Thanks Mike. I checked by searching the document for the words: metal, rack, frame, shelf - each separately - and can't find in the Verizon document any specification or requirement that the rack must be made out of metal (or not). ANy idea where it might be? Neven

Hi Nevin, The rack requirement is not in GR-1089. It is a supplemental Verizon document http://www.verizonnebs.com/TPRs/VZ-TPR-9305.pdf Regards, Mike From: Neven Pischl [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, November 19, 2013 7:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [PSES] Equipment rack for GR1089 testing - does it have to be metal? Hello All, Is there a formal requirement, by either Telcordia/NEBS or by the major telecom carriers that the equipment rack (i.e. not the cable rack) be metal, when testing radiated immunity per the GR1089? I understand it is the usual practice - I have only seen such tests with a metal rack - but I am asking if there is such a requirement spelled out anywhere. I can't find it in GR1089. If any on this list knows of it, please can you forward the document, at least maybe a snapshot of the relevant paragraph along with the reference if the document can't be forwarded.
