Securing the SSA to the Rear of the Rails
The optional procedure of securing the SSA to the rear of the SSA rails applies to all rack
installation scenarios (four‐post rack, 7‐inch two‐post rack, and 3‐inch two‐post rack). Securing
the rear of the SSA is recommended only if you are shipping the rack in which the SSA is installed.
If you plan to secure the left rear corner of the SSA, you must remove the screw from the left rear
corner of the SSA before installing the SSA in the rack. See Figure
