This section provides information for rack-mounting the router.
Attach the Rack-Mount Brackets—Chassis Front-Mounted
Figure 1 Attaching the Rack-Mount Brackets to the Front of the Chassis
To install the rack-mount brackets on a Cisco 7201 router for a front rack-mount configuration, complete the following steps:
Step 1 Locate the threaded holes in the front sides of the chassis.
Step 2
Align the rack-mount bracket to the rack-mount bracket holes on the side of the router.
Step 3
Remove any existing cover screws from the front sides of the chassis that align with the rack-mount bracket holes and
then realign the bracket. (You should have to remove one cover screw from each side of the chassis.)
Step 4 Insert and tighten two 6-32 x 0.25-in. screws in the two holes nearest the front of the chassis.
Step 5 Insert and tighten the longer M3 x 8-mm screw in the hole nearest the rear of the chassis. (This screw replaces the cover
screw that you removed in Step 3.)
Step 6 Repeat Step 1 through Step 5 on the other side of the router.
To install the cable-management bracket, see page 7. If you are not installing the cable-management bracket, skip to the
“Two-Post Rack Installation” section on page 8 or the “Four-Post Rack Installation” section on page 9 for rack-mount
instructions.
