Figure 15: Attaching Mounting Brackets to Install a J2300 Services Router in a Rack
Installing the J4300 or J6300 Services Router
You can front-mount the J4300 Services Router or J6300 Services Router in a rack.
The router is shipped with mounting brackets installed. Many types of racks are
acceptable, including four-post (telco) racks, enclosed cabinets, and open-frame
racks. For more information about the type of rack or cabinet the J-series router
can be installed into, see "Rack Requirements" on page 542.
NOTE: If you are installing multiple routers in one rack, install the lowest one
first and proceed upward in the rack.
CAUTION: The chassis weighs between 18 lb (8.2 kg) and 24 lb (10.9 kg). Installing
it into the rack requires one person to lift and a second person to secure the
mounting screws.
To install the J4300 router or J6300 router into a rack:

Installing the J4300 or J6300 Services Router
Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to install the screws that secure the

Have one person grasp the sides of the router, lift the router, and position
it in the rack.
Align the bottom hole in each mounting bracket with a hole in each rack
rail, making sure the chassis is level.
Have a second person install a mounting screw into each of the two aligned
holes. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws.
Install the second screw in each mounting bracket.
Verify that the mounting screws on one side of the rack are aligned with the
mounting screws on the opposite side and that the router is level.
