Mounting a BigIron RX-8 chassis in a rack
Follow the steps given below to mount a BigIron RX-8, chassis in a rack.
1. Determine the position of each chassis in the rack, for example, a chassis with the fewest
modules on top, a chassis with more modules than the top chassis in the middle, and a fully
populated chassis on the bottom.
2. Position two of the four screws for each chassis according to the spacings of the keyhole slots
on the mounting brackets as shown in Figure 24. Do not secure the screws completely; leave
approximately 1/4 inch of clearance between the back of the screw head and the rack.
