Strata CTX670 Installation
Cabinet Installation Considerations
The Base (CHSUB672) and Expansion (CHSUE672) Cabinets can be wall or floor mounted. To make
it easier to add cabinets (after the initial installation) when a customer needs to expand, install the Base
Cabinet on top for wall-mount installations and on the bottom for floor-mount installations.
The dimensions of the Base and Expansion Cabinets are:
Height: Base Cabinet: 29.8cm (11 3/4 inches)
Height: Expansion Cabinet/Remote Expansion Cabinet: 25.4cm (10 inches)
Width: 67.31cm (26 1/2 inches)
Depth: 27cm (10 5/8 inches)
Weight: approx. 13.8kg (30.5 lbs.)
Note
The weight approximates a cabinet completely filled with PCBs. Weight may vary slightly,
depending on PCBs.
Recommended Installation Sequence
1. Install power supplies in cabinets.
2. Mount cabinets on wall or floor.
3. Install ground wiring.
4. Install AC power cabling to cabinets.
5. Install reserve power cabling.
6. Install PCBs and PCB cabling.
Each cabinet requires four wood screws (#12 X 2 inch size) for wall mount installation. Wood
Note
screws are not provided with the system.
Step 1: Install Power Supply
The Base and Expansion Cabinets are factory-shipped without the power supply installed. The
CTX670 cabinets use the BPSU672 power supply, which is different from the DK280 or Strata CT.
To install power supplies in cabinets of new or installed systems
1. Remove the power supply from its box. The power supply AC power cord for 230VAC and the
power supply mounting screws are provided with the KSU cabinet.
2. Make sure that the front and right side covers are removed from the cabinet (see
3. Slide the power supply into the right side of the cabinet so that its four mounting holes align with
the four cabinet mounting holes. (Make sure that the two backplane FG wires are positioned
between the FG wire holder and the power supply.)
