Required Tools and Equipment

Before you begin the rack-mount installation, you must read and understand the
information in the

“Rack-Mounting Guidelines” section on page 2-6

and have the

following tools and equipment:

ESD-preventive wrist strap

Number 1 and number 2 Phillips screwdrivers

1/4-inch (6.35-mm) and 3/16-inch (4.5-mm) flat-blade screwdrivers

Tape measure

Level (optional)

A minimum of 10 slotted binderhead screws (usually provided with the rack)
to secure the chassis to the mounting flanges (also called rails) in the rack.
Five screws should be installed on each side of the chassis.

3/8-inch (10-mm) nutdriver (for systems equipped with the DC-input power
shelf)

9/16-inch (14-mm) wrench (for chassis hold-down bolts and pallet hold-down
bracket bolts)

3/4-inch (19-mm) socket and ratchet wrench

Unpacking and Positioning the Router

Follow the unpacking instructions shipped with the router and use a safety hand
truck to move the router to the location where it is being installed in a rack.

Save the packaging materials in case the router needs repackaging or shipping.

Removing Components Before Installing the Chassis

The router is designed to be lifted by two persons into a rack. To reduce the weight
of the system, you can remove some of the components before attempting to lift
it into the rack.
