Rack Mount
Routers in the NV8500 family are designed to mount in a 19”
(
482.6
mm
)
EIA rack. The NV8280/
NV8280-Plus and NV8576/NV8576-Plus also use an additional frame that requires mounting, the
NV8000 power supply. which provides power to the router. Although it is not required that both the
router and NV8000 power supply be mounted in the same rack, this manual assumes only one rack
frame is being used.
How to Rack Mount the Router
1 Determine the placement of the router frame, and if applicable, the NV8000 power supply
frame in the rack, and the rack in the facility. When placing the frames and rack, keep in mind
the following requirements (For details, see
• The NV8144 requires 8RUs, the NV8280/NV8280-Plus requires 16RUs and the NV8576/
NV8576-Plus requires 32RUs of vertical space.
• The NV8000 power supply requires 3RUs of vertical space. For each router, two NV8000
power supply frames are required totalling 6RUs of vertical space.
• Be sure to locate the rack near an accessible AC source power outlet. The AC source is used
to power either the NV8144 frame or the NV8000 power supply, which supplies power to
the associated router.
• To ensure proper cooling, leave space for unrestricted air flow through the front of the
router, and a minimum of six inches clearance at the rear where the cooling fans are located.
2 If using an NV8000 power supply, locate the power supply frame. If not using a NV8000, skip
to Step 6.
3 If the NV8000 was shipped with the PS8100 power supply modules in the frame, remove them
to make the frame lighter for installation.
4 Lift the NV8000 power supply frame into position and attach the NV8000 to the front of the
rack with the appropriate screws. Be sure to leave room for the router frame to be mounted in
the rack. Place screws in all frame mounting screw holes.
5 Repeat Steps 2 through 4 for the second NV8000 power supply frame.
6 Locate the NV8500 family router frame.
7 Remove the front door by turning the retaining screws counter clockwise, opening the door, and
lifting it free of the hinges.
Important
Do not reinstall the PS8100 power supply modules. The modules are
installed after power is connected. For more information, see
Caution
Do
not
use the front door handle to lift the entire frame. Doing so may
damage the door.
