Installation and Networking Guidelines for Optical Routing
• Clear the area of synthetic materials such as polyester, plastic, vinyl, or
styrofoam because these materials carry static electricity that damages the
equipment.
Installing the shelf To install the optical shelf (Figure15) in a standard 19-inch equipment rack:
1Support the chassis so that all of the mounting holes in the optical shelf are
aligned with the corresponding holes in the rack.
2Attach two rack mounting bolts to each side of the rack.
3Tighten all of the bolts in rotation.
