4. Equipment Installation
1 Rack Unit
Note: The unit comes with two different kinds of screws for equipment installation, black and silver. Use the black
mounting screws if you are securing your equipment to the square hole side of the mounting rail. Use the silver screws
if you are securing your equipment to the tapped hole side of the mounting rail.
-Installing Cage Nuts
1
Locate the numbered square openings in the mounting rails where you plan to install your equipment. You
will install cage nuts (included) into the square openings to provide an attachment point for the mounting
screws (included). Note: Consult your equipment documentation to determine how many cage nuts will be
required and where they will need to be installed.
a-
From the inside of the mounting rail, insert one of the flanges of the cage nut through the square opening.
Press it against the side of the square opening. Each flange should engage one side of the square opening, not
the top or bottom.
b-
Compress the cage nut at the sides slightly to allow the remaining flange to fit through the square opening.
When the cage nut is properly installed, both flanges will protrude through the square opening and will be
visible on the outer surface of the mounting rail. Repeat steps 1a and 1b until all required cage nuts are
installed.
2
After installing the required cage nuts, use the included black mounting screws and cup washers to secure
your equipment to the rack rail. Place the cup washers between the screws and the equipment mounting
brackets.
