Review the contents of the package and ensure that all necessary items are included.

Rack Mounting
Mount and attach the shelf to the standard 19-inch rack using appropriate rack mounting screws (not included). The rack should be appropriately earth grounded before powering the attached modules. Use NEBS earth grounding posts to secure a grounding lug from the rack to the shelf.

Remove any rubber feet before installing the module/chassis to the shelf. Embedded cable tie-down slots secure the power cord(s) and data cable(s) to the shelf (cable ties not included). Grounding screws are available to attach an earth ground wire between the module and the shelf.
