To install the shelf brackets in a Telco rack, follow these steps:
Step 1
Position a shelf bracket inside a rack-mounting post as shown in the above figure and align the screw holes at the front
of the shelf bracket with the holes in the rack-mounting post. Then attach the shelf bracket to the rack-mounting post
using a minimum of four 12-24 or 10-24 screws.
The bottom hole of the shelf bracket should align with the bottom hole of a rack unit on the rack-mounting post
(the hole immediately above the 1/2 in. spacing).
Note
Step 2
Repeat with the other shelf bracket.
Step 3
Verify that the shelf brackets are at the same height (using the level or tape measure as desired).
Step 4
Attach the crossbar to the rear of the shelf brackets as shown in the above figure, using the 10-32 screws.
