Installation Instructions The following instructions explain how to install the AT-SBx3106 Chassis on a wall with the AT-SBx3106WMB Wall Mounting Brackets.
Installation Instructions AT-SBx3106 Chassis and AT-SBx3106WMB Brackets Figure 1 illustrates the AT-SBx3106 Chassis as it looks on the wall with the AT-SBx3106WMB Wall Mounting Brackets. Caution The chassis must be installed on the wall in the orientation shown in Figure 1. The fan module must be on top and the slot openings for the line cards and power supplies must be on the right.
AT-SBx3106WMB Wall Mounting Brackets Installation Guide Required Tools This section lists the tools necessary for installing the chassis on a wall with the provided screws. Concrete Wall The brackets come with hex-washer head lag screws for a concrete wall. The screws are blue and have the following specifications: Length: 1 3/4 in. Diameter: 1/4 in. Hex size: 5/16 in.
Installation Instructions Selecting a Wall Location The following sections contain information on how to select a wall location for the chassis. Minimum Dimensions of the Reserved Wall Area This section discusses the recommended minimum dimensions of the reserved wall area for the chassis. Note You might not be able to install or service the components of the chassis if the reserved wall area is smaller than the recommended minimum sizes given in this section.
AT-SBx3106WMB Wall Mounting Brackets Installation Guide Figure 2. Minimum Area Dimensions When the Chassis has AC Power Supplies The front panel should have a minimum space of 51 cm (20 in.) so that you can install and service the line cards and power supplies. The back panel should have a minimum space of 31 cm (12 in.) so that you can connect the AC power cords. The minimum dimensions for the reserved wall area for a chassis that has DC power supplies are listed here: Height: 84 cm (33 in.
Installation Instructions Figure 3. Minimum Area Dimensions When the Chassis has DC Power Supplies The minimum space on the back panel of the chassis can be reduced to 15 cm (6 in.) when the device has DC power supplies because the power wires are connected to the front panel of the power supplies. However, the minimum space on the front panel must remain at 51 cm (20 in.) to allow for the installation of the line cards and power supplies.
AT-SBx3106WMB Wall Mounting Brackets Installation Guide Wood Studs Figure 4. Brackets Aligned with Wallboard Studs The brackets should NOT be fasten intra-stud or with only two of the bracket screws fastened to a wall stud. Refer to Figure 5. Figure 5. Incorrect Installations on Wallboard Caution Do not install the chassis on metal studs. Metal studs may not be strong enough to hold an object as heavy as the chassis.
Installation Instructions General Wall Requirements Please perform the following procedure to determine the suitability of the site for the chassis: 1. Verify that the wall material is strong enough to safely support the weight of the chassis. A fully loaded chassis can weight as much as 30 kg (67.1 lb.)
