CHAPTER 1
Before Installation
This section provides information on what should be considered when choosing a
location for a Netra ft 1800 system.
Note – This equipment is only intended for installation in a Restricted Access
Location as defined by UL1950, 3rd Edition, and EN60950: 1992 / A11: 1997.
Electrical Supply Considerations
Before you install the system, verify that the correct power supply is available. Refer
to “DC Source Site Requirements” on page 36 for further information.
Environmental Considerations
The system can be installed in an environment with the following specific parameter
ranges:
■Ambient temperature
■Operating: 0 to 40 degrees Celsius (short term operation up to a temperature of
50 degrees Celsius is possible; however, the operation of removable media
devices cannot be guaranteed.)
■Storage: –40 to 70 degrees Celsius
Install.book Page 1 Wednesday, December 8, 1999 12:18 PM

2Netra ft 1800 Hardware Installation Manual • December 1999
■Relative humidity
■Operating: 5 to 85% noncondensing1
■Storage: 10 to 90% noncondensing1
■Elevation
■Operating: 0 to 3000 meters
■Storage: 0 to 12000 meters
Dimensions
■Height: 1466.85 mm (57.75 inches) 33U NOM
■Width: 437.60 mm (17.22 inches)
■Depth: 392.8 mm (15.4 inches)
■Weight: Maximum 190.5 kg (420 lb) (excluding rack or AC converter items)
■Maximum rate of heat release for fully configured system: 3000W
(10,200 Btu/hour)
■GR 63 CORE heat release calculation result: 425.4 W per square foot
[3000 W / (3.25 ft x 2.17 ft)] (4579 W per square meter).
These dimensions are for the product without rack-mount flange adapters; the
overall width of the flanges varies according to the equipment mounting
requirements.
The depth given does not include any I/O or power connectors. The power
connectors add 50 mm (2 inches) to the depth.
Airflow Consideration when Mounting in the
Equipment Frame
The Netra ft 1800 system has been designed to function while mounted in a natural
convection airflow, but to meet the declared environmental specification the
following rules apply. Refer to FIGURE 1-1 on page 1-4 and FIGURE 1-2 on page 1-5.
1. Adequate airflow through the equipment frame must be ensured. The
Netra ft 1800 system utilizes internal fans that can achieve a maximum airflow of
840 cfm in free air.
2. The inlet air must enter at the bottom of the Netra ft 1800 cabinet and in front of
the Power Supply Units (PSUs); the airflow exhausts vertically from the top of the
cabinet.
3. Inlet and exhaust ventilation require a minimum open area of 400 cm2(62 in2)
each.
1. Subject to a maximum absolute humidity of 0.024Kg of water per Kg of dry air.
Install.book Page 2 Wednesday, December 8, 1999 12:18 PM

Chapter 1 Before Installation 3
4. A minimum of 2U (88.9 mm/3.5 inches) clearance must be allowed at both top
and bottom of the Netra ft 1800 cabinet when mounted unless unobstructed
vertical airflow can be ensured. Refer also to “Mounting Requirements” on
page 6.
5. The Netra ft 1800 system must not be mounted above any heat-generating sources
within the same frame unless a heat deflector is used to provide fresh inlet air at
ambient temperature.
6. To maintain adequate airflow, replace the environmental filters every six months
(contact your local support organization for further information). The
environmental filter replacement kit (X-Option No.X6952A) contains six PSU
filters and three base filters.

Mechanical Considerations when Mounting in the
Equipment Frame
Caution – Mechanical assistance is required if installing a loaded chassis.
If you intend not to use a lifting device for installation, all modules other than the
motherboards must be removed from the system prior to lifting. The empty chassis
weighs approximately 49 kg (108 lb), or 68 kg (150 lb) with the motherboards, plus
the adaptors. The weight of any removable module depends on its configuration.
Weight warning labels are for guidance only.
See “Removing and Installing Modules” on page 16 for information about adding
modules to the motherboard.
The Netra ft 1800 chassis has been designed to accommodate most mounting
configurations. Adaptor flanges to suit 19-inch, 23-inch, 24-inch and 600-mm (ETSI)
rack sizes are available as required.
The Netra ft 1800 system is shipped with a plinth, which protects the bottom of the
chassis during transit and handling, and also ensures that the correct airflow inlet
plenum is provided during installation. The plinth must be removed once the
Netra ft 1800 is installed in a rack, then stored in a safe place.
The Netra ft 1800 chassis must be mounted using screws suitable for the equipment
frame. The screws should be M5, M6 or 10-32 UNF. All screws must be fitted. The
recommended tightening torque value for either M5 or 10-32 UNF recess head
screws is 3.8 Nm (2.8 lbf/ft), and that for M6 screws is 6 Nm (4.4 lbf/ft).
Mounting Requirements
The Netra ft 1800 is available with the following removable mounting flanges:
■19 inch EIA pattern
■23 inch EIA pattern
■24 inch EIA pattern
■600 mm IEC917 (ETSI) pattern
Any of these flanges can be fitted in the following positions:
■Flush with the front of the system
■65 mm (2.56 inches) from front of system
■196.1 mm (7.72 inches) from front of system
The second and third positions are intended for use with 5-inch web open frames
(relay racks).

Chapter 1 Before Installation 7
Adjustable rear flanges can be fitted. They provide a mounting face anywhere
between 400 mm and 500 mm (15.75 inches and 19.7 inches) from the front of the
system.
The vertical mounting hole pattern should conform to the standard dimensions
given in TABLE 1-1.
The tapped mounting holes on the Netra ft 1800 chassis are arranged as shown in
FIGURE 1-3.

Chapter 1 Before Installation 9
Loading
The rack must be capable of supporting 230 kg (500 lbs) for a fully configured and
cabled Netra ft 1800.
In Seismic (Earthquake) Risk Zones 3 and 4, it is recommended that the Netra ft 1800
is installed in an appropriate secured seismic rack or cabinet.
Vertical space
The Netra ft 1800 chassis occupies 33RU (146.7 cm / 57.75 inches) of vertical height.
To allow adequate airflow, the rack must provide either:
■Unobstructed vertical airflow via vents of adequate size in the top and/or bottom
panels. In this case the vertical height required is 35RU (155.6 cm / 61.25 inches).
The chassis should be mounted cengrally, providing a 1RU-high plenum adjacent
to each vent grille.
or:
■A minimum of 37RU (164.5 cm / 74.75 inches) of rackable height, with the
provision of 2RU vertical space (8.9 cm / 3.5 inches) for front and/or rear vents at
both top and bottom.
If you intend to fit the Netra ft 1800 into a rack with its red transit plinth in place,
4RU (17.8 cm / 7 inches) of clearance must be provided beneath the chassis. This
space permits removal of the plinth after installation.
Note – The plinth must be removed to allow fitment of the chassis environmental
filters.
Depth
The front door (if fitted) must provide a minimum of 75 mm (3 inches) of clearance
across the entire front surface of the Netra ft 1800 to allow for routing of I/O cables.
As all I/O cables must be routed from the front of the Netra ft 1800 system, due
consideration should be made of the space required within the rack for these cables,
as well as the power cables at the rear of the system.
There must be a minimum of 545 mm (21.5 inches) usable internal depth in the rack/
cabinet. This dimension includes space for connector housings, cabling and the
power inlet filters.

Safety
All racks must be bolted to the floor, to adjacent frames or to both. This must be
done in accordance with the rack manufacturer’s instructions, using the
recommended hardware and fixings.
Free-standing racks with a footprint of less than 600 mm x 600 mm (23.6 inches x
23.6 inches) are likely to be unstable and should be treated with caution.
