NOTE
Hardware devices illustrated in these procedures are only for reference and may not depict the device you are installing into the
rack.
1. Position the right front bracket with the flat side against the right side of the device as shown in the following figure.
2. Insert two 8-32 x 5/16 in. screws into one of the pairs of vertically aligned holes in the bracket and then into the pair of holes
on the side of the device. There are three pairs of vertically aligned holes in the brackets. To install the device flush to the front of
the rack, use the pair of holes at the front of the bracket. To install the device in a recessed position in the rack, use one of the
other two pairs of bracket holes that are set back from the end of the bracket.
3. Insert each 8-32 x 5/16 in. screw through the holes in the bracket and into the corresponding hole in the device and tighten all
8-32 x 5/16 in. screws to a torque of 15 in-lb (17 cm-kg).
4. Repeat step 1 through step 3 to attach the left front bracket to the left side of the device.

NOTE
Ensure that the device is oriented properly with the air-intake aisle. The power supply and fan FRU airflow must be the
same to prevent overheating. If both FRUs have the Intake (I) label or no label, orient the device with the fan facing the
air-intake aisle. If both FRUs have the Exhaust (E) label, orient the port side of the device to face the air-intake aisle.
Installing the device in the rack
The rails in the Slim Rail Rack Mount Kit (XBR-R000291) have been specially designed for the following devices. Because this device is
slightly wider than other devices, the rails are narrower to account for the additional width. Do not attempt to mount the device with
standard rail kits.
