Mounting the Chassis Using a Fixed Rack Mount
Mounting the Chassis Using a Fixed Rack Mount
If you are not able to use the slide rail kit in your rack installation, an optional fixed rack-mount solution
is available. You can install fixed front and rear rack-mount brackets on the ASA 5585-X so that you can
easily mount it in a rack.
To fixed-mount the ASA 5585-X, follow these steps:
Step 1 If the adaptive security appliance is already operational and not rack-mounted, or if you are replacing an
adaptive security appliance with the ASA 5585-X, do the following:
• Power off the adaptive security appliance.
• Remove the power cable from the adaptive security appliance.
• Remove the old adaptive security appliance from the rack.
Step 2 Position the front bracket on the side of the adaptive security appliance and line up the bracket screws
with the screw holes on the adaptive security appliance.
Step 3 Tighten the screws into the chassis.
Step 4 Repeat this procedure on the other side of the chassis.
Step 5 You can now mount the chassis in a rack; go to Step 12. If using the optional rear rack rails, continue
with Step 6.
Step 6 Attach one of the rear brackets using three M4 screws.
