• Front Rack-Mount Bracket Installation—The chassis is shipped with the rack-mount brackets installed
in the front. Proceed to installation of the chassis in the rack.
• Middle Rack-Mount Bracket Installation—Install the mounting bracket in the middle of the chassis, so
that you can recess the chassis in the rack or install the chassis in a two-post rack unit.
If the chassis is mid-mounted, you cannot install the chassis installation handle.
Note
To install the rack-mount brackets in the middle of the chassis, complete the following steps:
Before you begin
Required Tools and Equipment
• #2 Phillips torque screwdriver
Step 1 Remove the rack-mount brackets installed in the front of the chassis by unscrewing the M5 undercut flat-head screws
using a #2 Phillips torque screwdriver.
Step 2 Locate the threaded holes at the middle on the side of the chassis that align with the holes in the rack-mount bracket.
Step 3 Install the 10 M5 undercut flat-head screws to secure each rack-mounting bracket to the chassis.
Secure five screws on each end of the rack-mounting bracket.
Step 4 Repeat the steps 1, 2, and 3 on the other side of the chassis.
