Chapter 4 Installing the Cisco SCE8000 Chassis

Installation Guidelines

Before installing the chassis, ensure that the equipment rack complies with the following guidelines:

• Width of the rack, measured between the two front mounting strips or rails, must be 17.75 in (45.09

cm).

• Depth of the rack, measured between the front and rear mounting strips, must be at least 19.25 in

(48.9 cm) but not more than 32 in (81.3 cm).

• Rack must have sufficient vertical clearance to insert the chassis. The height of the Cisco SCE8000

chassis is 8.7 in (22.09 cm) (5 RU).

If the rack is on wheels, ensure that the brakes are engaged or that the rack is otherwise stabilized.

Note We recommend that you maintain a minimum air space of 6 in (15 cm) between walls and the chassis air

vents and a minimum horizontal separation of 12 in (30.5 cm) between two chassis to prevent

overheating.

The installation hardware is not suitable for use with racks with obstructions (such as a power strip) that

could impair access to field-replaceable units (FRUs).

Note To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special

precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure

your safety:

• This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.

• When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the

heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.

• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing

the unit in the rack.

Required Tools

These tools and equipment are required to install the chassis in the rack:

• Number 1 and number 2 Phillips-head screwdrivers

• 3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver

• Tape measure and level

• Masking tape or some other method of marking the desired installation height in the rack
