Prerequisites
Before installing the Cisco NCS 4216, it is important to prepare for the installation by:
• Preparing the site (site planning) and reviewing the installation plans or method of procedures (MOP)
• Unpacking and inspecting the Cisco NCS 4216
• Gathering the tools and test equipment required to properly install the Cisco NCS 4216
For more instructions on how to prepare for the installation of the Cisco NCS 4216, see the Preparing for
Installation section.
Installing the Router in a Rack
The sections describe how to install the Cisco NCS 4216 in a rack.

Installing the Chassis Brackets
The chassis is shipped with mounting brackets that can be installed on the front or rear of the chassis. To
install the brackets on the front of the chassis, perform these steps:
Procedure
Step 1 Remove the rack-mount brackets from the accessory kit and position them beside the router chassis.
Figure 1: Attaching Mounting Brackets for a 23-inch Rack
Step 2 Position one of the brackets against the chassis side, and align the screw holes.
Step 3 Secure the bracket to the chassis with the screws removed when performing Step 1. The recommended
maximum torque is 28 in.-lb (3.16 N-m).
The A907-FAN-E fan tray with filter (A907-FAN-F) cannot be mounted using the mounting screws that are
supported for fan tray. This is not an issue with the FAN tray filter blank panel (A907-FAN-F-B). We
recommend that you use the short screws provided in the following rack mount kits to avoid interference of
the air filter during rack mounting and while replacing the fan tray with the fan tray filter (A907-FAN-E):
• 23" rack mount kit (A907-RCKMT-23IN)
What to do next
Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 for the other bracket.

Installing Plenum Assembly and Chassis in the Rack
Following steps help you to install the plenum assembly irrespective of the chassis and rack size.
The below illustrations are for representation purpose only. The size displayed in the images may vary
depending upon your chassis type and rack size but the steps remain the same. Ensure to select the 21 or 23
inches adapter for your plenum based on your rack size.
Note
Procedure
Step 1 Position the adapter to the plenum base and secure using a maximum torque of 11.5 in.-lb (1.3 N-m). See
figure below.

Installing the Air Plenum (A907-F2B-AIR) in the Rack
This procedure installs the air plenum to orient the air flow in front-to- back direction in the NCS 4216 router.
Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit.
Statement 1074
Warning
This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal
use. Statement 39
Warning
For nominal voltage of -60 VDC, the input voltage range is from -40 to -72 VDC.
