Installing the Brackets on the Chassis

This section explains how to install the rack-mount brackets and cable-management bracket on a Cisco uBR7225VXR universal broadband router. Before installing the chassis in the rack, you must install cable-management bracket and a rack-mount bracket on each side of the front, middle, or rear of the chassis.

The parts and tools required for installing the rack-mount and cable-management bracket are listed in the “Installation Tools” section on page 2-8.

Installing Rack-Mount Brackets on the Rear of the Chassis

To install the rack-mount brackets and cable-management bracket on the chassis for a rear rack-mount configuration, complete the following steps:

Step 1 Locate the threaded holes in the rear sides of the chassis.

Step 2 Align the first rack-mount bracket to the threaded holes in the right side of the chassis. See Figure 3-8.

Note

There are five holes in each of the rack-mount brackets for the Cisco uBR7225VXR router. Four holes

 

 

are used for front and middle mount, and five holes are used for rear mount.

 

 

 

 

Step 3

Thread five M4 x 6-mm Phillips flathead screws through the rack-mount bracket and into the side of the

 

 

chassis. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws.

 

Step 4

Repeat Step 1 through Step 3 for the other rack-mount bracket.

 

Step 5

If you plan to include the cable-management bracket in your rear rack-mount configuration, align the

 

 

bracket with the two right front-side holes.
