Multishelf System Site Planning Checklist
Multishelf System Site Planning Checklist
Table C-3 lists the sequence of tasks to perform as you plan the installation of the multishelf system. Use
the table as a checklist for all aspects of the installation. For information about a particular task, see the
appropriate section of this site planning guide. After completing the checklist, you should consult your
Cisco installation coordinator for a site readiness inspection.
Multishelf System Preliminary Site Survey
Typically, you should complete a preliminary site survey before you plan a detailed site survey. This
preliminary survey ensures that the basic system requirements have been completed or are underway
before detailed plans for the site are completed. Table C-4 is a sample preliminary site survey.
Have you planned the cable management for
all of the chassis cables?
