Figure 9: Rack Rail Kit Parts
To mount the system into the rack:
Before mounting the system to the rack, select the way you wish to place the system. Pay atten-
tion to the airflow within the rack cooling, connector and cabling options.
While planning how to place the system, consider the two installation options shown in
, and review the following points:
• Make sure the system air flow is compatible with your installation selection. It is import-
ant to keep the airflow within the rack in the same direction.
• Note that the part of the system to which you choose to attach the rails (the front panel
direction, as demonstrated in Option 1 or the FRUs direction, as demonstrated in Option
2) will determine the system’s adjustable side. The system’s part to which the brackets
are attached will be adjacent to the cabinet.
• The FRU side is extractable. Mounting the rack brackets inverted to the FRU side
(Option 2) will allow you to slide the FRUs, in and out.
