Planning the POTS Splitter Chassis Installation
To plan the bracket and chassis installation, determine:
Whether the DSLAM will be rack-mounted. If your Hotwire 8600 Series
DSLAM chassis is being placed on a tabletop, install the rubber feet as
shown on page 5. Discard the rubber feet for any rack-mounted chassis.
Width of the rack: 19
″
or 23
″
.
Chassis position in the rack: center-mounted or front-mounted.
Center-mounting is recommended for convenient access to cables.
Whether the rack has mounting rails with threaded or non-threaded screw
holes.
NOTE:
Install chassis in the rack from the bottom up to maintain stability.
