Tools and Equipment for Installation and Maintenance
You need the following tools and equipment to install or upgrade the OS-10 system and its components:
• ESD-preventive cord and wrist strap (when working with modular components or expansion cards)
• Number 1 or number 2 Phillips screwdriver
• Mounting brackets (provided); two are required for rack mounting or for wall mounting
• 8 screws (provided) to secure the L mounting brackets to the OS-10 system chassis (four screws for each
bracket)
• A minimum of four 12-24 x 3/4-inch screws (not provided) to secure the OS-10 system chassis to the rack
• Suitable screws and wall anchors to install an OS-10 system on a wall
• Cable ties, if required, for organizing cables
In addition, depending on the type of modules you plan to use, you might need the following equipment to
connect the OS-10 system to an external network:
• Cables for connection to the fiber-optic and client signal ports (depending on configuration)
• Ethernet hub or PC with a network interface card for connection to Ethernet LAN ports

Mounting the Chassis to an EIA/TIA 19-Inch Rack
To install the OS-10 system chassis in an EIA/TIA 19-inch rack, see Figure 10 and follow these steps:
1. Install the two L mounting brackets in the orientation shown in Figure 10 . Insert and fully tighten the
screws to secure the brackets to the chassis (four screws for each bracket).
Note For this rack configuration, the L mounting bracket holes are flush
with the front panel of the OS-10 system, as shown in Figure 4.
2. Position the chassis in the rack and align the mounting holes in the L bracket with the mounting holes in
the equipment rack.
Note The mounting-hole pitch for the 19-inch rack has the following
repetitive pattern: 5/8”- 5/8”-1/2”.
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or
service this equipment.
