Installing the SRX3600 Services Gateway in a Rack or Cabinet Using a Mechanical Lift
- Ensure the rack is in its permanent location and is secured to the building. Ensure that the installation site allows adequate clearance for both airflow and maintenance. For details, see Site Preparation Checklist for the SRX3600 Services Gateway.
- Load the device onto the lift, making
sure it rests securely on the lift platform (see Figure 1).
Figure 1: Load the Device onto the Lift
- Using the lift, position the device in the rack:
- For two-post rack mounting, align the bottom hole in each mounting bracket with a hole in each rack rail.
- For four-post rack or cabinet mounting, position the device so that the bottom rear edge of the chassis rests on the support shelf you installed earlier, as described in Installing the Mounting Hardware for the SRX3600 Services Gateway.
- Install a mounting screw into each of the
two aligned holes, as shown in Figure 2 (two-post rack) or Figure 3 (four-post rack). Use a number-2 Phillips screwdriver to
tighten the screws.

Figure 3: Installing the Device in a Four-Post Rack
- Install the remaining screws in each mounting bracket.
- Move the lift away from the rack.
- Visually inspect the alignment of the device. If the device is installed properly in the rack, all the mounting screws on one side of the rack should be aligned with the mounting screws on the opposite side and the device should be level.
