Rack-Mounting a Cisco 7200 VXR Router

If you plan to install the cable-management brackets on a Cisco 7200 VXR router that you are
rack-mounting, you must install the cable-management brackets and the rack-mount brackets on the
chassis before you install the chassis in the rack.
There are two cable-management bracket configurations when you rack-mount a Cisco 7200 VXR
router from the front. In the first configuration, the cable-management brackets are installed over the
rack-mount brackets, and four screws secure both sets of brackets to the chassis. (See
Figure 3-4.) In the
second configuration, two screws secure each rack-mount bracket to the chassis, and two additional
screws secure each cable-management bracket to a rack-mount bracket. (See
Figure 3-5.)
