Installing 2U equipment into a two-post rack

You can install 2U equipment in a two-post rack using a flush-mount or mid-mount installation. You use the two-post telco tray
kit for both installation types; for mid-mount installations you also use the mid-mount telco kit.

About this task

Your installation kit includes the following parts:
Two-post telco tray kit
One two-piece tray with left and right halves that attach to the back of the rack to support the back of the equipment chassis.
Mid-mount telco kit
Two mid-mount mounting brackets
Six M3.5 screws and star washers that attach the brackets to the sides of the shelf
Bagged screws in the following sizes for mounting the two-piece telco tray and mid-mount brackets to the rack:
16 M5-0.8 x 20 pilot screws
16 M6-1 x 20 pilot screws
16 10-32 x.75 pilot screws
16 12-24 x.75 pilot screws

Steps

1. Determine which holes in the two-post rack you want to use for the telco tray.
Use the rack alignment guide tool to ensure that you are using the same holes on both posts of the rack.
2. Align the screw holes on the left half of the telco tray with the screw holes on the left post, and then secure the telco tray to
the post with two mounting screws.
Use mounting screws that match the threading of the rack.
