Rack-Mounting the Router Chassis

Installing Center-Mount Brackets—Optional

If you plan to install the router in the center-mount position, you must install the center-mount brackets to the rack rails first. If you do not plan to use the optional center-mount brackets, proceed directly to the “Installing the Chassis in the Rack” section on page 3-23.

The optional center-mount bracket installation kit ships in the accessories box included with the router and contains the following:

•Two center-mount brackets.

•10 (minimum) Phillips binderhead screws (usually provided with the bracket kit) to secure the brackets to the mounting flanges (also called rails) in the rack. Five screws should be installed on each bracket.

Contact a Cisco service representative for assistance if any parts are missing.

Note Before installing the center-mount brackets, make sure you have performed the measurements described in “Verifying Rack Dimensions” section on page 3-17.

Use the following procedure to install the center-mount brackets to the rack rails.

Step 1 Determine the location in which you want to position the bottom of the router chassis in the rack, and mark holes at the same height on both the left and right rack rails.
