Rack-Mounting
4. Attach the other assembly to the other side of the rack, making
sure both are at the exact same height and with the rail guides
facing inward.
You should now have rails attached to both the appliance and the rack
unit. The next step is to install the appliance into the rack.
Note –
Do not install the appliance upside down.
T
To install the appliance into the rack
1. Line up the rear of the inner rails with the front of the outer rails.
2. Slide the inner rails into the outer rails, keeping the pressure even
on both sides (you may have to depress the locking tabs when
inserting). When the appliance has been pushed completely into
the rack, you should hear the locking tabs "click".
3. Finish by inserting and tightening the thumbscrews that hold the
front of the appliance to the rack.

Installing the Appliance into a Two-Post Telco Rack
Once you have detached the inner rails from the rail assembly and
attached them to the appliance, you can continue installing the
appliance into a two-post Telco rack.
T
To attach the outer rails to the two-post Telco rack
1. Locate a pair of front (short) and rear (long) brackets supplied with
the appliance. The front brackets are marked with Up/Front Arrows
and the back brackets with Up/Rear arrows.
2. Secure the front (short) bracket (marked with Up/Front Arrows) to
the outer rail with two screws (see
Illustration 5
