The adapter kit includes two adapter brackets (and various hardware) for attaching the two muxes side by side.
Refer to Figure 3-4 and follow these steps:
1. Remove the cover from the mux that will be on the right-hand side of the rack.
2. Position one of the two U brackets supplied in the kit on the slots inside of the inner left-hand wall, and
align its holes with the holes on the wall.
3. Insert the flat washers over one pair of long screws and screw them through the U bracket into the holes
on the wall.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 above for the other U bracket.
5. Hold the second mux close to the left wall of the opened rack, and using a screwdriver, drive the four
screws until their ends emerge from the left wall and engage the holes on the right side of the second
mux. Tighten each screw one turn at a time—do not tighten one screw completely before moving on to
the next. Continue to tighten the screws until their heads rest against the U bracket and the two muxes are
in contact.
6. Reinstall the cover over the right-side mux.
7. Fasten one adapter bracket (7A) to the side wall of each mux. Use the four short screws (7B) and flat
washers (7C) supplied in the kit.
8. You can now fasten the assembled units to the side rails of the 19" rack with four screws (not included
in the kit), two on each side.
