Delivery and Installation Constraints |
|
|
Is there a loading dock available to unload the equipment at this site? |
|
|
Is the path to the installation area unobstructed? If not, can special arrangements be made to get the equipment to the installation area? Describe them. |
|
|
On what floor is the installation? |
|
|
If it is on a floor other than the ground floor, is there a freight elevator available? Note if the equipment will have to be brought up a flight of stairs. |
|
|
Is there someone on site during working hours to accept delivery of the materials? If not, list the times this person would be available. |
|
|
For more information, see Shipping and Receiving. |
|
|
Floor Mounting |
|
|
How many Cisco CRS 16-Slot Line Card Chassis Enhanced routers will be installed? Is there floor space available for all of the chassis? |
|
|
Does the floor meet the routing system floor-loading requirements? |
|
|
Can the primary or secondary chassis mounting locations be used to secure the chassis to the floor, or will an outrigger kit be required? |
|
|
Make a sketch of the area where the chassis is to be installed and note the chassis location. |
|
|
For more information, see Space Planning. |
|
|
Power |
|
|
Is AC or DC power available for the chassis? Is there a connection point on the panel for the chassis? |
|
|
Is there a fuse access panel (FAP) available for the equipment? Provide a connection point on the fuse access panel for each chassis. |
|
|
Will a fuse access panel be installed in time for the routing system installation? Provide a date when the FAP will be installed. |
|
|
Is the FAP in the same room as the chassis? |
|
|
Is there an AC power outlet (220 V or 110 V) located within 10 feet of each chassis for PCs and test equipment? |
|
|
Is there proper grounding for the equipment? If not, when will the grounding be available? Provide a connection point for the grounding. |
|
|
Are there any restrictions when the equipment can be powered on or when electrical work can be done? If so, describe them. |
|
|
Are there special requirements for power or power cables (for example, a different wire gauge, and so on)? If so, describe them. |
|
|
For more information, see Power and Cooling Requirements. |
