About this task
The 2145-92F expansion enclosure and most parts are shipped together in one large
box. A tray on top of the enclosure contains the front fascia (1U and 4U pieces), the
cable management arm (CMA), and the slide rail kit; you must install these parts.
Figure 46 shows how the enclosure is packaged for shipment.

Fascia
Other parts, such as the cover, secondary expander modules, and fans, are installed
in the enclosure. However, due to weight considerations, you must remove some
parts and then reinstall them as part of the initial installation process.
Note: Drives are not included in installation package for the enclosure; they are
provided in a separate package.
Procedure
1. Remove the cardboard tray that contains the slide rails, cable management
arm, and fascia from cardboard box in which the expansion enclosure was
shipped.
2. Remove the foam end pieces from the top of the 2145-92F expansion
enclosure.

and faces of the expansion enclosure, as shown in Figure 47 on page 55.
