Installing the Drawers
The process for installing the cable storage and cross connect drawers is the same.
The order of placement beneath the chassis is important and should be installed
in the following order from top to bottom:
1.
Cable storage drawer
2.
Cross connect drawer
3.
Cross connect drawer
4.
Cable storage drawer
5.
Cross connect drawer
6.
Cross connect drawer
The first cable storage drawer can be used for direct connections and storage for
connections made using the first and second cross connect drawers. Each cable
storage drawer stores cables for two cross connect drawers.
The cross connect and cable storage drawers ship with the rack mount ears already
installed. To install the cross connect and cable storage drawers into the rack,
follow these steps:
Step 1
Hold the drawer with both hands and position the drawer in the rack beneath the
chassis. (See
.) All drawers following this first one can be stacked
directly underneath each other.
