Measure the space between the inner edges of the left front and right front mounting flanges on the equipment rack. The
space must be at least 17.7 inches (45 cm) to accommodate the chassis that is 17.25 inches (43.8 cm) wide and fits between
the mounting posts on the rack.

Attaching Front Rack-Mount Brackets

Before you begin
Before installing the chassis in the rack, you must install the rack-mount brackets on each side of the chassis.
Determine where in the rack you want the chassis to be mounted. If you are mounting more than one chassis
in the rack, then start from the bottom up or the center of the rack. The following figure shows the brackets
attached to the chassis. Depending on the bracket holes you use, the chassis may protrude in the rack
Note The cable-management brackets are attached to the chassis after you install the chassis rack-mount brackets
on the chassis and mount the chassis in the rack
Step 1
Locate the threaded holes on the side of the chassis. Ensure that you hold the front rack-mount bracket with the ear and
holes facing outward and towards the front of the chassis. The following figure shows where to attach the front rack-mount
brackets to the Cisco Catalyst 9800-80 Wireless Controller.
