Mounting Options
The unit may be installed in rackmount, wallmount, or tabletop configurations. The following sections
provide step-by-step instructions for rack mounting and wall mounting.
Rack Mounting the NetVanta
The NetVanta is a 1U-high, rack-mountable unit that can be installed in a 19-inch, 23-inch, or ETSI
equipment rack. The following steps guide you in mounting the NetVanta into a rack.
1
Attach the appropriate rackmount brackets in the appropriate (either 19-inch, 23-inch, or ETSI)
position using the supplied screws.
2
To allow proper grounding, scrape the paint from the rack around the mounting holes where the
NetVanta will be positioned.
3
Position the NetVanta in a stationary equipment rack allowing 1U space above the unit for
ventilation.
4
Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two mounting bolts through the unit’s
brackets and into the equipment rack using a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver.
5
Apply power to the unit (refer to
Supplying Power to the Unit on page 29
).
•
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient
temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient
temperature specified by the manufacturer.
•
Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
•
Be careful not to compromise the stability of the equipment mounting rack when
installing this product.
•
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading the circuit might have on overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
•
Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
