The N1200-320 4Gb Network Storage Router can be
placed on a desktop or installed in a standard 19-inch
rack. When considering a location, make sure the
airflow area surrounding the front and back of the
router is unobstructed.

a. Separate the inner rail from the outer rail by placing
a thumb over the circular hole at the front-end of the
inner rail.
b. Extend the inner rail out from the outer rail until it
locks into place.
c. Press the spring latch on the back of the inner rails
to release the lock.
d. While holding down the spring latch, extend the
inner rail until the two rails separate.
Repeat this Step to separate the other set of rails.
Attach the rear extension
bracket
a. Loosen the screw on the rear extension bracket of the
outer rail assembly.
b. While holding the outer rail assembly level, extend
the rear extension bracket to the inside of the rear of
the rack.
c. Attach the rear extension bracket to the rear of the
rack using two of the 10-32x 6 Phillips screws.
d. With the outer rail assembly in place, tighten the
screw that connects the rear extension bracket to the
outer rail. Repeat this Step to attach the remaining
outer rail assembly to the other side of the rack.

Determine the correct rack location.
a. Align the three screw holes on the front of the outer
rail assembly with the front of the rack. All three
holes must be aligned exactly.
b. With the outer rail assembly flush against the inside
front of the rack, insert two 10-32 x 6 Phillips
screws, and tighten. Do not insert a screw in the
center hole of the bracket.
NOTE: The size of the router and its rail
assembly is 1U.
Attach the rails to the router

Inner Rail
a. With the spring latch facing away from the router
and the circular hole facing the front of the router,
align the front-most screw hole on the router with the
center screw hole on the rail. Using this alignment,
two screw holes will be aligned and the rail will
extend out from the front of the router approximately
eight inches.
b. Secure the rail to the router using two #6-32x 312
Phillips screws. Repeat this Step to attach the inner
rail to the other side of the router.

Install the router into the rack
a. Move the ball-bearing slide on each of the outer
rails towards the front of the rack.
b. From the front of the rack, with the front side of the
router facing out, align the inner and the outer rails
and slide the inner rail into the outer rail.
c. When the rails lock in place, press in the spring
latches on each of the inner rails and push the router
into the rack.
