ADTRAN Total Access 1500 Job Aid

Brand: ADTRAN

Model: Total Access 1500

Type: Job Aid

ADTRAN Total Access 1500 is a wall-mountable chassis designed to securely house and protect networking equipment. It features pre-drilled mounting holes and tilt flanges for easy installation and maintenance. The Total Access 1500 is constructed from durable 13-gauge cold rolled steel with a powder-coated finish for added strength and corrosion resistance. It provides protected openings on both sides for wire access, allowing for organized and efficient cable management. The included tilt flanges enable the chassis to be tilted up 90 degrees for convenient access to wiring and connectors during maintenance or troubleshooting.

GENERAL

The Total Access 1500 Wall Mount bracket assembly (P/N 1180012L1) is constructed

of 13-gauge cold rolled steel with a powder-coated finish. All holes are pre-drilled

and the tilt flanges factory installed. Protected openings are provided on both sides

for wire access.

The Total Access 1500 Wall Bracket assembly consists of the following:

■ Wall mount bracket

■ Total Access 1500 tilt flanges (2)

■ Wall mount fasteners (six 1/4 x 1-in. lag screws w/ flat washers)

The wall bracket is designed to securely mount the Total Access 1500 chassis such

that when tilted, the circuit card front panels face up and wiring connections face

down.

In the operating position two spring-loaded captured thumbscrews on the bracket,

one on each side, insert into threaded holes on the tilt flanges locking the chassis in

place.

To tilt the unit to the maintenance position, unscrew the thumbscrews until

disengaged from the tilt flanges, tilt the chassis up 90 degrees, then lock in that posi-

tion using the thumbscrews in the alternate set of threaded holes in the tilt flanges.

Caution: Do not perform maintenance or manipulate wiring unless the chassis is locked

in the maintenance position. Do not remove or insert circuit cards unless the

chassis is locked in the operating position.

The wall bracket is shipped with the tilt flanges installed on the bracket. After

installation the Total Access 1500 chassis is mounted to the tilt flanges using the

fasteners included with the chassis. Position the chassis such that the front four

threaded holes on each side of the chassis are used for attachment to the tilt flanges.

Ensure all fasteners are used.

NOTE: One fastener on each side is masked to create metal-to-metal contact for chassis to

bracket ground.

INSTALLATION

After unpacking the unit inspect it for damage. If damage is noted, file a claim with

the carrier, then contact ADTRAN. See

Warranty section.

Caution: The Total Access 1500 wall bracket is intended for installation in a limited access,

environmentally controlled space.

The wall bracket is designed to mount to a 3/4-inch minimum plywood panel

securely mounted to studs, frame, wall, or an arrangement of equivalent strength.

The bracket is 22-3/4 inches wide not counting locking thumbscrews and 8 inches

high including the two mounting flanges that extend upward from the mounting

backplane. Do not install any unit above the bracket that will prevent a full 90-

degree tilt of the Total Access 1500 chassis. Allow sufficient clearance below the

bracket, including distance from the floor, to gain easy access to backplane wiring

and connectors while in the maintenance position. Installation should allow

sufficient clearance on either side of the bracket for wire turn radius and access to

tilt flange fasteners. The data cable side will require a 1-foot minimum space for a

data cable loop for flexibility to tilt the Total Access 1500 chassis.

Installation Steps

Installation requires a hammer, center punch, drill, 1/8-inch drill bit, socket wrench

set, and #2 Phillips-head screwdriver. The bracket can be used as a template to

mark the pilot hole locations, or see the reverse side for an illustration that shows

mounting hole locations in inches.

Bracket Installation

1. Determine the location for the bracket. Position the bracket against the

mounting surface adhering to previously described clearances.

2. Ensuring the bracket is level, mark the six mounting hole locations with a

marker, remove the bracket.

3. Using a center punch, indent the pilot hole locations to facilitate drilling.

4. Using the 1/8-inch bit, drill the six pilot holes.

5. Position the bracket so an upper mounting hole aligns with the associated pilot

hole then partially insert a mounting lag screw and washer.

6. With the bracket now suspended, align the bracket mounting holes to the pilot

holes and insert the remaining lag screws and washers, tighten all fasteners.

7. Position the tilt flanges in the operating position and lock in place.

Total Access 1500 Installation

The customer is responsible for terminating power, ground, tip, ring, alarm,

management, and data wiring to the Total Access 1500 backplane. Some of this wiring

can be installed prior to mounting the chassis. Refer to Total Access 1500

documentation for wiring terminations.

NOTE: For procedure purposes wiring falls into two categories: backplane wiring consisting

of power, ground, tip, ring, etc., and the amphenol cable bundle

1. On the Total Access 1500 chassis, remove installed circuit cards.

2. Lift and maneuver the chassis so any pre-attached backplane wiring can be fed

out through the access openings. Ensure the plastic protector on the access

edges is not dislodged.

3. Align the four threaded mounting holes on each side of the chassis to the match-

ing tilt flange holes then insert the included fasteners and tighten. Ensure posi-

tive ground contact on the two masked fasteners.

4. Tilt and lock the Total Access 1500 in the maintenance position.

NOTE: Standard flanges shipped with the Total Access 1500 are not used in this installation.

Wire Management

Caution: Grounding. Connect ground from the green ground wire attached to the bracket

ground post, to the Total Access 1500 TB1 GND terminal on the backplane.

Connect office ground to the adjacent bracket ground post. Ensure ground circuit

continuity.

1. Feed backplane wiring through the appropriate side access opening and make

connections to designated terminations.

2. Do not fasten wiring to bracket tie downs as that will prevent tilting movement.

3. Allow enough slack in the backplane wiring so it does not bind or chafe when

tilting the chassis then dress and lace to workmanship standards. Check

freedom of movement and correct as necessary then secure the wiring to the

mounting surface.

4. The amphenol connectors feed through the right side access opening then insert

into the appropriate socket on the Total Access 1500 backplane as indicated by

the labeling.

5. Secure the amphenols to the connectors with the included fasteners and

tie-wraps.

6. Group amphenol wiring into a tight bundle and tie wrap appropriately. Fasten as close as

possible to the backplane using the backplane tie down fixtures.

7. Where the amphenol bundle exits the access opening create a loop about a foot in diame-

ter. Test freedom of movement then secure the bundle to the mounting surface.

NOTE: There will always be some interference to tilt movement caused by the amphenol cable

bundle rubbing against the access opening. However, the infrequent requirement to tilt the

chassis precludes cable wear. Prototype testing of this arrangement showed no cable wear

after numerous cycles. Operators can eliminate cable rub by hand feeding the cable loop

through the access opening when tilting the chassis.

8. Return and lock the Total Access 1500 in the operating position.

This completes the Wallmount Bracket and Total Access 1500 installation. Refer to associated

documentation for further wiring instructions and system turnup.
