3.1.5 Attaching the slide rails to the rack

1) Identify the rack attachment position for the slide rails.
2) Install cage nuts (user-supplied) in the mounting holes in the rack posts.
3) Align the screw holes in one slide rail with the cage nuts in the rack post on one side,
and use screws (user supplied) to attach the slide rail to the rack, as shown in Figure
3-10.
4) Repeat the preceding step to attach the other slide rail to the rack post on the other
side. Keep the two slide rails at the same height so the slide rails can attach into the
chassis rails.

3.1.6 Mounting the switch in the rack

This task requires two people.
To mount the switch in the rack:
1) Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is
well grounded.
2) Verify that the mounting brackets and chassis rails have been securely attached to the
switch chassis.
3) Verify that the slide rails have been correctly attached to the rear rack posts.
4) Install cage nuts (user-supplied) to the front rack posts and make sure they are at the
same level as the slide rails.
