Install The Acx5096 Router In The Rack - Juniper ACX5096 Quick Start Manual

Install the ACX5096 Router in the Rack

The router can be installed horizontally in a rack or cabinet.
Two people are required to install the ACX5096 router. The chassis weighs approximately 32.5 lb (14.74
kg). To install the chassis:
1. Ensure that the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. Ensure that the installation
site allows adequate clearance for both airflow and maintenance.
2. Position the router in front of the rack or cabinet.
3. Have one person grasp both sides of the router, lift it, and position it in the rack so that the front bracket
is aligned with the rack holes.
4. Have a second person secure the front of the router to the rack by using four mounting screws (and
cage nuts and washers if your rack requires them). Tighten the screws.
5. Continue to support the router while sliding the rear mounting-blades into the channel of the side
mounting-rails and securing the blades to the rack. Use the four mounting screws (and cage nuts and
washers if your rack requires them) to attach each blade to the rack. Tighten the screws.
6. Ensure that the router chassis is level by verifying that all the screws on the front of the rack are aligned
with the screws at the back of the rack. See

7. Attach a grounding cable to earth ground and then attach it to the chassis grounding points.
