FSN-1400 Rack-Mount Procedure
cpkJNQMM=o~ÅâJjçìåí=mêçÅÉÇìêÉ
The FSN-1400 chassis is designed to be rack mounted and is supplied with front rack-
mount hardware. Please note the following important points:
• The FSN-1400 is 6RU in height.
• When rack mounting the unit, remember that the maximum ambient operating
temperature is 40 degrees C.
• Leave sufficient front and rear space to ensure that airflow through the FSN-1400
is not restricted.
• When installing equipment into a rack, distribute the units evenly to prevent
hazardous conditions that may be created by uneven weight distribution.
• Connect the FSN-1400 only to a properly rated supply circuit.
• Reliable grounding (earthing) of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
• Rack mount the FSN-1400 from the front rack ears using four rack screws (not
supplied). Threads may be metric or otherwise, depending upon the rack type.
Use the following steps to rack mount the FSN-1400:
1. At a minimum, an FSN-1400 chassis weighs 35 pounds (15.87 kg). To avoid
injury, it is recommended that two people rack mount the chassis.
2. The FSN-1400 ships with side rails installed, which when properly adjusted, assist
with the distribution of chassis (and cable) weight within your rack. Use the
following steps to properly adjust the side rails:
a. Measure and install the two supplied mounting brackets on your rear
rack rails.

b. Measure the distance between the front and rear rack rails. Remove the
four mounting screws that secure each side rail to the FSN-1400, then
adjust the spacing of each side rail as necessary.

c. Re-install the mounting screws. When properly adjusted, the end of
each side rail will protrude through the slot in the rear mounting bracket,
once the chassis is rack mounted.
