Mounting the installation kit and the server
For mounting the server in the DataCenter Rack at first a support bracket must
be mounted on the rear left support upright. The support bracket must be
mounted level with the lower edge of the server. Cage nuts and/or spring nuts
also must be inserted in the support uprights. The support bracket is used for
the rear fixing of the left carrier rail, the cage nuts are used for fixing the support
bracket and the front panel, the spring nuts for fixing the carrier rails:
Ê Take the fitting instruction in the Technical Manual for the corresponding rack
model for aid.
Ê Using the mounting aid (stencil) mark the position of the attachment points
of the server on the support uprights (7 height units).
Refer to the information on the mounting aid.
Ê Mount the support bracket using two screws and cage nuts on the corre-
sponding height on the rear left support upright.
Ê If required, you can mount one additional a cable clip for vertical cable
routing.
Ê Mark the mounting points of the server (knurled screws on the front panel)
on the front support upright. Also mark the fastening points of the telescopic
rails on the inside grooves of the support uprights facing backwards. The
bottom edge of the fastening flange must be flush with the top housing cover
of any device already mounted.
Ê Place the cage nuts and/or the spring nuts in the groove of the support
uprights and/or of the support bracket at the marked attachment points. If
necessary, adjust the position of the nuts in the groove until they lock into
the correct position.
