In standard EIA and telco-style racks, the holes in each mounting post should
align with the holes in each rack-mounting flange on the router, as follows:
•
The pattern of holes at the top of the left and the right router mounting
flanges should match at least two holes in each of the two mounting posts.
•
The pattern of holes at the bottom of the left and the right router mounting
flanges should match at least two holes in each of the two mounting posts.
Thus, to properly secure the router to the mounting posts in a telco-style rack,
you should use a total of 8 screws—four per mounting flange.
Secure the router to the mounting posts using the screws provided in the
accessories box.
Attach an antistatic ESD wrist strap to your wrist; ensure that it makes good
contact with your skin.
Insert the equipment end of the wrist strap (the banana jack) into the ESD
connection socket near the lower left corner of the upper card cage. Figure 1-2
shows the location of this socket in the body of the router enclosure.
Select the top card from the antistatic mat. It is assumed that you will reinstall
the cards in the upper card cage in reverse order. That is, the top card that you
placed earlier on the antistatic mat should be the first card to be reinstalled in the
router (see Step 6 in the section entitled "Removing Cards from the Upper Card
Cage").
