Installing the Hub in a Rack

This section describes how to install the hub in 19- and 24-inch standard and telco racks.

Note Be sure the hub is powered off and is not connected to a power source before you perform the steps in the sections that follow.

Attaching the Brackets to the Hub

The bracket orientation and the screws you use depend on whether you plan to use a 19-inch or a 24-inch rack:

•For a 19-inch rack-mount, use the Phillips ﬂat-head screws to attach the long side of the bracket to the hub.

•For a 24-inch rack-mount, use the Phillips truss-head screws to attach the short side of the bracket to the hub.

Place the hub on a level surface, and use two of the supplied Phillips ﬂat-head or truss-head screws to attach a mounting bracket to each side of the hub.

Figure 2-1, Figure 2-2, and Figure 2-3 show how to attach one bracket to one side of the hub. Follow the same steps for the opposite side of the hub.
