Rack-Mounting the Switch

Refer to the important guidelines below before installing the

OmniSwitch chassis in a rack.

• It is recommended that two people install the switch in

the rack—one person to hold the chassis and position it

in the rack, and a second person to secure the chassis to

the rack using attachment screws (not supplied).

• Alcatel-Lucent provides two rack-mount flanges with

each OmniSwitch 6850 Series switch. These flanges

support standard 19-inch rack mount installations.

These flanges must be attached to the chassis before

the switch can be rack mounted.

Note. If you are installing the switch in a 23-inch wide

rack, Alcatel-Lucent offers optional 23-inch rack-mount-

ing hardware. For more information, contact your Alcatel-

Lucent representative.

• Alcatel-Lucent does not provide rack-mount screws.

Use the screws supplied by the rack vendor.

• To prevent a rack from becoming top heavy, it is

recommended that you install heavier equipment at the

bottom of the rack whenever possible.

• If you are installing the switch in a relay rack, be sure

to install and secure the rack as per the rack manufac-

turer’s specifications.

• Review page 6 for important chassis airflow and access

recommendations before installing.

Rack Mounting Steps

To rack-mount the switch, follow the steps below:

Note. Rack-mount flanges may come factory-installed in

some cases. If this is the case, skip steps 1 and 2 below.

1 Align the holes in the provided rack-mount flanges

with the four threaded holes in the OmniSwitch chassis.

These threaded holes are located in the left and right sides

of the chassis, near the front panel.

2 Attach the flanges to the chassis using the provided

Phillips-head screws. Be sure to tighten each of the screws

firmly using a Phillips screwdriver.
