EMC CX4 Series Field Installation Manual

This document explains how to install CX4 series hardware in cabinets
that conform to the National Electrical Manufacturer's Association
(NEMA) standards for 19-inch cabinets (in which the left and right
mounting channels are 19 inches apart). It covers mounting hardware
for 1U, 2U, 3U and 4U components, and filler panels that cover empty
cabinet spaces. In most cases, the illustrations and examples refer to
®
EMC standard cabinets, which are 40U tall.
Topics are:
Device placement requirements ......................................................... 2
Power requirements ............................................................................. 4

Note: Since EMC uses easily adjustable universal rails to mount these items in a
NEMA-standard cabinet, the instructions in this guide apply to non-EMC
cabinets as well.
Instructions for adding switches to an EMC storage system are included in the
device-specific documentation that accompanies the switch.
