Installation and Replacement

This section explains how to install the rack mount version of the Vanguard 6455.

Be sure that you have the mounting brackets that came with the unit.

When rack-mounting a Vanguard 6455, you can orient the unit in either of two ways:

• Front Panel Forward: The front panel faces the front of the rack. This allows 

you to easily read the LCD panel display. The cables run out the rear of the 
rack.

• Rear Panel Forward: The rear panel faces the front of the rack. This allows 

you to easily access the cables and to replace and install the motherboard and 
cards. 

For either mounting method, refer to Figure 3-3.

Take note of these considerations before and after rack-mounting your Vanguard 
6455.

It is possible to subject the rack-mounted Vanguard 6455 to high temperatures. Be 
sure the ambient temperature in the equipment rack and around the inlets of the cards 
and power supply does not exceed the recommended temperature limits listed in 
Appendix A.

Be sure that the rack-mounted Vanguard 6455 has adequate air flow for cooling 
purposes. Leave a minimum of 2 inch (5 cm) clearance on each side. (Inadequate 
airflow can cause thermal shutdown of the power supply.)

When mounting a Vanguard 6455 in a rack, be sure the mounting screws are 
adequately tightened so the enclosure does not bend or fall.

Be sure that the power circuit to which the Vanguard 6455 is connected is not 
overloaded.

Be sure that the rack-mounted Vanguard 6455 is properly grounded at all times.
