Preparing the Cabinet
Select the cabinet in which you will be installing the array. Be sure the cabinet is
installed as described in the installation instructions provided with it.
1. Stabilize the cabinet as described in the cabinet documentation.
2. If the cabinet has casters, make sure the casters are locked to prevent the
cabinet from rolling.
3. Remove or open the front panel.
4. Remove or open the vented back panel.
Planning the Order of the Tray Installation
Install the trays starting with the controller tray at the lowest available 2RU tray slot
in the cabinet. Next, install the expansion trays for the first controller tray. If room
remains in the cabinet, repeat for the next controller and expansion trays.
Starting at the bottom distributes the weight correctly in the cabinet.
