before installing your CSX200.

Unpacking the CSX200

Remove the shipping material from the box and carefully remove the CSX200. Visually inspect
the CSX200. If there are any signs of damage, contact Cabletron Systems (see the

Getting Help

section) immediately. Read the CSX200 Release Notes included in the shipping box.

Installation Guidelines

Installation sites must meet the requirements listed below:

A properly grounded power receptacle must be within seven feet of the location.

In a shelf installation, the shelf must be able to support 13.6 kg (30 lb) of static weight for each
device on the shelf.

You must maintain a temperature of between 5°C (41°F) and 40°C (104°F) at the installation
site with fluctuations of less than 10°C (50°F) per hour.

There must be a two-inch clearance for each side and the back of the device for adequate
ventilation.

Install Cabletron Systems WAN Port Interface Modules (WPIMs) and the CSX-COMP/ENCR
modules (when necessary) into the CSX200 before proceeding with the installation of your
CSX200. Refer to the

Installing a WPIM

and

COMP/ENCR Module Installation

sections

within this chapter for installation instructions.

!

CAUTION

The WPIM, CSX200-COMP/ENCR, and the CSX200 are sensitive to static
discharges. Use a grounding strap and observe all static precautions during
installation. Failure to do so could result in damage to the WPIM, CSX200-COMP/
ENCR and the CSX200.
