Mounting the CiscoSFS 3012R Server Switch on a Rack
Step3 Attach the shelf rails to either side of the CiscoSFS 3012R Server Switch chassis as follows:
a. Unpack the shelf assembly kit (ordered and shipped separately).
b. Identify the shelf rails labeled TS360/SFS 3012.
c. Attach the rails to the chassis with the four screws provided, as shown in Figure2-1.
Step4 Mount the shelf onto the rack, as shown in Figure 2-2, using the procedure outlined below. (For
additional details about the shelf installation procedure, see “Install the Shelf Kit” in the Cisco SFS 7008
InfiniBand and Cisco 3012 Multifabric Server Switches Optional Shelf Kit, Contents and Installation
Guide, which ships with the shelf assembly.)
a. Unpack the shelf assembly, and remove the extension brackets.
b. Verify that the shelf position provides sufficient clearance for the Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch
and all cables.
c. Use four screws that fit your rack (not included) to attach the extension brackets to the rack posts at
the rack end at which the bezel end of the chassis will sit. Each bracket must wrap around the inside
of the rack post and attach by its flange to the side of the rack post that faces away from the rack.
d. Slide the shelf onto the installed extension brackets until the shelf flange makes contact with the
rack posts at the rack end at which the cable end of the chassis will sit.
