General Site Requirements and Recommendations
When planning your installation of the Cisco R42612 rack, consider the following:
• The unpacking and installation process requires three logistical steps:
• Unloading the unit from the vehicle in which it is shipped
• Using a forklift or similar device to move the unit to an unpacking site
• Moving the unpacked unit to the installation site
• Select an unpacking location with adequate surrounding space for the unloading process. You must allow
for the pallet.
• Choose an installation site that can accommodate the Cisco R42612 rack. To provide for future installation
of a joined configuration, you should plan enough space for additional cabinets that occupy the same
amount of space as the initial cabinet.
• Make sure you have enough people to help you safely unload and install the system. A fully-loaded
cabinet can weigh over 3000 lb (1360.8 kg) and moving it can present dangers to both personnel and the
incorporate equipment.
• Plan a smooth and unobstructed route from the off-loading site to the installation site. You should only
move the rack when it is empty of all equipment.
