Before installing a slide rail, make sure that the weight capacity of the slide rail meets requirements.
The RG-N18000 series switch is available in two models with different heights.
There are variable kinds of slide rails. The rail appearance and installation is subject to actual conditions.
In order to keep the cabinet balanced, please install the slide rail to as low a position as possible in the
cabinet if only one RG-N18000 switch is installed. If you are mounting multiple device to the cabinet, mount
the heaviest device in the lowest position of the cabinet first and proceed to mount the rest of the devices
from bottom to top.
It is recommended to install the power socket after planning on available space properly. Otherwise, there
may be problems for operation.
Mounting the Switch to a Cabinet
Precautions
Before mounting RG-N18000 into the cabinet, first verify that the front and back brackets of the cabinet are at the right
locations. If the bracket is too far forward, the front panel of the equipment may be too close to the front door, so that the
front door cannot be closed when network cables and pigtail fibers are connected. Usually, you should reserve at least
10mm between the front panel of the equipment and that of the cabinet after installation. Before mounting into a cabinet,
you need to address the following conditions:
 Fasten the cabinet.
 Insert various modules in the frame properly.
 Remove any obstacle in the frame and the surrounding environment.
 Prepare the equipment and move it to the place near the cabinet where you can handle it easily.
Five people are recommended to carry or lift the switch. One is responsible for directing and the other four
carrying or lifting the switch.
Installation Steps
Measure the cabinet height and locate the position on the bracket for installing the slide rail. Then locate the position on
the other bracket through the carrying
plane and mark the locations. Install seven cage nuts on the marked square holes
on each bracket as shown in figure 3-19.
