RMC 7132
1U Rackmount System
2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the Acnodes RMC7132 into a rack unit. If the system has
already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead to Sec- tions 2-5 and 2-6. There are a variety of
rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. The following is a
guideline for installing the unit into a rack with the rack rails provided with the system. You should also
refer to the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
You should have received two rack rail assemblies with the Acnodes RMC7132. Each of these assem-
blies consist of two sections: an inner fixed chassis rail that secures to the unit (A) and an outer fixed
rack rail (B) that secures to the rail brackets. A sliding rail guide sandwiched between the two should
remain attached to the fixed rack rail (see Figure 2-1). The A and B rails must be detached from each
other to install.
To remove the fixed chassis rail (A), pull it out as far as possible - you should hear a "click" sound as a
locking tab emerges from inside the rail assembly and locks the inner rail. Then depress the locking tab
to pull the inner rail completely out. Do this for both the left and right side rack rail assemblies.
