You must install the TX Matrix Plus router in its own dedicated rack. Consider the height
and weight of the TX Matrix Plus router.
Account for the total weight of the routing matrix. One TX Matrix Plus router weighs
up to 925 lb (420 kg). Each T1600 routers weighs up to approximately 606 lb (275
kg). If you stack two fully configured T1600 routers in one rack, it must be capable of
supporting about 1212 lb (550 kg).

When planning the installation site, you must allow sufficient clearance around the rack
(see Figure 43 on page 108):
For the cooling system to function properly, the airflow around the chassis must be
unrestricted. Figure 24 on page 45 depicts the airflow in the TX Matrix Plus router.
For service personnel to remove and install hardware components, there must be
adequate space at the front and back of the rack. Allow at least 30 in. (72.6 cm) in
front of the rack and 30 in. (72.6 cm) behind the rack.
