Installing devices vertically
Use the following procedure to mount the Rack PDU in the side of your rack
cabinet:
Note: The mounting holes on the upper and lower side braces in a rack side
compartment must be between 48.6 cm (19.1 in.) and 56.9 cm (22.4 in.)
apart. If your rack cabinet has movable side braces, refer to your rack
documentation for information about relocating your side braces if they are
not already spaced for this installation.
1. Refer to the documentation that comes with your rack cabinet for additional
information.
Note: Removing the rack doors and side panels might make your Rack PDU
installation easier.
2. Verify that the circuit breaker switch is in the Off position before installing your
Rack PDU.
3. Install the Rack PDU 3 to the vertical mounting plate 2 with four M3x5
screws 1 that come with this option. Make sure that the countersink holes in
the vertical mounting plate are facing away from the device.
Note: Align the Rack PDU to one end or the other of the vertical mounting
plate to leave room for a second device.
