Getting Started

Site Considerations The IntelliFrame Mainframe is designed to operate on a bench or in a rackmount environment. For proper cooling, allow at least 2 in (5.1 cm) of clearance on the rear and sides of the mainframe. Determine how you will use your mainframe with cable trays, and then follow the appropriate installation instructions. If you ordered your mainframe with a cable tray option and rackmount option, install the cable tray before installing the rackmount.

WARNING. To avoid personal injury, use care when lifting or moving the mainframe to avoid personal injury while performing the installation proce- dures.

Cable Tray Installation The IntelliFrame Mainframe comes a with a 0.75-inch cable access area on the bottom of the mainframe. Use the following procedure to install your cable tray option:

You will need a T-20 Torx and Phillips driver to install Options 1U or 2U.

Options 1U and 2U can be installed three different ways; without rails, with rails, or with rails installed at 90_.

Figure 1±2 on page 1±8 and Figure 1±3 on page 1±9 show how to install Option 1U (without rails, with rails, rails at 90_) to provide a cable tray depth of 1.75, 2.50, or 4.25 inches.

Figure 1±4 on page 1±10 and Figure 1±5 on page 1±11 show how to install Option 2U (without rails, with rails, rails at 90_) to provide a cable tray depth of 3.50, 4.25, or 6.00 inches.

Both options come with butch plates to mount cable connectors at the rear of the cable trays. The butch plate will not fit on Option 1U when the foot rails are not used. You can modify the butch plate to accept cable connectors at the rear of the mainframe. Specific instructions for modifying the butch plate are not given since the locations, types, and size of connectors vary with each application.
