Mounting the SH12 Shelf to a Rack
Mounting the SH12 Shelf to a Rack
LIFTINGHAZARD CAUTION
ADVA Optical Networking recommends having two people hold the shelf
in place while a third person secures it to the rack.
This procedure assumes that:
l The mounting brackets are attached to the shelf;
l A cover extension is installed (if applicable); and
l The grounding cable is installed to the shelf.
1. Verify that you are properly grounded with an anti-static wrist strap or heel strap
connected to the grounded ESD jack.
2. On the rack mounting rails, locate and mark the mounting holes where you will mount
the shelf.
3. Install two or four cage nuts in the corresponding holes on both sides of the rack.
4. If there is a terminal connector used for the ground point preinstalled in your rack,
skip this step and proceed to the next step. Otherwise, locate and clip the cage nut to
the right mounting rail on the back side of the rack for the grounding cable to be
attached.
5. Mount the shelf to the rack:
a. With a person on each side, lift the shelf to the bay and position it in the rack so
that the bracket holes on each side are aligned with the rack mounting holes or
the cage nuts.
b. Use a Pozidriv screwdriver and 2 Pozi screws to attach the left mounting bracket
to the rack.
c. Use a Pozidriv screwdriver and 2 Pozi screws to attach the right mounting
bracket to the rack.
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE MAY RESULT IF YOU LIFT THE
SHELF BY INSERTING YOUR HANDS INTO THE SHELF.
Lift from the outside of the shelf to avoid damage.
While positioning the shelf into the rack, keep hold of the grounding cable,
which is attached on the shelf’s right side or reverse side, to not
inadvertently jam it.
6. Attach the other end of the grounding cable to the cage nut affixed in Step 4 or to the
preinstalled terminal connector used for the ground point on the rack to ensure
adequate grounding for the shelf.
