Attaching the Crossrail Supports to the Rack

When mounting in a rack with four posts (front and back) the two crossrail supports are mounted
one on each side of the rack. The SCE 1000 then slides into these crossrails, which support the
weight of the unit.
Cisco recommends that you allow at least 1 or 2 inches (2.54 or 5.08 cm) of vertical clearance between
Note
the SCE 1000 and any equipment directly above and below it.
To install the crossrail supports on a four-post rack (both front and back posts), complete the
following steps:
Step 1 Assemble the two crossrail supports as illustrated below. Use three screws for each crossrail
assembly.
Make sure that they are oriented so that both crossrails will support the SCE 1000 when they are
attached to the rack.
