To Bracket Mount an APM
1. Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the APM E2000 towards the
front of the box. Use a screwdriver to firmly tighten the mounting
brackets (already attached to the APM 2500 and APM 5000).
2. Mount the APM securely to the vertical bars of the rack. Screws should
go in through the front of the brackets into the outside front of the vertical
bars. Be sure to locate the APM so the brackets line up correctly with the
holes. Be sure the right and left brackets are at the same height.

To Rail Mount an APM 2500 or 5000
1. Remove the inner rails from the rail assemblies. Slide each inner rail out
until it stops. Then depress the exposed locking tab to unlock the inner
rail and slide it out the rest of the way.
2. Attach the inner rails to the sides of the APM 2500 or APM 5000. When
the inner rails are correctly positioned, the tabs will be to the rear of the
APM, and the front three holes in the inner rails will line up with the holes
in the sides of the APM.
3. Attach the outer rails to the rack, using the end brackets. Be sure the open
end of each outer rail is located towards the front of the rack.
a. The shorter end brackets mount onto the front of the outer rails. Use
the two round screw holes in each front end bracket to mount it in a
fixed position to its respective outer rail.
b. The longer end brackets mount onto the rear of the outer rails. The
long slots in each rear end bracket can be adjusted to fit the bracket
and outer rail assembly to the exact length of the rack.
4. Slide the APM 2500 or 5000 into the front of the rack so the inner rails
engage into the outer rails.
5. Refer to “Safety Considerations When Rack Mounting” on page 28 of this
chapter to ensure safety.
6. Plug the power cable into the AlterPath Manager box.
Insert the female end of the black power cable into the power socket on
the console server and the three-prong end into a wall outlet.
