ARNING
: NPT-1020 platforms are intended for installation in restricted-access areas only.
Before you start:
Choose the physical location of the NPT-1020 platforms, taking the following aspects into consideration:
1.
Equipment dimensions (see the following table).
2.
Required floor loading capability: 100 kg for a typical eight-platform installation.
3.
Routing requirements for grounding, power, alarm monitoring, management cables, and optical
fibers. To ensure convenient access to cables and fibers, it is recommended, whenever possible, to
use overhead cable ladders to bring the cables/fibers to the top of each rack.
4.
When a network management station, for example, the EMS-APT, is installed on the site, consider the
method of connection to the local network management station and the maximum allowed distance.
