You might need to mark the installation location. Use this
procedure to perform this task.
To mark the installation location
and to install the nut clips into a rack without using the rack-mounting
template, complete the following steps:
- Determine where in the rack to place the
system. Install units in the lower part of the rack first. Place larger
and heavier units in the lower part of the rack. Record the EIA location.
- Face the front of the rack and work from
the right side. Place a self-adhesive dot at the middle hole of the
bottom EIA unit of the four EIA units that you are using for this
system unit. See (A) in Figure 1.
Note: The self-adhesive dots are used to help
you identify locations on the rack. If you do not have the dots, use
some other form of marking tool to help you identify hole locations
(for example, tape or a marker). You need to identify the marked hole
from both the front and back of the rack.
- Place another self-adhesive dot next to
the middle hole of the bottom EIA unit on the left side of the rack (A) as
shown in Figure 1.
- 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.

holes on the front and back of the rack frame
- Place a self-adhesive dot at the middle
hole of the bottom EIA unit (B) as shown in Figure 1.
- Place a self-adhesive dot at the bottom
hole of the next (higher) EIA unit (C) as shown in Figure 1.
- Mark the corresponding holes on the left
side of the rack.
