Rack Installation

6-1 Overview

This chapter provides instructions for installing the chassis into a rack. Following

these steps in the order given should enable you to have the system installed in a

minimal amount of time.

6-2 Unpacking the System

You should inspect the box the chassis was shipped in, and note if it was damaged

in any way. If the chassis itself shows damage, you should le a damage claim with

the carrier who delivered it.

Decide on a suitable location for the rack unit that will hold your chassis. It should

be situated in a clean, dust-free area that is well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat,

electrical noise and electromagnetic elds are generated. Place it near a grounded

power outlet. Be sure to read the Rack and Server Precautions in the next section.

6-3 Preparing for Setup

The box your chassis was shipped in should include four mounting screws, which

you will need if you intend to install the system into a rack.Read this section in its en-

tirety before you begin the installation procedure outlined in the sections that follow.

Choosing a Setup Location

•Leave enough clearance in front of the rack to enable you to open the front

door completely (~25 inches).

•Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow for

sufcient airow and ease in servicing.

•This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated

equipment rooms, service closets and similar environments).
