Introduction

This manual describes the procedure to retrofit protocol
analysis 1U-sized systems for rack mounting at your site.

EIA 310-D 19-inch equipment rack. The rack mount kit
is included with some systems, or may be purchased
as an accessory for existing systems.

Two brackets, which are attached (as shown in this
document) to the side of the chassis, connect the
chassis to the mounting posts of the rack.

Some racks provide a power strip along the length
of one of the rear posts. If your rack has this feature,
the systems and the rack mounting brackets are
designed so that power can be supplied to the rear of the unit while network cables
and user control is available at the front (exposed) portion of the system.

Rack Mount Kits covered by this document include kits for the Sierra™ M124,

Installing the Rack Mount Brackets

Take the following steps to attach the two brackets to the system chassis:

Step 1: Place the system chassis on a sturdy surface.
Step 2: Using the 9/64” Allen Key provided, unscrew the two screws that

attach one of the front rubber bumpers to the system enclosure (see
illustration below). Keep these screws as they will be used to attach
the new rack mount brackets (see Steps 6-7).

Step 3: Repeat this procedure to remove the other front rubber bumper.
Step 4: Remove the two screws that attach one of the rear rubber bumpers to

the system enclosure (see illustration below):

Note: The SierraFC M164
is used as an example in
these illustrations. The steps
are identical for other 1U systems.

Step 5: Repeat this procedure to remove the other rear rubber bumper.
Step 6: Attach one of the brackets (shown below) to the left side of the system

chassis using the 9/64” Allen Key provided and four of the screws that
previously attached the rubber bumpers (these are the screws that
were removed in Steps 2-5). See illustration below.
