Requirements for rackmount installation
You can install the chassis in an industry standard 19-inch cabinet capable of holding 2U form factors.
• Minimum depth: 707 mm (27.83") from rack posts to maximum extremity of chassis (includes rear
panel cabling and cable bend radii).
• Weight:
• Up to 32 kg (71 lb), dependent upon configuration, per 2U chassis.
• Up to 128 kg (282 lb), dependent upon configuration, per 5U chassis.
• The rack should cause a maximum back pressure of 5 pascals (0.5 mm water gauge).
• Before you begin, ensure that you have adequate clearance in front of the rack for installing the
rails.
Rackmount rail kit
Various sets of rack mounting rails are available for use in 19-inch rack cabinets. These rails have been
designed and tested for the maximum chassis weight, and to make sure that multiple chassis may be
installed without loss of space within the rack. Use of other mounting hardware may cause some loss
of rack space. Contact your supplier to make sure suitable mounting rails are available for the rack
you plan to use.
Installing 2U Chassis
Install the chassis as follows:
1 Remove the rack mounting rail kit from the accessories box, and examine for damage.
2 Use the following procedure to attach the rail kit brackets to the rack post as shown in Figure 60.
a Set the location pin at the rear of the rail into a rear rack post hole.
• Attach the bracket to the rear rack post: use the washers and screws supplied (callout 9, A
screw).
• Leave the screws loose.
b Extend the rail to fit between the front and rear rack posts.
c Attach the bracket to the front rack post using the washers and screws supplied (callout 3,
