Installing the Equipment
2.2
Rack Mounting the 3200 Series Standalone or 3200 Series
1+1 System
The 3200 series equipment is mounted on a customer provided equipment rack using the mounting
hardware packaged in the box.
2.2.1
Prerequisites
To rack mount the equipment, you will need:
•
One 19” customer-provided equipment rack. The rack must be solidly anchored to the floor with
appropriate support at the top of the racks.
•
Climate controlled room: 0 to +50 Celsius, 0 to 95% non-condensing humidity.
2.2.2
Vertical Placement of the Equipment
The 3200 series standalone and 3200 1 are each housed in a 1U chassis, as tabulated in
11. It is important that you provide for enough room on the equipment rack to allow for
the installation of the equipment.
Consider the available space on your equipment rack and the height of the 3200 series gateway
equipment. Due to the rear-exhaust heat vents and the efficient heat dissipation design, there is no
need to leave any physical vertical space above or below the 3200 series gateway equipment on the
rack.

Installing the 3200 Series Standalone and the 3200 Series 1+1 on an
Equipment Rack
Both the 3200 series standalone and the 3200 series 1+1 system are mounted on the 19" equipment
rack using the angle brackets and screws provided in the box.
Mounting the 3200 Series Standalone:
1.
Using four metal screws, attach one angle bracket to the front, left-hand side of the 3200 series
unit, when viewed from the front, as shown in Figure
bracket on the right-hand side.
2.
Start mounting equipment at the top-most position of the rack, keeping in mind the space required
on the equipment rack as described in Section
