Installing the Default Cable-Management Bracket on a Cisco uBR7246VXR Router (Optional)
If you are not using the NPE-G1 cable-management bracket, you can alternatively use two
cable-management bracket configurations for the Cisco uBR7246VXR router. In the first configuration,
for a 4-post rack, the rack-mount brackets are installed at the rear of the chassis and the
cable-management bracket is installed at the right front of the chassis. (See
Figure
7-22.) You must
install both sets of brackets before you install the chassis in the rack.
In the second configuration, for a telco-type rack, the rack-mount brackets are installed at the middle of
the chassis and the cable-management bracket is installed at the right front of the chassis. (See
Figure
7-23.) You must install both sets of brackets before you install the chassis in the rack.
The cable-management bracket must be installed on the right side of the chassis when viewed from the
Note
front.
