Installing the SRX240 Services Gateway
You can front-mount or center-mount the SRX240 Services Gateway in a rack.

To install the device in a rack:
- Position a mounting bracket on each side of
the chassis. You can position the brackets in:
- Front mount position as shown in Figure 1.
- Center mount position as shown in Figure 2.

Note: Positioning the brackets in the center offers greater stability.

- 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–3 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 device is level.
