Installing  Equipment  

 

The  Z4-­‐Series  SeismicFrame  Cabinet  supports  all  manufacturers’  equipment  that  conforms  to  the  

EIA/ECA-­‐310E  standard.    Most  equipment  attaches  directly  to  the  equipment  mounting  rails;  however,  

some  manufacturers  may  provide  brackets  or  slide  assemblies  that  require  additional  installation.  

 

Rack-­‐mount  unit  (U)  markings  are  clearly  printed  on  the  equipment  rails  to  simplify  installation  of  

components.    Align  equipment  with  the  U  markings  on  each  side  of  the  cabinet  before  securing  the  

equipment.  

 

 

NOTE:  Equipment  rails  should  be  adjusted  to  the  desired  location  (front  to  rear)  prior  

to  installing  equipment.    See  “Adjusting  the  Equipment  Rails”  on  page  25.  

 

The  Z4-­‐Series  SeismicFrame  Cabinet  is  provided  with  hardware  to  secure  equipment  to  the  mounting  

rails.    This  hardware  includes  50  sets  of  M6  cage  nuts  and  screws.    Additional  hardware  is  available  for  

purchase  (see  “Other  Accessories”  on  page  30).  

 

 

Cable  Management  

 

CPI  cable  management  products  provide  the  proper  cable  bend  radii  for  better  data  transmission;  

fewer  tangled  cords  and  cable  damage;  and  ease  in  moving,  adding,  and  changing  connections.  The  

products  assist  in  complying  with  ANSI/TIA/EIA  installation  of  Category  5/5e/6/6a  and  fiber  cables.  

 

Separate  the  cables  by  type,  gather  into  bundles,  and  fasten  loosely  with  hook  and  loop  fasteners.  CPI  

offers  Saf-­‐T-­‐Grip  Straps  to  fasten  cable  bundles  (P/N  0200X-­‐series).  

 

See  “Accessories  –  Cable  Management”  on  page  28  for  more  information.
