Rack mount kit contains the rack mounting brackets for 19 inch rack. To install the chassis in a 23-inch rack
or an ETSI rack, you need adapter plates to accommodate the 19 inch rack mount brackets. The adapter plates
for installing in a 23-inch rack or an ETSI rack are included in the accessory kit for the NCS-57C3-MOD
chassis.
Note
The NCS-57C1 router can be installed either on the 19-inch rack or 23-inch rack. To install this router on the
23-inch rack, you must mount the extension brackets on the 23-inch rack post.
Note
Rack Mount the Chassis
The chassis can be mounted on a 2-post or a 4-post rack.

Step 1 Install the rack-mount brackets to the router as follows:
a) Determine which end of the chassis is to be located in the cold aisle as follows:
• If the router has port-side intake modules (fan modules with burgundy coloring), position the router so that the
ports are in the cold aisle.
• If the router has port-side exhaust modules (fan modules with blue coloring), position the router so that the fan
and power supply modules are in the cold aisle.
b) Position a rack-mount bracket on the side of the chassis with its four holes that are aligned to four of the screw holes
on the side of the chassis, and then use four M4 counter sink screws to attach the bracket to the chassis.
Remove the grounding cover label and align the grounding cover plate with the grounding holes in the
chassis and attach the rack mount brackets.
Note
You can align four of the holes in the rack-mount bracket to four of the screw holes on the front side of
chassis or four of the screw holes on the rear side of the chassis. The holes that you use depend on which
side your chassis need to be put in the cold aisle.

c) Repeat Step 1b with the other rack-mount bracket on the other side of the router.
Step 2 Install the two rack-mount guides on the chassis as follows:
a) Position a rack-mount guides on the side of the chassis with its two holes aligned to the two screw holes on the side
of the chassis, and then use two M4 screws to attach the guides to the chassis.
b) Repeat with the other rack-mount guides on the other side of the router.
Step 3 Install the slider rails to the rack as follows:
a) Position the slider rails at the desired levels on the back side of the rack and use two 12-24 screws or two 10-32
screws, depending on the rack thread type, to attach the rails to the rack.
For racks with square holes, you might need to position a 12-24 cage nut behind each mounting hole in a
slider rail before using a 12-24 screw.
Note
b) Repeat with the other slider rail on the other side of the rack.
c) Use a tape measure and level to verify that the rails are at the same height and horizontal.
Step 4 Insert the router into the rack and attach it as follows:
a) Holding the router with both hands, position the back of the router between the front posts of the rack.
b) Align the two rack-mount guides on either side of the router with the slider rails installed in the rack. Slide the
rack-mount guides onto the slider rails, and then gently slide the router all the way into the rack.
If the router does not slide easily, try realigning the rack-mount guides on the slider rails.
Note
c) Holding the chassis level, insert two screws (12-24 or 10-32, depending on the rack type) through the holes in each
of the rack-mount brackets and into the cage nuts or threaded holes in the rack-mounting rail.
d) Tighten the 10-32 screws to 20 in-lb (2.26 N.m) or tighten the 12-24 screws to 30 in-lb (3.39 N.m).
