1. Use the template that comes with the UPS to determine where to install clip
nuts that come with the UPS.
2. If you are installing rails, do the following:
a. Adjust the length of the rails to fit the depth of the rack cabinet.
b. Install clip nuts on the rail instead of the rack mounting flanges.
c. Install the rails on each side of the rack cabinet, using the screws and
washers that come with the UPS.
3. Slide the UPS into the bottom of your rack cabinet; then, attach the UPS to the
rack mounting flanges using clip nuts and M6 screws.
4. See the UPS and other optional device documentation for information on how to
connect cables.
Installing a power distribution unit
The power distribution unit (PDU) comes with mounting brackets so that you can
install it vertically in the side of your rack cabinet, or horizontally in 1U of rack
mounting space. When choosing an installation location, ensure that power cables
from other devices can reach the PDU. See the documentation that comes with the
PDU for detailed installation instructions.
