Connect the appropriate cables and power cords, being sure that you adhere to all
cautions and warnings contained in the individual component installation
instructions.
8.
Remove the cable access panel and route the cables (using the conduit if present).
Using the Template
Use the template that shipped with your rack-mountable component to mark the
location of the mounting hardware on the mounting rails of the rack.
1.
Push back the tabs (marked
★
) on the top of the template and place them in the
correct holes in the mounting rails.
2.
Match up the hole pattern indicated on the sides of the template with the hole
pattern on the mounting rails.
Be sure you begin measuring in the correct place. If a rack component is already
installed immediately below the planned position of the new component, place the
template on top of the previously installed component against the front mounting
rails.
