To remove the rack-mount ears from the unit
To remove the rack-mount ears from the unit, locate the four screws that
hold the rack-mount ears to the unit and unscrew them. You must do this for
both rack-mount ears, one on either side of the unit. Save the screws you
removed for the next procedure.
Installing the kit hardware
After you have removed the rack-mount ears from the unit, you must install
the rail-mount kit. The rail-mount kit consists of these parts:
• Two inner rails that you attach to either side of the unit. Once the kit is
installed, these inner rails slide into the outer rails that you install onto
the rack.
• Two stops that you attach to either side of the unit.
• Two outer rails that you attach to the rack. The inner rails that you install
on the sides of the unit will slide into these outer rails.
• Four optional brackets and screws for use on square-holed racks.
