5.4 Rack Mounting
5.4.1 Location in Rack
The Vega 30 Router is designed to be installed in a standard 483mm (19 inch) equipment
rack for use. The unit requires a “shallow” 3RU high space within a rack.
(See Section 5.2 “Chassis Dimensions” on page 41 for the unit’s depth dimensions.)
5.4.2 Mounting the Vega 30 Router into a Rack
Preliminaries:
1.
Check that the rack is rigid enough for the Vega 30 Router chassis.
Fitting the unit:
2.
Position the Vega 30 Router in the rack.
3.
Secure the Vega 30 Router chassis in the rack at each mounting hole using 4-off M6
screws. See Figure 22.
Unit removal is the reverse of fitting.
5.4.3 Cabling Up in a Rack
When connecting cables to the Vega 30 Router, it is recommended that cable supports are
used (clamps and bars) to relieve the strain on rear connectors.
Bond the Vega 30 chassis to a house ground at the Chassis Ground Point, see Figure 15
“Vega 30 Router Rear Panel (Annotated)” on page 35 and Section A.4.1 “Vega 30 Unit” on
page 241 for details about the Chassis Ground Point.
Note:
The chassis rear will become heavier when cables are connected
