WARNING: To prevent unnecessary damage, the Fan Tray Module should be installed only in a chassis that is securely
mounted in a frame or rack. You should rack-mount the chassis first and then install the Fan Tray Module.
CAUTION: Due to the heat generated by the C4c CMTS system, it is critical that preparations are made in advance to
change the fan filter. The fan filter replacement must be completed within a 60-second window or damage may occur to
the chassis and/or the boards.
