The NCS 2015 shelf requires a minimum of 24.4 inches (619.76 mm) vertical rack space. To ensure that
the mounting is secure, use eight mounting screws on each side of the shelf. If the shelf is the only unit
in the rack, it should be mounted at the bottom of the rack.
Note
Procedure
Step 1
Verify that the proper fuse and alarm panel has been installed in the top mounting space. If a fuse and alarm
panel is not present, you must install one as per the instructions of the manufacturer:
•
For a DC power supply, the fuse rating must not exceed 60 A.
•
For an AC power supply, the fuse rating must not exceed 20A. For North America, the branch circuit
protection must be rated 20A. The overcurrent/short circuit protection must be in accordance with local
and national electrical codes.
Step 2
Ensure that the shelf is mounted on the appropriate rack equipment:
•
23-inches (584.2 mm) or 19-inches (482.6 mm) for racks.
•
600 x 300-mm (23.6 x 11.8-inch) for ETSI racks.
Step 3
Lift the shelf to the desired position in the rack. If the rack is empty, place the shelf at the bottom of the rack.
The placement of the shelf is dependent on where you want to install the new equipment in the rack.
To ensure proper cooling of the NCS 2015 shelf, make sure that the space in front of the air flow
vents are free of cables, fibers, and mechanical fixtures for fiber and cable management.
