Mounting options
You can install the ExtremeRouting SLX 9850 device in the following ways:
• In a four-post EIA rack: You will need an XBR-SLX9850-4-4PRM-KIT four-post rack kit to install the device. This kit includes
options for 68.6-78.7 cm (27-31 in.) ush and recessed mounting.
• In a two-post telecommunications (Telco) rack: You will need an XBR-SLX9850-4-2PRM-KIT two-post rack kit to install the
device in a two-post Telco rack, ush and middle mounting.
NOTE
Review the Safety Precautions before mounting the device.
Mounting safety precautions
The following precautions
specically apply to mounting the device.
DANGER
Mount the devices you install in a rack as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at the bottom and progressively place
lighter devices above.
DANGER
Make sure the rack housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from becoming unstable or falling over.
DANGER
Do not attempt to lift the Extreme Networks chassis. It is extremely heavy. Use a mechanical lifting device to lift the
chassis. Four or more people are required to position the unpopulated chassis into the rack.
CAUTION
Make sure the airow around the front, and back of the device is not
restricted.
CAUTION
Do not use the port cover tabs to lift the module. They are not designed to support the weight of the module, which can fall
and be damaged.
