Unpacking and Mounting the ACX1000 and ACX1100 Routers
Unpacking an ACX1000 or ACX1100 Router
The ACX1000 and ACX1100 routers are shipped in a cardboard carton, secured with foam packing material. The carton also contains an accessory box.
ACX1000 and ACX1100 routers are maximally protected inside the shipping carton. Do not unpack the routers until you are ready to begin installation.
To unpack the router and prepare for installation, you need the following tools:
Blank panels to cover any slots not occupied by a component
To unpack the router:
- Move the shipping carton to a staging area as close to the installation site as possible, but where you have enough room to remove the system components.
- Position the carton so that the arrows are pointing up.
- Open the top flaps on the shipping carton.
- Remove the accessory box, and verify the contents in it against the parts inventory on the label attached to the carton.
- Pull out the packing material holding the router in place.
- Verify the chassis components received against the packing list included with the router. An inventory of parts provided with the router is provided in Parts Inventory (Packing List) for an ACX1000 and ACX1100 Router.
- Save the shipping carton and packing materials in case you need to move or ship the router later.

Installing the ACX1000 or ACX1100 Router in the Rack
The router can be installed horizontally in a rack or cabinet. For additional installation options, contact JTAC.
To install the router in the rack (see Figure 3):
Before front mounting the router in a rack, have a qualified technician verify that the rack is strong enough to support the router's weight (about 7 lb (3.2 kg)) and is adequately supported at the installation site.
One person must be available to lift the router while another secures it to the rack.
If you are mounting multiple units on a rack, mount the heaviest unit at the bottom of the rack, and mount the other units from the bottom of the rack to the top in decreasing order of the weight of the units.
