Rack Installation with Included Front Ear Brackets
You can use the front ear bracket kit to install your Firebox in a network rack. The included front ear brackets
attach to the side of the Firebox and can support it without the optional rack kit. You cannot use the included
front ear brackets and the rail kit together.
Use these steps to attach the front ear brackets and install the Firebox in a network rack. It could require two
people to safely complete these steps.
1. Locate the front ear brackets and screws.
2. Locate six rack screws (not included).
3. Use four of the screws provided with the front ear brackets to attach a bracket to the front of the
Firebox on one side.
4. Use the other four screws to attach the other front ear bracket to the other side of the Firebox.
5. Position the Firebox in the network rack so that the holes in the brackets align with the holes in the
front of the rack.
6. Use three rack screws to securely attach the brackets to the rack.
Rack Installation with Rack Rail Kit
You can use the optional rack rail kit to install your Firebox in a network rack.
To use the rack rail kit, do not attach the included front ear brackets.
Separate the inner rails from the outer rails
1. Pull out the inner rail as shown below.
2. Continue to slide the inner rail out until you hear a click.
3. Turn the rail over. Slide the white release tab on the inner rail away from the outer rail, and pull the
inner rail from the outer rail until they completely separate.
4. Repeat these steps to separate the second inner and outer rail.
