Juniper MX10016 - Installing the Front Panel; Front Panel Mounting Hardware

Step 5–Installing the Front Panel
The front panel is required on the MX10016 to protect fiber optic cabling and to provide additional protection from
electromagnetic interference (EMI). The front panel can be installed with or without the optional cable management
system.
Ensure that you have the following tools and parts before you begin:
•
A Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2
•
Front panel (provided with the router chassis)
•
Right base bracket (provided)
•
Left base bracket (provided)
•
2 interchangeable latch brackets (provided)
•
8 Phillips flat head mounting screws (provided)
To install the front panel:
1. Remove the plastic bag that is taped to the front panel, which holds the brackets and screws.
2. Use the Phillips screwdriver to attach two mounting screws to the left base bracket at the bottom left side of the
chassis frame. The base brackets are larger than the latch brackets.
NOTE: The right and left base brackets cannot be interchanged (see Figure 12).
