CN3 Cabinet Preperation
Remove all (4) J-Hooks from CN3 cabinet by removing
(2) #12-24 screws per J-Hook as shown.
All four rails are fully adjustable. To change depth, loosen three (3) 5/16 x 3/4” mounting bolts per cabinet rail using a 1/2” socket
wrench and slide rails flush with cabinet posts. Retighten the mounting bolts to 14ft.-lbs. Proper torque ensures equipment rails are
bonded to the cabinet frame.

7.75”
CISCO NEXUS 7018 SWITCH CRADLE MUST BE mounted so that the shaded area shown below is kept clear to allow for proper fit of
all switch ducting to cabinet. See view below for Panduit-suggested cradle position (refer to Cisco for cradle installation instructions).
NOTE: If casters are installed on
N ET -A CCESS cabinet, SWITCH CRADLE MUST BE installed so that the bottom six (6) rack spaces are kept
clear to allow for proper fit of all switch ducting to cabinet, and that cabinet casters do not interfere with switch ducting (11.25” above bottom
edge of equipment rail).
Requirements for Switch Installation
Install switch cradle (Cisco p/n: N7K-
C7018-BSK=) so that slots of cradle
align with tapped holes of equipment
rails at 5th - 7th rack spaces (Bottom
of switch cradle mounting flange will
be positioned 7.75” above bottom
edge of equipment rail).
