Rack Mount
The NV5128 is designed to mount in a standard EIA 19” ( 483 mm ) rack.
How to rack mount the router
1 Determine the placement of the router frame in the rack, and the rack in the facility. When plac-
ing the frame and rack, keep in mind the following requirements:
The router requires 8RUs (14
inches, 355.6 mm) of vertical space.
Be sure to locate the rack near an accessible AC source power outlet.
To ensure proper cooling, leave space for unrestricted air flow through the front of the router,
and a minimum of six inches clearance at the rear where the cooling fans are located.
2 If the router was shipped with the PS6000 power supply modules in the frame, remove them to
make the frame lighter for installation.
3 If the router was shipped with the active cards (e.g., circuit boards) and fan tray in the frame,
consider removing them to make the frame lighter for installation. If removing active cards, be
sure to note which card was installed in which slot for later reinstallation.
4 Lift the router frame into position and attach the router frame to the front of the rack with the
appropriate screws. Have helpers assist in the installation, or use a jack, to keep the frame
aligned in the rack. Do not use modules or other internal components as hand holds. Place
screws in all frame mounting screw holes.
5 If not already installed, install the fan tray by inserting tray in the fan tray slot, located at the top
when facing the front of the router frame, as shown in Figure 2-3 on page 11. The fan tray is
installed right-side up.
6 Reinstall any previously removed active cards (circuit boards). Be sure to install them in the
correct location. For installation instructions, see Installing Backplanes on page 40.
7 Close the front door.
Reference audio and video source at the line rate appropriate for your system.

Important Do not reinstall the PS6000 power supply modules. The modules are installed
after power is connected.
Caution Handle all circuit boards with care. Be sure to use ESD protection and place
the circuit boards in ESD bags or on an ESD surface.
