Installing a Brocade MLXe-4 router
This section describes how to install a Brocade MLXe-4 router.
Preparing the installation site
Before installing the router, plan the location and orientation relative to other devices and
equipment. For cooling purposes, allow a minimum of six inches of space between the sides, front,
and the back of the router and walls or other obstructions. If a router is installed in a perforated
enclosure, the perforations must cover at least 60 percent of the surface.
This equipment is suitable for installation in a Network Telecommunication facility and where NEC
requirements apply. Additionally, it may be installed in either a Common Bonding Network (CBN) or
Isolated Bonding Network (IBN). It is not intended for Outside Plant (OSP) installations.
Ensure that the proper cabling is installed at the site.
For information on cabling, refer to “Installing power supplies in a Brocade MLXe-4 router” on

device” on page 147.
