Center-Mount Brackets

OL-11636-01
Installing the Cisco 12404 router in a rack is presented in this section. It is
recommended that two people perform the following steps, to mount the chassis
in a rack.
This procedure assumes you have unpacked the router using the "Cisco 12404
router Unpacking Instructions" document number 78-13618-01, posted on the
outside of the shipping container.
Move the router as close to the installation location as possible without interfering
with the installation process
One person should grasp the front and the other person grasp the rear of the
chassis, bending your knees as you lift the chassis off of the pallet and position
the chassis in the rack.
If a third person is needed, have that person install the screws to secure the chassis
to the rack.
Look at the bottom mounting holes on the chassis. Align one of the holes with a
mounting hole in the rack.
Install one of the mounting screws provided.
On the other side of the chassis adjust the position of the chassis so that the same
mounting hole in the bottom group of mounting holes is aligned with a hole in the
rack.
Install one of the mounting screws provided.
Repeat Step 4 through Step 8 for additional mounting holes.
Use a screwdriver to tighten all the screws.
If you plan to install the Cisco 12404 router in the center-mount position, you
must first install the center-mount brackets on the equipment rack rails, then
secure the chassis to the center-mount brackets.
