EIA Posts
EIA posts are mounting posts for securing slide rails, drawers, shelves and other
rack components. Since on occasion you may have to remove or modify the location
of these posts, the below procedures for installing and uninstalling EIA posts are
included here.
Each EIA post has four securing screws that attach to spring mounted screw holes
on the rack's horizontal struts. The posts should be placed so that they are arranged
with the unit numbers facing out the front or rear of the SuperRack with the number
"42" on top and the "1" on the bottom. SuperRack EIA posts accept square cage
nuts for securing rack components with panel screws.
