Marking the location without a rack-mounting template

You might need to mark the location without a template. Use the procedure in this section to perform this task.

1. Determine where in the rack to place the system. Record the EIA location.
2. Note the following information:
   • Each EIA unit consists of three holes.
   • These systems are two EIA units high.
3. Facing the front of the rack and working from the right side, place a supplied self-adhesive dot next to the middle hole of the bottom EIA unit that you selected.
   Note: The self-adhesive dots are used to aid in identifying locations on the rack. If do not have any of the dots, use some other form of marking tool to aid you in identifying hole locations (for example, tape, a marker, or pencil).
4. Place another self-adhesive dot next to the bottom hole of the above EIA unit. There will be one hole between the dots.
5. Repeat steps 3 through 4 for the corresponding holes located on the left side of the rack.
6. Go to the back of the rack. On the right side, find the EIA unit that corresponds to the bottom EIA unit marked on the front of the rack.
7. Place a self-adhesive dot at the middle hole of the bottom EIA unit.
8. Place a self-adhesive dot at the bottom hole of the next (above) EIA unit.
9. Mark the corresponding holes on the left side of the rack.
