This chassis can be installed in 19” racks with a maximum depth of 81cm.
The switch platform uses 20U of rack space in a standard 19” rack. The switch ships from the fac-
tory with mounting racks on the front side. There are four threaded connectors on the top of the
chassis for connecting eye bolts. The four eye bolts are included in the installation kit. The chassis
can be lifted using these four eye bolts and a mechanical lift. The switch is supported from under-
neath the unit by a shelf.
Choose a rack which is able to support the mechanical and environmental characteristics of a fully
populated switch chassis as listed in Table 3, “Switch Rack Mechanical and Environmental
Requirements (Fully Populated Chassis)”.
Note: A 20U mounting space is required for proper installation of the switch platform.
3.2.1 ESD Connection
Before starting any procedure on the MTS3610 Switch system:
1. Put an ESD prevention wrist strap on your wrist, and make sure there is good contact between
your body and the strap.
2. Plug the other end of the wrist strap to the MTS3610 chassis ESD connector on the front of the
switch system or connect it to a valid ground. Make sure that this is a tight fit.

3.2.2 Installing the Chassis
You will need:
• #2 phillips screwdriver
• a mechanical lift
• a grounding lug
The rack mounting holes conform to the IEA-310 standard for 19-inch racks.
Guarantee proper ventilation, by leaving 8cm (3”) of space to the front and rear of
the switch. This will ensure proper air flow through the chassis. This is crucial for
maintaining good airflow at ambient temperature. In particular, route cables such
that they do not impede the air into or out of the chassis.
