Rack-Mounting the Chassis | Cisco Systems 1900 Series manual

Chapter 4 Installing and Connecting the Router

Setting Up the Chassis

Step 3 Hang the router on the screws. This is the appropriate orientation for safe use. (See Figure 4-3and Figure 4-4.)

Rack-Mounting the Chassis

Warning Read the wall-mounting instructions carefully before beginning installation. Failure to use the correct hardware or to follow the correct procedures could result in a hazardous situation to people and damage to the system. Statement 378

Warning Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the rack must be bolted to the floor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over. Statement 1048

The Cisco 1900 series router can be installed in a 19-inch EIA rack. Mounting brackets allow installing in either a front and rear facing position.

You can mount the router in the following ways:

•Front mounting—Brackets attached at the front of the chassis with the front panel facing forward.

•Back mounting—Brackets attached at the back of the chassis with the back panel facing forward.

Note The rubber feet need to be removed for rack mounting.

Attaching Rack-Mount Brackets to Cisco 1900 Series Routers

Use four of the supplied number-8 Phillips screws to attach the long side of each bracket to the router. Figure 4-5shows how to attach the brackets to the sides of the router with the front panel forward. Torque the screws to 15 to 18 in-lb (1.7 to 2.0 N-m).

Depending on your router model and if you decide to front mount or back mount, attach the brackets according to one of the following figures:
