SRX5800 Services Gateway Rack-Mounting Hardware
The rack-mounting hardware for the SRX5800 Services Gateway includes:
The large mounting shelf for mounting in four-post racks, cabinets, and open-frame racks
The small mounting shelf for front-mounting in a four-post rack or cabinet
Front-mounting flanges on the front of the chassis for front-mounting in a four-post rack or cabinet
Two center-mounting brackets attached to the center of the chassis for center-mounting in an open-frame
rack. For an open-frame rack, center-mounting is preferable because of the more even distribution of
weight.
SRX5800 Services Gateway Rack Size and Strength Requirements
The size, strength, and location of the rack must accommodate the services gateway's weight and external
dimensions. The location of the rack must allow for the clearance requirements specified in
Requirements for SRX5800 Services Gateway Airflow and Hardware Maintenance" on page
The chassis is 17.37 in. (44.11 cm) wide. The services gateway is designed for installation in a standard
19-in. rack, as defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310-D)
published by the Electronics Industry Association (http://www.eia.org). The spacing of the holes between
the left and right front-mounting flanges and center-mounting brackets is 18.31 in (465 mm) apart. However,
the inside spacing between the rack rails must allow sufficient space for the width of the chassis.
