Removing the System From the Rack To remove the system from the rack, perform the following procedure: NOTE: You do not need to remove the optional front bezel to install or remove the system from the rack. 1 Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet. 2 Disengage the both thumbscrews on the front panel of the chassis. 3 On either side of the system, locate the back release latches. 4 Pull the system out of the rack until it stops, and then push down on both release levers to actuate the side-rail safety catches (see Figure 1-8). 5 Pull the system completely out of the rack. Replacing the Rack Doors See the procedures for replacing doors in the documentation provided with your rack. 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 7.62-cm or 15.24-cm (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. You must properly secure the two-post 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 rack manufacturer's documentation for 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" for additional safety information regarding rack installation. 18 Rack Installation Guide

Rack Installation Guide
Removing the System From the Rack
To remove the system from the rack, perform the following procedure:
NOTE:
You do not need to remove the optional front bezel to install or remove the system from the rack.
1
Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical
outlet.
2
Disengage the both thumbscrews on the front panel of the chassis.
3
On either side of the system, locate the back release latches.
4
Pull the system out of the rack until it stops, and then push down on both release levers
to actuate the side-rail safety catches (see Figure 1-8).
5
Pull the system completely out of the rack.
Replacing the Rack Doors
See the procedures for replacing doors in the documentation provided with your rack.
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 7.62-cm or 15.24-cm (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.
You must properly secure the two-post 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 rack manufacturer's
documentation for 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" for additional safety information regarding rack installation.
