Figure 3: Attaching Mounting-Rails to the ACX5048 Router
5. Attach the side-mounting rail to the router by using six mounting screws. Use cage
nuts and washers if your rack requires them.
6. Repeat Step 4 and Step 5 on the opposite side of the router.
Install the ACX5048 Router in the Rack
The router can be installed horizontally in a rack or cabinet.
Two people are required to install the ACX5048 router. The chassis weighs approximately
21.8 lb (9.8 kg). To install the chassis:
1. Ensure that the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. Ensure
that the installation site allows adequate clearance for both airflow and maintenance.
2. Position the router in front of the rack or cabinet.
3. Have one person grasp both sides of the router, lift it, and position it in the rack so that
the front bracket is aligned with the rack holes.
4. Have a second person secure the front of the router to the rack by using four mounting
screws (and cage nuts and washers if your rack requires them). Tighten the screws.
5. Continue to support the router while sliding the rear mounting-blades into the channel
of the side mounting-rails and securing the blades to the rack. Use the four mounting
screws (and cage nuts and washers if your rack requires them) to attach each blade
to the rack. Tighten the screws.
6. Ensure that the router chassis is level by verifying that all the screws on the front of
the rack are aligned with the screws at the back of the rack. See Figure 4 on page 6.
