OUNTING

The CRS-170 is designed to be mounted in the rear of a rack containing the
modems. Because of the module’s small size and weight, one installation option is
to let the module hang freely supported by the interfacing cables. Alternatively, a
rack mounting kit (KT/10254) is available that allows the module to be mounted
to the rack horizontally or vertically as shown in Figure 1. In applications with the
CDM-600L and the CRS-150, the CRS-170 is best mounted horizontally above or
below the CRS-150.
