Use the second hole up from the bottom of the rack-mount bracket and the second hole down from
the top of the rack-mount bracket. This will make it easier to attach the cable-management bracket
to the chassis in the equipment rack.
Note
Step 4
Hold the chassis in position against the mounting rails while the second person finger-tightens a screw to the
rack rails on each side of the chassis.
Step 5
Finger-tighten screws to the rack rails on each side of the chassis.
Step 6
Tighten all the screws on each side to secure the chassis to the equipment rack.
