2. Attach each rack ear on each side of the chassis with two (2) 8-32 screws, as shown in Figure 7 (left-side rack
ear shown). For two-post rack mounting, the ears are placed to fix the center of the appliance at the point where
the rack ears fasten to the two-post rack, preventing strain on the chassis and maintaining a center of gravity.

Four-Post Rack Mounting
Caution: The 600mm chassis rack rails kit provided with the Infoblox SoT 1405 Series appliance provides only a
limited range of travel. It does not extend across the entire depth of the equipment rack. Exercise caution when
withdrawing the appliance from its position in the equipment rack.
For a four-post rack mount, you combine the bundled pair of rack ears with a pair of chassis rack rails providing up
to 600mm depth in a four-post rack. The chassis rack rail assembly is bundled with the appliance at time of
purchase. This kit also is provided as a field-replaceable unit; see Replaceable Unit and SFP Part Numbers in this
Guide for information. The chassis rack rail kit is designed to allow one person to perform the physical installation
of the rack rail kit and the appliance.
1. Align the mounting holes on the rack ears with the front-most mounting holes on each side of the chassis.
2. Attach a rack ear to each side of the chassis with two (2) 8-32 screws, as shown in Figure 8.
