The following illustration shows a 1 EIA section and a 4 EIA section. Depending on
the rack manufacture the EIA sections may be separated by either color or by a
line. Note the holes along the rail are not evenly spaced. If your rack has no color
or line separation between EIAs, then assume that each EIA section begins where
the hole spacing is closest together.

4. If you do not have a rack mounting template do the following:
a. Determine where in the rack to place the system, make note of the EIA
location number.
Note: An EIA section on your rack consist of a grouping of three holes. Each
EIA section may be separated by either a color or a line. The system
you are about to install is 4 EIA.
b. Facing the front of the rack and working from the right side, place a supplied
self-adhesive dot next to the top hole of the bottom EIA.
Note: The self-adhesive dots are used to aid in identifying locations on the
rack. If you no longer have any of the dots use some other form of
marking tool to aid you in identifying hole locations. (for example:
marker, pencil)
c. Place another self-adhesive dot next to the top hole of the above EIA.
Note: If you are counting the holes, begin with the hole identified by the first
dot and count up four holes and place the second dot next to the fourth
hole.
d. Secure a nut clip to the rack 4 holes up from the top dot. The nut clip aids in
securing your system drawer to the rack while in transit.
Notes:
1) If you are counting the holes, begin with the hole identified by the top dot
and count up four holes and place the nut clip next to the fourth hole.
