2.2 Installing the Rails

There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may require a slightly different assembly
procedure. Do not use a two post "telco" type rack. This rail set fits a rack between 26.5"
and 36.4" deep.
The following is a basic guideline for installing the system into a rack with the rack mounting
hardware provided. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the
specific rack you are using.

Identifying the Rails

The chassis package includes two rail assemblies. Each assembly consists of three sections:
An inner rail that secures directly to the chassis, an outer rail that secures to the rack, and
a middle rail which extends from the outer rail. These assemblies are specifically designed
for the left and right side of the chassis and labeled.
