Front-and-Rear-Mounting the JSA Appliance Recessed in a Rack
This option provides additional front clearance in the equipment rack. It is used for a larger chassis, like
the JSA7500 appliance, that requires additional support when mounted on the rack-mount system.
To mount the appliance using this option:
1. Remove the rear screws on each side of the system's front rails and the two small screws toward the
front of the chassis.
2. Loosen the side-rail screws of the chassis and slide the front rails of the system backward, as far as
they will move.
3. Tighten the side-rail screws. Insert the two small screws in the recessed holes on the front rails and
tighten.
4. Slide the rear-mount rail brackets into the backs of the front rails on either side of the chassis and
align with your rear equipment rack posts. Secure the rear-mount rail brackets to your equipment
rack with two rack mount screws each. See
Figure 9: Front-Rear-Mounting Recessed in Rack
5. Insert locking screws on the sides of the rear-mount brackets to secure the front and rear mounting
brackets in place.
6. Verify that the mounting screws on one side of the rack are aligned with the mounting screws on the
opposite side and that the appliance is level.
The recessed position allows network and console cables to be routed through the sides of the
equipment rack and through the holes of the recessed front rails on either side of the unit. This enables
easy cable routing on the racks with limited cable management.
