Installing Enclosures Into a Rack
This section describes how to install the enclosures into a standard 19-inch rack
cabinet with a 28 to 36-inch (71.12 to 91.44-cm) depth.
Note –
Keep all hardware items in plastic bags until you are ready to use them. This
enables you to correctly identify the screws and avoid confusion.
Preparing the Rack
Before installing enclosures in a rack cabinet, ensure the rack is installed according
to its installation instructions and that the installation complies with local safety
codes.
1. Stabilize the rack as described in its documentation.
2. If the rack has casters, make sure the casters are locked to prevent the rack from
rolling.
3. Remove or open the top front panel and the vented back panel.
