Rack-mounting
If you have either a round-holed or square-holed rack, install cage nuts or clip nuts to the
desired positions on the rack posts.
The instructions below are based on the installation to a 4-post equipment rack.
IMPORTANT:
1. There is a pair of ears and handles in the accessory box. If you need to install them, please
refer to the drawing below to fasten them to the front-right and front-left mounting ears using
the provided screws.
