2. Secure the bracket to the gateway using the eight screws for the mount bracket (four per bracket) 

and a suitable screwdriver.

3. Mount the gateway within your organization’s rack system using the four screws for the system 

rack mount (two per bracket) and a suitable screwdriver. See 

Figure 7

.

Each 9012 gateway should have it’s own mounting equipment. Do not place other networking equipment directly 

on top of a mounted gateway. Failure to do so can damage the device.

Some racks require screws that differ from those included with the 9012 gateway. Ensure that you have the correct 

screws before installing the device.
