Connecting the grounding cable to the chassis
CAUTION:
The primary grounding point and auxiliary grounding point are located on the left panel of the
chassis. If you use one of these grounding points, you must connect the grounding cable to the
grounding point before you mount the switch in the rack.
To connect the grounding cable to a grounding point:
1.
Choose a grounding point as required.
This example uses the primary grounding point.
2.
Unpack the grounding cable and grounding screws.
3.
Use two grounding screws to attach the two-hole grounding lug of the grounding cable to the
grounding holes at the grounding point. Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws. See
Figure 9

Attaching the slide rails to the rack
1.
Identify the slide rail installation position in the rack.
2.
Install cage nuts (user-supplied) in the mounting holes in the rack posts.
3.
Align the screw holes in one slide rail with the cage nuts in a rear rack post, and use screws
(user-supplied) to attach the slide rail to the post, as shown in
Figure 12
.
4.
Repeat the preceding steps to attach the other slide rail to the other rear rack post.
Keep the two slide rails at the same height so the slide rails can attach into the chassis rails.
