4. Attach the monitor base to the inside of the keyboard tray using the screws that
come with the rack mount kit.
5. Fold the monitor all the way down against the bumpers; then, slide the keyboard

power, and how to connect the monitor to a server or console switch.
Installing a monitor shelf
The monitor shelf can support a monitor that weighs up to 34 kg (75 lb), and
occupies 4U of space in your rack cabinet. Space is provided in the rear of the
monitor shelf so that you can install a console switch according to “IBM NetBAY
Console Switch” on page 121.
Note: The actual amount of space used in your rack cabinet depends on the height
of the monitor that you put on the shelf, in addition to the space taken by the
shelf itself. Some monitors might require up to 10U of space in your rack
cabinet.
