Mount the Avaya G600 Media Gateway in the Rack

WARNING: Make sure there is adequate ventilation in the area. The internal room temperature must not exceed 43o C (110o F).

WARNING: Make sure the customer-supplied 19-inch, EIA 310D standard, open rack is properly installed, solidly secured to the floor, and grounded. If the rack is not secured to the floor, do not proceed with the installation. Enclosed data cabinets are not recommended, as they may not allow sufficient ventilation to the G600 Media Gateway.

WARNING: It is very important to align the media gateway with the correct holes in the frame because the distance between each may vary. To aid your installation of the media gateway, an actual size mounting template is included in the shipment, stored in the accessary compartment.

Installation requires 12 inches (30 centimeter) of clearance in the rear and 18 inches (45�centimeters) of clearance in the front for adequate ventilation, which is consistent with EIA�310D data rack standards. In a multiple media gateway configuration, the dimensions of the TDM/LAN cable require that one media gateway be mounted directly over the other (flush).

Mount One Media Gateway

1. Remove the media gateway door by opening and then lifting it straight up and off the hinge pins.

WARNING: When handling circuit packs or any components of the Avaya G600, always wear an authorized wrist ground strap connected to the ground connector provided on the system media gateway. Store circuit packs during media gateway installation such that they will not be damaged by electrostatic discharge.

2. Remove all circuit packs and the power supply.
3. If necessary, prepare the media gateway for mounting in the medial position by removing the screws on the mounting brackets, moving the brackets to a position midway on the media gateway, and reinstalling the screws through the mounting bracket and into the media gateway holes.
4. Using the Rack Mounting Guide, locate a set of rack holes to be used for mounting. Note the position of the upper key-hole shaped slots on each rail.

NOTE: The mounting screw holes in some commercial racks are not evenly spaced. Make sure the holes selected for mounting the media gateway are such that the rack holes match all the mounting bracket slots on the Guide. See Rack hole spacing and first mounting screws placement.

WARNING: Installing the top media gateway higher than shoulder level on the rack is not recommended.

5. Insert two mounting screws into the left and right rails of the rack in the holes noted in step 4. Leave enough space between the screw head and the rail surface to accept the mounting bracket. See Mounting the media gateway.

DANGER: Use lifting precautions! An empty Avaya G600 Media Gateway weighs 35-39 pounds 16-18 kilograms).

6. Lift the empty media gateway and slide the key-hole slots on the mounting brackets onto the two mounting screws.
7. Install and tighten the two top mounting screws.
8. Install and tighten the remaining screws. See Rack hole spacing and first mounting screws placement.

NOTE: Follow the same steps to install the media gateway with mounting bracket in the medial position. See Mounting the media gateway in medial position..

9. Reinstall the circuit packs and power supply.
10. Proceed to Check AC Power and Ground for Avaya G600.
