Chapter 3 Installing the Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series Appliance

Mounting the Cisco ADE 2130 and 2140 Series Appliance in a 2-Post Rack

Caution To prevent injury, review the “Safety Guidelines” section on page 2-2and the “Rack-Mounting Configuration Guidelines” section on page 3-2before installing the appliance in the equipment rack.

Step 1 Locate the equipment rack position you plan to install the appliance into.

Step 2 Verify that there are no obstructions and ensure that the equipment rack is stabilized.

Step 3 Position the appliance in the equipment rack, lining up the bracket holes on the appliance with the holes on the rack, and secure it with two 10-32 x 1/2-inch rack screws (each side). You need two people to install the appliance in the rack—one person to hold the appliance and one person to secure it to the rack.

Note The vertical spacing for the equipment rack is at least 1.75 inches (4.44 cm), with mounting holes spaced 1.5 inches (3.81 cm) apart.

Step 4 Tighten the screws using a Number 2 Phillips screwdriver (each side).
