Rack Installation Guide
This installation guide provides instructions for trained service technicians installing one or more Dell PowerEdge 1550 or Dell PowerApp 120 systems in a rack. This guide includes procedures for the following three rack kits:
Two-post center-mount
Two-post flush-mount
Four-post rack cabinet
One rack kit is required for each system to be installed in the rack.
CAUTION: When installing multiple systems in a rack, complete all of the procedures before attempting to install the next system.
Two-Post Center-Mount Rack Kit Installation
This procedure provides instructions for installing a system in a two-post open-frame relay rack, such as those found in telecommunications equipment facilities. Both 3-inch and 6-inch wide two-post racks are accommodated.
The two-post open-frame relay rack must be properly secured to the floor, to the ceiling or upper wall, and where applicable, to adjacent racks, using floor and wall fasteners and bracing specified or approved by the rack manufacturer or by industry standards. Refer to the two-post open-frame relay rack manufacturer’s installation documentation for precautionary warnings and information before attempting this installation.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to install the system into a two-post open-frame relay rack that has not been securely anchored in place. Damage to the system and personal injury may result.
