Rack Mount; Virtual Services Platform 9012 Chassis Installation - Avaya Virtual Services Platform 9000 Series Installation Manual

Virtual Services Platform 9012 chassis
The hardware required to mount the Avaya Virtual Services Platform 9012 chassis in an
equipment rack depends on your equipment rack type.
You need a Phillips screwdriver to install the Virtual Services Platform 9012 chassis in a
standard rail-type equipment rack if using Avaya-supplied screws.
Install the device in standard EIA-310D 19-inch racks and ETSI 600-millimeter (mm) racks.
The chassis fits a standard 19-inch rack using the mounting brackets that ship with the unit.
To install the chassis in an ETSI 600-mm rack, you must provide mounting brackets to adapt
the chassis to the rack.
If the rack does not use threaded rail holes, you must use the supplied clip nuts with the clip
nut screws.
Avaya does not include the cables required for your network configuration in the Virtual
Services Platform 9012 chassis accessory package.

Rack mount

You can install a maximum of three Virtual Services Platform 9012 chassis in a standard 19
in. wide 7 ft. tall rack.
Important:
Install chassis units from the bottom up to ensure racks do not become top heavy, and fall
over.
