Installing the SRX5800 Services Gateway Mounting Hardware for
a Four-Post Rack or Cabinet
If you are installing the services gateway
in a front-mount four-post rack or cabinet, you must first install
the large mounting shelf, followed by the small mounting shelf.
Table 1 specifies the holes in
which you insert cage nuts and screws to install the mounting hardware
required in a four-post or cabinet rack (an X indicates
a mounting hole location). The hole distances are relative to one
of the standard “U” divisions on the rack. The bottom
of all mounting shelves is at 0.04 in. (0.02 U) above
a “U” division.
Table 1: Four-Post Rack or Cabinet Mounting Hole Locations
Hole | Distance Above “U” Division | Large Shelf | Small Shelf |
|---|
3 | 1.51 in. (3.8 cm) | 0.86 U | | X |
2 | 0.88 in. (2.2 cm) | 0.50 U | X | X |
1 | 0.25 in. (0.6 cm) | 0.14 U | | X |
To install the mounting shelves (see Figure 1):
- On the front rack rails, install cage nuts
in the holes specified in Table 1 for the large shelf.
- On the front of each front rack rail, partially
insert a mounting screw into the hole containing the lowest cage nut.
- Install the large shelf on the front rack rails.
Rest the bottom slot of each ear on a mounting screw.
- Partially insert a mounting screw into the top
hole in each ear of the large shelf.
- Tighten all the screws completely.
- On the rear rack rails, install cage nuts in the
holes specified in Table 1 for the small shelf.
- On the back of each rear rack rail, partially insert
a mounting screw into the hole containing the lowest cage nut.
- Install the small shelf on the back rack rails.
Rest the bottom slot of each ear on a mounting screw. The small shelf
installs on the back of the rear rails, extending toward the center
of the rack. The bottom of the small shelf should align with the bottom
of the large shelf.
- Partially insert screws into the open holes in
the ears of the small shelf.
- Tighten all the screws completely.
