Airflow Guidelines for ETSI Rack Installation
When you install a device on a 2 or 4-post rack, the front and rear doors of the cabinet must be removed. We
recommended that you always maintain a minimum clearance distance as mentioned the following.
• Front clearance—5 inches (12.7 centimeters)
• Rear clearance—3.93 inches (10 centimeters)
To mount the chassis in a 4-post enclosed cabinet, ensure a minimum of 3.93 inches (10 centimeters) of
clearance on each side of the chassis.
Floor Loading Considerations
Ensure that the floor under the rack supporting the chassis is able to support the combined weight of the rack
and all the other installed equipment.
For additional information about floor loading requirements, see the
Building System (NEBS) Requirements: Physical Protection
Site Power Guidelines
The chassis has specific power and electrical wiring requirements. Adhering to these requirements ensures
reliable operation of the system. Follow these precautions and recommendations when planning your site
power for the chassis:
• The redundant power option provides a second, identical power supply to ensure uninterrupted power
• Connect each power supply to a separate input power source. Otherwise, it results in total power failure
• To prevent loss of input power, ensure that the maximum load on each circuit is within the current ratings
• Check the power at your site before installation, and periodically after installation, to ensure that you are
• Provide proper grounding to avoid personal injury and damage to the equipment due to power surges or
