Mounting the Chassis in a Standard Rack
Step 5 While facing the rear panel of the chassis, pull the handle on the right side of the router
while you support the component tray with one hand. Slide the component tray out of the
chassis shell.
Step 6 Set the component tray on your work surface.
Mounting the Chassis in a Standard Rack
After removing the chassis shell and front panel, you can install the standard rack-mount brackets
into the chassis shell. The standard 19-inch rack-mount kit (see Figure 4) consists of two sets of one
bracket, one short extender (approximately five inches) (see Figure 5), and one long extender
(approximately ten inches) (see Figure 6).
If you have an older version of the chassis, use the first of the following procedures to install the
standard rack-mount brackets. If you have a new version of the chassis, use the second procedure to
install the standard rack-mount brackets. After installing the brackets, use the third procedure to
install the chassis shell into a standard 19-inch rack.
Note The brackets provided with your kit fit both the early, tab-mount chassis shells and the newer
screw-mount chassis shells.
