•
One pair of front mounting rails (provided)
•
One pair of rear mounting blades (provided)
•
Sixteen screws to secure the mounting rails and mounting blades to the chassis (provided)
•
Eight screws to secure the chassis and mounting blades to the rack (not provided)
•
Screwdriver appropriate for your rack mounting screws (not provided)
•
Two power cords with plugs appropriate for your geographical location (provided)
•
RJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9 serial port adapter (provided)
•
Management host, such as a PC laptop, with a serial port (not provided)
•
(Optional) Grounding cable kit with bracket, lug, and three screws. To install the grounding cable, see the PTX10001

Part 1: Mount the Device
The PTX10001 can be mounted in a 19-inch four-post rack.
To mount the device in a standard 19-inch rack:
1. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point.
NOTE: If you are mounting multiple unitsin the rack, mount the heaviest unit at the bottom and mount the others
from bottom to top in order of decreasing weight. The PTX10001-20C weighs approximately 26.8 lbs (12.2 kg).
Installing the router in a rack requires two people to lift the device and secure it to the rack.
2. Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearancefor airflow and maintenance, and secure it to the building
structure.
3. Determine whether the end with field replaceable units (FRUs) or the ports are to be placed at the front of the rack.
4. Align the holes in the mounting-rail with the holes on the side of the chassis.

PTX10001-20C Quick Start
5. Attach the mounting-rail to the router using eight mounting screws.
6. Repeat Step 4 and Step 5 on the opposite side of the router.
7. Have one person grasp both sides of the router, lift it, and position it in the rack so that the front bracket is aligned with the
rack holes.
8. Have a second person secure the front of the router to the rack using four mounting screws (and cage nuts and washers if
your rack requires them.) Tighten the screws.
9. Continue to support the router while sliding the rear mounting-blades into the channel of the side mounting-rails and securing
the blades to the rack. Use the four mounting screws (and cage nuts and washers if your rack requires them) to attach each
blade to the rack. Tighten the screws.
10. Ensure that the router chassis is level by verifying that all the screws on the front of the rack are aligned with the screws at the
back of the rack.
11. Attach a grounding cable to earth ground and then attach it to the chassis grounding points (on the side of the chassis).
Part 2: Connect Power to an AC-Powered Router
NOTE: For instructions on connecting DC power, see the installation instructions in the PTX10001 documentation
at https://www.juniper.net/documentation/product/en_US/ptx10001.
To connect power to a PTX10001 with AC power supplies:
1. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the OFF (0) position.
2. Insert the coupler end of the power cord into the AC power cord inlet on the AC power supply faceplate.
3. Push the power cord retainer onto the power cord.
4. Insert the power cord plug into the power source outlet.
