630 mm to 900 mm (24.80 in to 35.43 in)
IMPORTANT:
If you are not to use LSVM1BSR10 slide rails, use a tray with a load bearing capacity not less than
60 kg (132.28 lb) to support the device in the rack.
Installing slide rails
1.
Read the signs on the slide rails to identify the front and rear ends of the slide rails.
2.
Insert the locating pins at the bottom of the slide rails into the lowest square holes within the
target 2U space on the rack posts. Make sure the four installation holes on each end of the
slide rails align with the four square holes on the rack posts.
3.
As shown in
, mark the cage nut installation holes on each rack post for installing the
slide rails. Make sure the installation holes are at the same height on the four rack posts.
On each front rack post, mark the lower three aligned square holes. The top aligned square
hole will be blocked by the mounting bracket.
On each rear rack post, mark the four aligned square holes.
4.
Install cage nuts in the marked square holes on each rack post. See callout 3 in
5.
Use M6 screws to secure the slide rails to the rack posts. The recommended torque for the M6
screws is 30 kgf-cm (2.94 Nm).
On each front rack post, install M6 screws in the two lower cage nuts. The upper cage nut
on each front rack post will be used for securing the mounting bracket.
On each rear rack post, install M6 screws in all the four cage nuts.
Make sure the load-bearing surface of the slide rails is perpendicular to the rack posts.
