Setting Up the System 2-5
Assembly
This section describes how to assemble your rack-mount server unit into a
standard IAE 19 inch rack cabinet.
!
CAUTION
Ensure that the location of the rack-mount server unit does
not create an unstable condition when installed in the rack
cabinet.
1. Select an appropriate location in your rack cabinet for the rack-mount server
unit. To improve rack stability, mount heavier items towards the bottom of
the rack cabinet.
Note: When planning your system configuration for the
rack cabinet you should consider the length of the cables
that interconnect system components.
2. Locate the two support brackets (D). Using four self tapping screws (E)
supplied with the rack cabinet for each support bracket, attach the two
support brackets to the vertical mounting rails (A and B) of the rack cabinet.
3. Install the four caged nuts (C) that secure the front of the rack-mount server
unit to the rack cabinet. Position the caged nuts to align with the screw holes
in the front bezel of the rack-mount server unit.
Note: The caged nuts are secured into the vertical
mounting rails of the rack cabinet by inserting one side of the
nut into the slot and squeeze while pressing the opposite
side until it snaps into place.
