Table 19: Rack Requirements for ACX7100-32C Routers
Rack Requirement Guidelines
Rack size and
•
Ensure that the rack complies with the standards for a 19-in. rack as defined in
strength
Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310–D) published by
the Electronics Industry Association.
•
Use an 800-mm rack as defined in the four-part
telecommunications standard for equipment practice (document numbers ETS 300
119-1 through 119-4) published by the European Telecommunications Standards
Institute
The horizontal spacing between the rails in a rack that complies with this standard is
usually wider than the device's mounting brackets, which measure 19 in. (48.26 cm) from
outer edge to outer edge. Use approved wing devices to narrow the opening between
the rails as required.
•
Ensure that the rack rails are spaced widely enough to accommodate the external
dimensions of the router chassis. The outer edges of the front-mounting brackets extend
the width to 19 in. (48.26 cm).
•
Ensure that the rack is strong enough to support the weight of the router. The fully
configured ACX7100-32C router weighs about 26.94 lb (12.22 kg).
•
Ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for proper clearance around
the router and rack.

•
If earthquakes are a possibility in your geographical area, secure the rack to the floor.
•
Secure the rack to the ceiling brackets and to wall or floor brackets for maximum
stability.

Cabinet Requirements for ACX7100-32C Routers

You can mount ACX7100-32C routers in a cabinet that contains a four-post 19-in. rack as defined in
Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310-D) published by the
Electronics Industry Association.
Table 20 on page 41 provides the cabinet requirements and specifications for ACX7100-32C routers.
