Chapter 1 Unpacking and Installing the CSS
Installing the CSS 11800
When the brackets are in position for mounting the chassis in a rack, proceed to
the
“Rack-Mounting the CSS 11800 Chassis”
section.
Rack-Mounting the CSS 11800 Chassis
Once the mounting brackets are installed, you are ready to install the CSS 11800
chassis.
Warning
The weight and position of the CSS 11800 chassis within the cabinet may make
the cabinet top-heavy or unstable. Take all necessary precautions to anchor the
cabinet securely before installing the chassis.
To install the CSS 11800 chassis into a cabinet:
1.
Locate the mounting keys on the left and right mounting brackets (see
Figure 1-4
). Mounting keys are designed to fit over pan-head screws installed
in the mounting rack to hold the chassis in place while you secure the chassis
into the rack.
2.
Install a pan-head screw into the left and right sides of the mounting rack.
These screws fit into the mounting keys and hold the chassis.
3.
Raise the CSS to the appropriate installation height and place the mounting
keys over the installed pan-head screws. The CSS is now held in place by the
mounting keys so you can install the remaining screws.
4.
Align the screw holes on the mounting bracket with the screw holes on the
equipment cabinet and install the pan-head screws through the CSS and
cabinet brackets. The CSS 11800 requires five pan-head screws for each side
of the chassis.
