Introduction
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 (XEN-R000295).
Observe the following when mounting this device:
• The device can be installed so that the port side is either ush with the front posts or recessed with the non-port side ush with
the rear posts. A recessed position allows a more gradual bend in the ber-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. (609.60 mm) and a maximum distance of 32 in. (812.80 mm) 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 while the other
secures the device in the rack.
• Before mounting your device, review any specic installation and facility requirements in the Hardware Installation Guide for the
device.
• Hardware devices illustrated in these procedures are only for reference and may not depict the device you are installing into the
rack.
Safety precautions
DANGER
Use safe lifting practices when moving the product.
DANGER
Mount the devices you install in a rack as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at the bottom and progressively place
lighter devices above.
CAUTION
Make sure the airow around the front, and back of the device is not
restricted.
