Installing Vertical ePDUs in a Rack Cabinet
Regardless of the configuration you choose, there are three mounting methods available for installing the ePDU
vertically in a rack cabinet:
l
Using factory-installed buttons on the ePDU to mount the ePDU in keyhole openings in the rack frame
l
Using buttons on clip feet to mount the ePDU in keyhole openings in the rack frame
l
Using clip feet and cage nuts secured to the rack to mount the ePDU onto the clip
Review the installation methods described in this section and choose the method appropriate for your
environment.
NOTE
If you need to remove the ePDU from clip feet, hold on to the ePDU and use a flat
screwdriver to unsnap it from the clip.
Using Factory-installed Mounting Buttons
To install the ePDU with mounting buttons directly attached to the ePDU:
1.
Carefully move the ePDU into position against the rail.
2.
Insert the top and bottom mounting buttons into the keyhole slots on the rack post that correspond with
the position of the top and bottom mounting buttons.
3.

Continue to “Grounding the ePDU” on page 23 if you are installing a ground screw and grounding cable.

The ePDU will fit tight and it may require minor force to engage in the slot. This is a
friction fit to hold the ePDU in the slot.
