3.2.3 Rack Mounting the Matrix N7 Chassis
The Matrix N7 chassis can be mounted in a standard 48.26-centimeter (19-inch) equipment rack.
To rack mount the chassis into a rack you need to
• allow at least 60 centimeters (24 inches) of clearance in front of the rack for chassis installation,
• install the shelf into the rack first, then
• install the Matrix N7 chassis into the rack.
3.2.3.1 Installing the Shelf
To install the shelf, proceed as follows:
1. Keeping the above Caution note in mind, locate the position on the rack where you will install
the shelf. The chassis requires 77.47 centimeters (30.5 inches) of vertical spacing.
2. Align the four holes in the ears of the shelf with those in the rack (see Figure 3-4, A), then fasten
the shelf to the rack using four of the screws supplied with the rack.
3. After installing the shelf, proceed to install the Matrix N7 chassis as described in
Section 3.2.3.2.
WARNING: If the rack is not secured to the floor, it is recommended that you install the
chassis in the bottom half of the rack. This helps prevent the rack from being top heavy.
ADVERTENCIA: Si el rack no esta asegurado al piso, es recomendable que instales el
chasis en la parte de abajo del rack.Esto ayuda a prevenir que el rack este demasiado
pesado en la parte superior.
WARNHINWEIS: Falls das Rack nicht mit Schrauben am Boden gesichert wird, sollte
das Chassis in der unteren Hälfte des Racks installiert werden, um ein kippen des
Racks zu vermeiden.
