Rack-Mounting the Chassis<br />

Note<br />

The chassis are designed to be mounted in equipment racks that meet ANSI/EIA 310-D and<br />

ETS 300-119 standards.<br />

Warning<br />

Two people are required to lift the chassis. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your<br />

legs, not your back. Statement 164<br />

Tip<br />

We recommend that you have a third person to assist in this procedure.<br />

To install the switch chassis into the equipment rack, follow these steps:<br />

Step 1<br />

Determine the positioning of the chassis in the rack enclosure. Identify the rack post holes that will be<br />

used. If the rack post holes are prethreaded, determine if the threads are 10-32 or 12-24. If the rack post<br />

holes are unthreaded, install either 10-32 or 12-24 clip or cage nuts over the holes to accept the<br />

installation screws.<br />

Note<br />

Clip or cage nuts are not included as part of the accessory kit that comes with the chassis. You<br />

must obtain them yourself.<br />
