Brocade Communications Systems FastIron FGS624P Hardware Installation Manual page 41

The Brocade device is compatible with two rack mount kits; a kit with short mounting brackets that ships with the device, and a kit with
long mounting brackets (19 inches), which you can order separately from Brocade (part number 70166-000). Use the long mounting
brackets to prevent the Brocade device from sagging when installed in a non-compliant (non-Telco) equipment rack.
In addition to the rack mount kit, you will need the following tools for installation:
•
#2 Phillips-head screwdriver
•
Four 12-24 screws to mount the Brocade device to the rack.
Make sure the rack or cabinet housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from becoming
unstable or falling over.
Mount the devices in the lowest position possible in a rack or cabinet. Place the heaviest device at the
bottom and progressively place lighter devices above.
To install the rack mount brackets and mount the device in a rack, do the following:
1. Remove the rack mount kit from the shipping carton. The kit contains two mounting brackets.
2. Align the brackets with the screw holes on the sides of the device, then use 12-24 screws to attach the mounting brackets.
Refer to the appropriate illustration, depending on which brackets you are installing:
•
Figure 11 shows how to attach the short mounting brackets.
•
Figure 12 shows how to attach the long mounting brackets.
