NetVanta 6360 Hardware Installation Guide
Mounting Options
The unit may be installed in rackmount or tabletop configurations. The following sections provide step-by-step
instructions for rack mounting and wall mounting.
Rack Mounting the NetVanta
The NetVanta is a 1U-high, rack-mountable unit that can be installed in a 19-inch, 23-inch, or ETSI equipment
rack. The following steps guide you in mounting the NetVanta into a rack.
•
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature
of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible
with the maximum ambient temperature specified by the manufacturer.
•
Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
•
Be careful not to compromise the stability of the equipment mounting rack when
installing this product.
•
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit
and the effect that overloading the circuit might have on overcurrent protection and
supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used when addressing this concern.
•
Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the
branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
Step
1
Attach the appropriate rackmount brackets in the appropriate (either 19-inch, 23-inch, or ETSI)
position using the supplied screws.
2
To allow proper grounding, scrape the paint from the rack around the mounting holes where the
NetVanta will be positioned.
3
Position the NetVanta in a stationary equipment rack allowing 1U space above the unit for
ventilation.
4
Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two mounting bolts through the unit's
brackets and into the equipment rack using a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver.
5
Apply power to the unit (refer to
Connecting Ground to the Unit
Connect the supplemental ground before connecting the power and signal connectors. Connect the unit to a
reliable ground point using a minimum 12 AWG (2.5 mm sq.) ground wire and a closed loop connector that is
appropriately certified for the country of use and suitable for the ground stud and wire size.
