The rack should cause a maximum back pressure of 5 pascals (0.5 mm water gauge).
Before you begin, ensure that you have adequate clearance in front of the rack for installing the rails.

Rackmount rail kit

Various sets of rack mounting rails are available for use in 19-inch rack cabinets. These rails have been designed and
tested for the maximum enclosure weight, and to make sure that multiple enclosures may be installed without loss of
space within the rack. Use of other mounting hardware may cause some loss of rack space.
Contact your supplier to make sure suitable mounting rails are available for the rack you are to use.
