    1 = Flush mount configuration 3 = Rack-appropriate screws or fasteners (2)
    2 = Mid-mount configuration 4 = Black 10-32 screws (2)
  2. For a flush mount rail assembly configuration, secure each side of the chassis using a user-supplied screw or fastener appropriate to your rack.
  3. For a mid-mount rail assembly configuration, secure each side of the chassis using a black, 10-32 screw that comes with the rack mount kit.
    These screws are screwed into the cage nut installed in the square rail ear opening as described in step 3.
