1-4 Rack Installation Guide
Attaching the Brackets
1. Measure the rack to determine if the two-post relay rack is 3 inches wide or
6 inches wide. The rearmost bracket on each side can be positioned for either 3-
or 6-inch wide racks.
2. Align a bracket on the right side of the chassis, oriented so that the flange that
fastens to the two-post rack is facing backward. The two top mounting holes
must be aligned with the fourth and fifth holes on the side of the system chassis
(see Figure 1-3).
3. Secure the front bracket to the system chassis using two 10-32 x 0.25-inch
screws (see Figure 1-3).
Repeat this step to install the remaining front bracket to the other side of the
system chassis.
