loosely fasten the assembly to the chassis with four flat-head M4x10 screws as shown in
Attaching a Lower Cable Management Assembly to a Rack-Mount Bracket, on page 18
2.
Repeat Step 1 to attach a lower cable management assembly to the right side of the chassis.
3.
Attach an upper cable management assembly (800-31342-01) onto the two hooks that protrude from
the upper half of the left rack-mount bracket that is attached to the Cisco Nexus 7018 switch chassis,
and loosely fasten the assembly to the chassis with four flat-head M4x10 screws as shown in
Attaching a Left Cable Management Assembly to a Rack-Mount Bracket, on page 19
.
4.
Repeat Step 3 to attach an upper cable management assembly to the upper right side of the chassis.
When completed, the chassis will appear as shown in
Figure 10: Cable Management Assemblies Attached
to the Rack-Mount Brackets, on page 20
5.
Place the top hood (800-31269-01) on top of the two upper cable management assemblies that are
already installed. Make sure that the side of the top hood that is closest to the chassis has two alignment
pins that align with the alignment holes in the chassis as shown in
Figure 11: Positioning the Top Hood
with the Upper Cable Management Assemblies and the Switch Chassis, on page 21
. Push the top hood
toward the chassis so that its alignment pins enter the alignment holes and the top hood rests against
the chassis.
6.
Use four M4x8 pan-head screws to loosely fasten the top hood to the chassis as shown in
Fastening the Top Hood to the Chassis and Cable Management Assemblies, on page 22
.
7.
Use four M4x8 pan-head screws to loosely fasten the top hood to each of the two upper cable management
assemblies as shown in
Figure 11: Positioning the Top Hood with the Upper Cable Management
Assemblies and the Switch Chassis, on page 21
8.
Tighten each of the four screws that fasten the top hood to the chassis to 11 to 15 in-lb (1.2 to 1.7 N·m).
9.
Tighten each of the four screws that fasten the top hood to the cable management assemblies to 11 to
15 in-lb (1.2 to 1.7 N·m).
10.
Tighten each of the 18 screws that fasten the upper and lower cable management assemblies to the
rack-mount brackets to 11 to 15 in-lb (1.2 to 1.7 N·m).
