Mounting the Optical ILA

To mount the optical ILA on two posts or four posts in a rack by using the provided mounting kit (see
Figure 19 on page 57):
NOTE: The 19-inch brackets are attached to the optical ILA when they are shipped. If you want
to attach the 23-inch brackets, unscrew the 19-inch brackets from the chassis, and attach the
23-inch brackets by using the same screws.
1. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point.
NOTE: Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and
maintenance, and secure it to the building structure. If you are mounting multiple units in the
rack, mount the heaviest unit at the bottom and mount the others from bottom to top in
order of decreasing weight. AC-powered optical ILA version weighs 11.7 lb (5.30 kg) while
the DC-powered optical ILA weighs 11.8 lb (5.35 kg).
2. Position the optical ILA in such a manner that the FRUs are next to the hot aisle.
3. Use four mounting screws (and cage nuts and washers if your rack requires them) to attach the brackets
to the rack.
