Procedure

Inspect shipping containers for damage.

If shipping containers are damaged, keep them until the contents of the shipment have been carefully inspected and checked for normal operation.

Remove the packing list from the outside of the shipping carton.

Open the carton and remove the contents.

Check the contents against the packing list to verify completeness of the shipment.

If damage is evident, contact the carrier and Comtech EF Data immediately and submit a damage report.

If the unit needs to be returned to Comtech EF Data, use the original shipping container.

Be sure to keep all shipping materials for the carrier's inspection.

IMPORTANT

2.2Rack Mounting

The CRS-300 is constructed as a 4RU-high, rack-mounting chassis. Handles are provided to facilitate removal and placement into a rack.

Mount the Switch in the rack using the mounting holes on the front panel. Use the front panel screw holes only. DO NOT install rack slides to the side of the CRS-300 chassis – contact Comtech EF Data if there are questions about rack supports.

Figure 2-1provides a “cut-away” side view of a typical rack configuration for modems combined with the CRS-300, CRS-280, and CRS-350. The CRS-280 IF Switch can be mounted on the back
