Prepare the device for mounting.
a. Place the device on a flat, stable surface.
b. Align the mounting brackets along the front or rear of the side panels of the device
chassis depending on how you want to mount the device. For example, if you want
to front-mount the device, align the brackets along the front of the side panel such
that the mounting ears are in the front of the device chassis. See
Figure 42 on page 201 .
c. Align the holes in the mounting brackets with holes on the side panels of the device
chassis.
d. Insert mounting screws into the aligned holes. Tighten the screws.
5.
Mount the device.
a. Grasp both sides of the device, lift it, and position it in the rack so that the rear of
the chassis slides onto the installation blade. See Figure 42 on page 201 .
TIP: If someone is assisting you, have one person stand at the rear of
the rack where the installation blade is installed, to help guide the
device onto the installation blade.
b. Align the holes in the front brackets on the chassis with the holes in the rack. Ensure
that the chassis is level.
c. With four mounting screws—and cage nuts and washers if your rack requires
them—secure the front of the device to the rack. Tighten the screws.
d. Ensure that the device chassis is level by verifying that all screws on one side of
the rack are aligned with the screws on the other side.
