Replacing the Rack Doors

Refer to the procedures for replacing doors in the documentation provided with your rack
cabinet.

CAUTION: Because of the size and weight of the rack cabinet doors, never

attempt to remove or install them by yourself.

This completes the rack installation of your system in a four-post rack cabinet.

Two-Post Rack Installation

The two-post rack kit is used to install a system in a two-post, open-frame relay rack, such as
those found in telecommunications equipment facilities. Both 3-inch and 6-inch wide two-
post racks with universal hole spacing or wide hole spacing are accommodated. You can
install this kit in a center-mount or a flush-mount configuration. The two-post kit
incorporates slide assemblies which enable the system to be pulled out for servicing.

You must properly secure the two-post, open frame relay rack to the floor, the ceiling or
upper wall, and where applicable, to adjacent racks, using floor and wall fasteners and
bracing specified or approved by the rack manufacturer or by industry standards. See the
two-post, open-frame relay rack manufacturer’s installation documentation for
precautionary warnings before attempting this installation.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to install the system into a two-post, open-frame relay

rack that has not been securely anchored in place. Damage to the system and
personal injury to yourself and to others may result.

See "Safety Instructions" at the front of this document for additional safety information
regarding rack installation.

Recommended Tools and Supplies

You need the following tools and supplies to install the system in a two-post relay rack:

#2 Phillips screwdriver

11/32-inch wrench or nut driver (if changing bracket to flush-mount configuration)

Masking tape or felt-tip pen to mark the mounting holes
