Center-mounting flanges are attached to each side of the Acme Packet 6100.
These mounting flanges are reversible, and are not mated to a specific side of

hardware for attaching the rack flanges to the chassis, you must obtain and use
the appropriate hardware recommended by the equipment rack manufacturer
for mounting the system in the rack.
