When it is packaged for shipment, the router is equipped as ordered, with all
components installed. Because of the weight and height of the router, the router
shipping pallet incorporates a scissor-jack platform that enables a team of two
installers to remove a fully loaded router from the pallet and insert it into an
equipment rack, or extract a fully loaded router from a rack, without removing any
of the components from the chassis.
The router is bagged to protect it against dust and electrostatic discharge (ESD)
and secured to the scissor-jack platform by four anchor clips. The anchor clips are
inserted into slots along the bottom edges of the chassis side panels and secured
to the scissor-jack platform by four bolts. In turn, the scissor-jack platform is
secured to the shipping pallet by eight hold-down brackets that are bolted to the
top of the shipping pallet.
Note The scissor-jack platform remains attached to the router until the router is inserted
into the equipment rack. After the router is inserted in the rack, the scissor-jack
platform should be reinstalled on the shipping pallet. The entire shipping
container should be reassembled and stored.
