Use the following instructions to install a device in a 19-in. (48.3 cm) EIA rack using the 1U, 1.5U, and 2U Universal Kit for Four-Post Racks (XBR-R000295).
Observe the following considerations when mounting this device:
- The device can be installed so that the port side is either flush with the front posts or recessed with the nonport side flush with the rear posts. A recessed position allows a more gradual bend in the fiber-optic cables connected to the device and less interference in the aisle at the front of the rack.
- Use Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard racks. Provide space in a 19-in. (48.3 cm) EIA rack, as required for the device, with a minimum distance of 24 in. (60.96 cm) and a maximum distance of 32 in. (81.28 cm) between the front and back posts.
- Two people are required to install the device in a rack. One person should hold the device, while the other secures the device in the rack.
- Before mounting your device, review any specific installation and facility requirements in this guide.
