Rack Mounting the 7800 Series Gateway Equipment
The 7800 series equipment is mounted on a customer provided equipment rack using the mounting
hardware packaged in each box.
2.2.1
Prerequisites
To rack mount the equipment, you will need:
•
One customer-provided equipment rack, measuring 19” in width and 31.5” in depth. 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 7800-CTRL and 7800-TMS are each housed in 1U chassis, while 7800 Telecom units are housed
in 2U chassis, as tabulated in

14. 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 one or two 7800-CTRL unit(s),
one to sixteen 7800 Telecom unit(s), and from zero to two TMG7800-TMS units. 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 7800-CTRL unit(s), 7800 N+1 patch panel(s), 7800 Telecom unit(s),
and the 7800-TMS unit(s) on the equipment rack.
