Note:
Before mounting the DCRS-9800 series into the rack, verify that the mounting
positions of the rack are correct. Preposition of the mounting points may result in
inadequate spacing between the switch front panel and the rack front door, and the
rack front door may be unable to be closed with cables and fiber cables connected.
Please keep a 10 mm spacing between the switch front panel and the rack front door.
Verify the following before installation: the rack is stably positioned; all modules
inside the chassis are fully installed; no obstructions are present inside or around the
rack; the switch is situated near the rack for ease of installation.

Installation Steps
Step 1: Attach the 2 hangers on the DCRS-9800 series with screws provided in the
accessory kit.
Be sure to attach the hangers in the correct direction, otherwise the switch
will not be able to mount into a standard rack.
Note that the hangers are not weight bearing. They are used to fasten the
switch. The mounting Shelf or sliding rails (bolt to the rack) will support the
switch. The figure below shows the steps for mounting the hangers:
Step 2: Put the hanger-mounted switch smoothly into a standard 19’’ rack.
Because of the size and weight of a DCRS-9800 series, 2 people are
required to complete the installation. With a person standing on each side of
the chassis, grasp the chassis handle in the lower side panel with one hand,
and use the other hand near the top of the chassis for balance. Slowly lift the
chassis in unison and carry it to the rack. Lift the DCRS-9800 series to a
position a little higher than the mounting shelf or sliding rails, resting the
chassis on the shelf/rails, and then carefully slide the chassis into the rack.
Be sure to align the hangers and mounting holes in the rack column.
Step 3: Fasten the DCRS-9800 series to the rack with the screws provided.
Bolt the hangers to the matching holes in the rack column with the screws
provided. Be sure to tighten the screws smoothly. The DCRS-9800 series
should now be securely attached to the equipment rack.
