Rack Mounting

CAUTION!

It is strongly recommended to rack mount the MAXX-2400HD before installing the drives. This will reduce the weight significantly, and simplify the mounting process.

In North America, the rack slide rails will be mounted in a 19” rack enclosure having 10-24 or 10-32 tapped holes. In countries with metric standards, the user will need to supply appropriate fasteners.

Install the included rack mount slide rails in the rack. They must be securely mounted at both the front and back of the rack. Extend the slides in the slide rails. Carefully mate them with the rails on the sides of the MAXX-2400HD – this process requires at least two people unless an adjustable lift is available. Slide the MAXX-2400HD into the rack.

Deploy the front panel to expose the rack screw slots. Unscrew the knurled fasteners and pull forward and down to deploy the front panel. Fasten the MAXX-2400HD into the rack using appropriate flat-head screws (#10 Phillips screws provided in North America). Retract the front panel. Tighten the front panel access screws.

Cables attached to the rear of the MAXX-2400HD should be supported. Do not suspend substantial cable weight from the server.

Mounting an Audio Module (AXP-3, AXP-4 or DXP-1)

An optional multi-channel audio module may also be rack mounted above or below the MAXX-2400HD, on the front or rear of the rack. Four elongated screw holes are provided to facilitate rack mounting of the AXP Module. Audio modules are connected to the server with the supplied 68 Pin cable. Connect one end to the mating connector on the rear of the audio module. Connect the other end to the rear panel of the server.

Mounting the Control Module (CXP)

The supplied CXP module may also be rack mounted above or below the MAXX-2400HD, on the front or rear of the rack. Four elongated screw holes are provided to facilitate rack mounting of the CXP Module. The CXP module is connected to the server using the supplied 68 Pin cable.

Connect one end of the cable to the mating connector on the rear of the CXP Module. Connect the other end to the rear panel of the server. Refer to Figure 5 on page 28 for information about connecting GPI and automation signals to the CXP Module.
