. Overall resistance between these two points must be approximately 1Megohm. If it is not, replace the strap.
