Rear Support Bars and Brackets
Under normal conditions, mounting the frame to the front of the rack with four rack screws should be
sufficient to carry the load, including the weight of accompanying cables. The optional Rear Support
Bars and Brackets (FSB-8310 or FSB-8320) are specifically engineered to compensate for extra load
stress associated with certain applications, such as mobile truck installations, to also support the rear of
the frame.

Installing the Rear Support Bars and Brackets
The rear support bars can be attached to the openGear frame in six possible positions; refer to Figure
2.1.
Use the following procedure to install the rear support bars and brackets:
1. Choose the position that suits the cabinet depth that will give approximately a ½ inch
(0.5") projection beyond the rear vertical mounting rails.
2. Install a Rear Support Bars to each side of the Frame using the supplied screws in the
four locations as shown in Figure 2.1.
• Fasten one bar to each side of the openGear frame.
• Six different installation positions are possible by aligning the screw hole
patterns in the bars with the four screw locations in the frame.
• Use only the supplied screws.
3. Mount the openGear frame to the front rails of the rack cabinet using four rack
screws fastened through the front mounting flanges.
4. At the rear of the cabinet, slide the bracket slots over the rear of the support bars
5. Secure to the cabinet rear rails with two rack screws each.
This completes the procedure to install the rear support bars and brackets.
