Step 1: Prepare Your Site for the TCX1000-2D8CMD
Before installing the TCX1000-2D8CMD module, make sure your site meets all power, environmental, and clearance requirements.
NOTE:
To mount the TCX1000-2D8CMD in a rack, you need the TCX1000-RCK-1 kit. This kit is separately orderable.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to install the TCX1000-2D8CMD:
•
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap (not provided).
•
Screwdriver appropriate for the rack-mounting screws (not provided).
•
TCX1000-RCK-1 kit (separately orderable), which includes these items:
•
Chassis to mount the TCX1000-2D8CMD
•
Four self-tapping bolts to secure the chassis to the rack
•
Two 19-in. front mounting brackets (preinstalled on the chassis)
•
Two 21-in. and two 23-in. mounting brackets
Step 2: Unpack the TCX1000-2D8CMD
For detailed instructions on how to unpack the box and verify the parts received for the TCX1000-2D8CMD, see the

Step 3: Mount the Chassis
To mount the TCX1000-RCK-1 chassis on two posts in a rack using the 19-in. mounting brackets:
NOTE:
The 19-in. front brackets are attached to the chassis when they are shipped. If you want to attach the 21-in.
or 23-in. brackets, unscrew the 19-in. brackets from the chassis, and attach the 21-in. or 23-in. brackets by using the
same screws.
NOTE:
This procedure requires two persons. Do not attempt to do it alone.
1.
Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point.
NOTE:
Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and maintenance, and
secure it to the building structure.
2.
Have one person grasp both sides of the chassis, lift it, and position it in the rack so that the front brackets are aligned with
the rack holes. See
Figure 1
.
3.
Have a second person secure the front of the chassis to the rack using four mounting screws (and cage nuts and washers if
your rack requires them). Tighten the screws. See
Figure 1
