SRX240 Services Gateway Rack Requirements
The SRX240 Services Gateway can be installed in a rack. Many types of racks are
acceptable, including front-mount racks and four-post (telco) racks.
Table 16 on page 33 provides the details on rack size, clearance, and airflow requirements.
Table 16: Rack Requirements for the Services Gateway
SpecificationsRack Requirements
A 19 in. (48.3 cm) rack as defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and
Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310-D) published by the
Electronics Industry Association (http://www.eia.org).
Rack Size
•
The outer edges of the mounting brackets extend the width of either
chassis to 19 in. (48.3 cm).
•
The front of the chassis extends approximately 0.5 in. (1.27 cm) beyond
the mounting ears.
•
Maximum permissible ambient temperature when two devices are
placed side by side in a 19 in. rack is 40
ο
C.
Rack Requirements
•
The holes within each rack set are spaced at 1 U. The device can be
mounted in any rack that provides holes or hole patterns spaced at
1-U [1.75 in. (4.5 cm)] increments.
•
The mounting brackets and front-mount flanges used to attach the
chassis to a rack are designed to fasten to holes spaced at rack
distances of 1 U (1.75 in.).

earthquakes, bolt the rack to the floor. For maximum stability, also secure
the rack to ceiling brackets.
