Securing the Chassis

DETAILED STEPS

Step 1

Place the rack where you plan to install the Cisco NCS 4016 chassis.

Step 2

Secure the rack to the floor.

The chassis should be mounted on a rack that is permanently affixed to the building. Statement 1049

Warning

Before you mount the Cisco NCS 4016 chassis into a rack, it is critical that the installation site be prepared

properly to handle the chassis weight, power requirements, cooling needs, and other requirements.

Because a fully-configured chassis weight can be up to 412 lb (187 kg), you should review the rack

specifications from the manufacturer to determine whether the racks you have are appropriate to handle the

weight of the chassis. For specifications on the chassis, see the Cisco Network Convergence System 4000

Series Hardware Installation Guide .

To avoid tipping the chassis and possible injury when installing it, take care to properly position the chassis

in the rack when you are mounting it.

Before mounting the chassis in the rack, perform the following steps:

This section explains how to install the top and bottom mounting brackets for the specific type of rack you

are using.

• For 2-post ANSI racks, the brackets are installed in the middle position.

• For 4-post ANSI racks and ETSI cabinets, the brackets are installed in the front position.
