Determining which rack mounting kit to use
The 2000/4000 Series platform comes with two types of rack mounting kits: stationary front-mounting and
sliding quick-install rail-mounting. An advantage of installing the quick-install kit is that you can then slide
the unit in and out of the rack as needed.
The tasks required to install the platform differ depending on the type of rack mount you decide to use or
which type of cabinet unit you are installing into (single two-post cabinet or four-post cabinet).
About the front-mounting kit
