CAUTION
For the NEBS compliant installation of a Brocade NetIron CES 2000 Series and NetIron CER
2000 Series 2000 series devices with AC and DC system use a ground wire of at least 6
American Wire Gauge (AWG). The ground wire should have an agency-approved crimped
connector (provided with the chassis) attached to one end, with the other end grounded to either
a common bonding network or an isolated bonding network. The connector must be crimped with
the proper tool, allowing it to be connected to both ground screws on the enclosure. Before
crimping the ground wire into the provided ground lug, insure the bare copper wire has been
cleaned and antioxidant is applied to the bare wire.
CAUTION
To insure adequate bonding when attaching the provided Panduit LCD6-10AF two-hole ground
lug, a minimum of 20 PSI of torque is required to be applied to the mounting hardware used to
attach the ground lug. Use a star washer to ensure an NEBS compliant connection.
Device installation
You can install devices on a desktop, or in an equipment rack.
Installing the device on a desktop
Follow the steps for desktop installation.
1. Set the device on a flat desktop, table, or shelf. Make sure that adequate ventilation is
provided for the system – a 3-inch clearance is recommended on each side.
2. Go to “System power” on page 46.
Installing the device in a rack
<<This section is also in the FGS HW Install Guide. Any changes here should also be made
there.>>
For rack mount installation, Brocade recommends that you use the rack mount ears attached to
the unit. Each unit ships with rack ears attached to the front of the unit. You can mount the rack
ears in 4 different locations on the device.
NOTE
While attaching the chassis to the rack, star washers shall be used to provide better grounding of
the chassis to the rack. Additionally if any single hole grounding lugs are used star washers shall be
used as a means to prevent rotation of the lug.
