Cage Installation
Unpacking the Cage
Open the Cage box, remove the packing material, and check the Cage for any visible
damage. Contact the carrier for an immediate on-site inspection if damage is found. If
there are no visible problems, remove the unit from the box and set it on a flat working
surface.
Use the AC power cord packaged and supplied with the Cage/BackPack. For systems
shipped to countries that utilize a 110–130-volt power system, the power cord is rated
at 15 amps. Systems shipped to countries with a 208-volt power systems are
packaged with power cords rated at 10 amps. Older model BackPacks utilized 10
amp-rated power cords that are NOT approved for use with current model BackPacks
on 110–130-volt power systems. The standard 10 amp power cords are acceptable
for use with the Fiber Transceiver. Refer to the Safety Guidelines on page 7 for more
information.
R4300 modules are packaged individually and shipped in a carton separate from the
Cage, with their appropriate patch cables in each package.
Installing the Cage
ClearCube offers two methods to mount Cages in a rack:
•
Chassis Accessory kit, included with all Cages
•
Cage Rapid Mount (CRM) kit, available separately.
The standard Chassis Accessory kit fits all standard 19” racks and provides a set of
front and back mounting brackets, with the necessary hardware. The optional CRM kit
is specially designed to fit ClearCube-supplied cabinets and racks that feature four
posts with square mounting holes for snap-in rack nuts. While this is an
industry-standard style for mounting hardware, not all third-party racks can accept the
CRM kit.
If you plan to use a cabinet enclosure, ensure that you have at least 34 inches (86cm)
of interior depth measured from the front of the unit, to accommodate the cabling that
exits from the rear of each Cage. The spacing between the front and back rails can be
no more than 30 inches (76cm).
CAUTION: To avoid equipment damage and potential personal injury,
install the Cage without Blades installed.
