Step3 Thread four 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.
Step4 Repeat Step 1 through Step 3 for the other rack-mount bracket.
Step5 If you plan to include the cable-management bracket in your front rack-mount configuration, align the
bracket with the two right front-side holes.
Step6 Thread two M3 x 6-mm Phillips panhead screws through the cable-management bracket and into the
chassis, and tighten the screws.
This completes the procedure for installing the rack-mount brackets on the chassis for a front rack-mount
configuration. Proceed to the “Installing the Chassis in the Rack” section on page3-10.
Caution To prevent injury, review the safety precautions in Chapter2, “Preparing the Cisco uBR7225VXR
