Mounting Flange Cage Nuts
Check that the rail kit hardware about to be used is designed to work with the
mounting flange holes used in the cabinet. Most rail kits supplied by Sun work best
with square holes, but some come with cage nuts for both mounting flange types.

U-Shaped EIA Mounting Flanges are in many racks. It is required that there is an
"offset" of more than 16.77mm (15mm is typical). This offset (between the two edges
of the mounting flange) is critical for proper mounting of rail kits and for ensuring
that the rails have sufficient clearance during installation. See
