A mounting system (700/900) for locking two pieces of telecommunications equipment (610/810) to prevent relative sliding therebetween and relative separation therebetween in a direction generally perpendicular to the direction of the relative sliding includes a first locking feature (701/901) defined by a stud (702/902) with a stem portion (708/908) and a flange portion (710/910) having a larger profile than the stem portion (708/908) and a second locking feature (703/903) defined by a slot (704/904) with a receiver portion (712/912) and a retention portion (714/914). The receiver portion (712/912) is sized to accommodate the flange portion (710/910) of the stud (702/902) and the retention portion (714/914) is sized to accommodate the stem portion (708/908) but not the flange portion (710/910) of the stud (702/902). A third locking feature (705/905) prevents relative sliding between the two pieces of telecommunications equipment (610/810) once the stud stem portion (708/908) has been slid within the slot retention portion (714/914) and the stud flange portion (710/910) is out of alignment with the slot receiver portion (712/912).
