Install the Acme Packet 6400 into the Slide-Rail Assemblies

Use this procedure to install the Acme Packet 6400 chassis with mounting brackets into the slide-rail assemblies that are mounted to the rack.

Caution:

Personal Injury or Equipment Damage: This procedure requires a minimum of two people because of the weight of the Acme Packet 6400. Attempting this procedure alone could result in equipment damage or personal injury.

Caution:

Personal Injury or Equipment Damage: Always load equipment into a rack from the bottom up so that the rack does not become top-heavy and tip over. Extend the rack anti-tilt bar to prevent the rack from tipping during equipment installation.

  1. Push the slide-rails as far as possible into the slide-rail assemblies in the rack.
  2. Position the Acme Packet 6400 so that the back ends of the mounting brackets are aligned with the slide-rail assemblies that are mounted in the rack.
  3. Insert the mounting brackets into the slide-rails, and then push the Acme Packet 6400 into the rack until the mounting brackets are flush with the slide-rail stops (approximately 30 cm or 12 inches).
