Installing Cisco x90 Series Content Security Appliances In a Rack
c. Press the securing plate release button, marked “PUSH.” The spring-loaded securing plate closes to
lock the pegs in place.
d. Adjust the slide-rail length, and then push the rear mounting pegs into the corresponding rear
rack-post holes. The slide rail must be level front-to-rear.
The rear mounting pegs enter the rear rack-post holes from the inside of the rack post.
e. Attach the second slide-rail assembly to the opposite side of the rack. Ensure that the two slide-rail
assemblies are at the same height with each other and are level front-to-back.
f. Pull the inner slide rails on each assembly out toward the rack front until they hit the internal stops
and lock in place.
Step 4 Insert the appliance into the slide rails:
Caution The appliance can weigh up to 67 pounds (59 kilograms) when fully loaded with components. We
recommend that you use a minimum of two people or a mechanical lift when lifting the appliance.
Attempting this procedure alone could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
a. Align the rear of the inner rails that are attached to the appliance sides with the front ends of the
empty slide rails on the rack.
b. Push the inner rails into the slide rails on the rack until they stop at the internal stops.
c. Slide the release clip toward the rear on both inner rails (Figure 1-4 and Figure 1-5), and then
continue pushing the appliance into the rack until its front slam latches engage with the rack posts.
