3.2 Install the Unit into a Rack Enclosure
Install the unit in its assigned position in a rack enclosure (Figure 3-2). You must install
the rack in a location with a controlled environment. Failure to obey this
requirement can cause damage to the equipment, and denial of subsequent
warranty claims. You may use:
• A standard rack-mounted shelf;
• User-supplied screws to secure the front panel to the rack enclosure threaded
front mounting rails;
• Comtech EF Data’s optional KT/6228-2 (4”) or KT/6228-3 (10”) Rear Support
Brackets Kit (
Figure 3-3).
• Comtech EF Data’s provided
Bearingless Rack Slide Set (Figure 3-4).
• For information about custom rack enclosures, contact Comtech EF Data
Product Support.
CORRECT GROUNDING PROTECTION IS REQUIRED – Connect the ground
stud, located on the rear panel of the unit, to a power system that has
separate ground, line and neutral conductors. Do not operate the unit
without a direct connection to ground.
The rack must be connected to a suitable earthing connection at all
times. You must connect the rack ground bar to a suitable earthing
demarcation point.
CORRECT AIR VENTILATION IS REQUIRED – Air flow must not be
impeded. Make sure there is proper air ventilation. Do not block the top
of the rack or the presence of a rack blower. The air temperature inside
the rack must never exceed 50°C (122°F).
If there is any doubt, contact Comtech EF Data Product Support during
normal business hours.
