The following section details the process of attaching mounting brackets to the 7C04 Chassis, and installing the chassis in a standard 19-inch equipment rack.

If you are not installing the chassis in an equipment rack, skip to Section 2.3.

2.2.1 Attaching Mounting Brackets

An accessory package containing two mounting brackets is shipped with each 7C04 Chassis. The bracket that attaches to the left side of the chassis contains the letters “BL” on the bottom front of the bracket. The bracket that attaches to the right side of the chassis contains the letters “BR” on the bottom front of the bracket.

To attach mounting brackets to the chassis, use the following steps and refer to Figure 2-1:

1.Stand the chassis on its left side with the front of the chassis facing you.

2.Use a phillips-head screwdriver to remove the two screws closest to the front of the chassis. Set the screws aside.

3.Align the two round holes of the right mounting bracket with the holes (from which you removed the screws) on the right side of the chassis.

4.Insert the screws that you removed in step 2 into the holes on the bracket and chassis. Tighten the screws until the mounting bracket is securely attached to the chassis.

5.Stand the chassis on its right side with the front facing you.

6.Use a phillips-head screwdriver to remove the two screws closest to the front of the chassis. Set the screws aside.
