MTS3610 Installation Guide

Note: A 20U mounting space is required for proper installation of the switch platform.
The rack mounting holes conform to the IEA-310 standard for 19-inch racks.
Guarantee proper ventilation, by leaving 8cm (3”) of space to the front and rear
of the switch. This will ensure proper air flow through the chassis. This is cru-
cial for maintaining good airflow at ambient temperature. In particular, route
cables such that they do not impede the air into or out of the chassis.
ESD Connection
Before starting any procedure on the MTS3610 Switch system:
Step 1.
Put an ESD prevention wrist strap on your wrist, and make sure there is good contact between
your body and the strap.
Step 2.
Plug the other end of the wrist strap to the MTS3610 chassis ESD connector on the
front of the switch system or connect it to a valid ground. Make sure that this is a tight
fit.
