Before mounting an MX150 on two posts in a rack:
•
Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and
maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.
•
Read “General Safety Guidelines and Warnings” on page 121.
•
Remove the router from the shipping carton.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
•
Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 2
•
Two mounting brackets and eight mounting screws (provided in the accessory box
shipped with the router)
•
Screws to secure the chassis to the rack (not provided)
NOTE: One person must be available to lift the device while another secures
the device to the rack.
CAUTION: If you are mounting multiple devices on a rack, mount a device in
the bottom of the rack first and proceed to mount the rest of the devices
from bottom to top.
To mount the MX150 on two posts in a rack:
1. Place the MX150 on a flat, stable surface.
2. Align the mounting brackets along the front, rear, or center of the side panels of the
device chassis depending on how you want to mount the device. For example, if you
want to front-mount the device, align the brackets along the front of the side panel.
See Figure 12 on page 80.

NOTE: If you need to mount the MX150 in a recessed position, use the
2-in.-recess front-mount brackets from the separately orderable four-post
rack-mount kit.
