6 Installing the Service Subrack
Remove IEC mounting ears
• The MA5800-X7 service subrack is configured with IEC (19-inch) mounting ears by default.
The MA5800-X7 subrack can be mounted in an IEC cabinet or rack. To install the MA5800-X7
subrack in an ETSI cabinet, uninstall the IEC mounting ears, and then install the ETSI (21-
inch) mounting ears.
• Before installing the service subrack, it is advised to install cable managers or sliding rails in
the cabinet or rack for supporting the service subrack.
