Rack-Mounting the Chassis in a NEBS-Compliant Mode
• Place the chassis on the floor or on a sturdy table as close as possible to the rack. Leave enough clearance
to allow you to move around the chassis.
• Open the rack-mount kit and verify that all parts are included.
Note
Some equipment racks provide a power strip along the length of one of the rear posts. If your rack has this
feature, consider the position of the strip when planning fastener points. Before installing the brackets on the
chassis, determine whether to install the chassis from the front or the rear of the rack.
Procedure
Step 1
Remove and discard the mounting ears and the ten mounting screws of the chassis. Do not reuse them during
any part of the installation process.
