Installing the Infoblox 4000 Series Appliance
Refer to the following sections to rack mount appliances in the Infoblox 4000 Series, connect them to a power source, and cable them to a
network. Before proceeding, review the
and follow the necessary precautions.
Infoblox Safety Guide
Note: Ensure that you install the appliance in an environment that allows open air to the front and back of the appliance. Do not obstruct the
appliance or block air flow going from the front to the back of the appliance.
Infoblox 4000 Series appliances are installed in a four-post seismic rack.
Infoblox 4000 Series appliances ship with an adjustable sliding four-post rack-mounting accessory kit that contains mounting hardware. To mount
the appliance to a four-post seismic rack, you also need the following:
M5 rack screws that fit the seismic rack (bundled with the accessory kit)
Round-hole M5 cage nuts for use with the seismic rack (bundled with the accessory kit)
A Phillips-head #2 screwdriver
SFP/SFP+ Transceiver Installation and Removal Guidelines
After receiving a shipped Infoblox 4000 Series appliance with SFP or SFP+ support, Infoblox recommends installing the transceivers into your
appliance before turning power on to the system for the first time. Pay heed to the interface configuration required for your appliance deployment
when inserting your SFP/SFP+ transceivers.
Should circumstances require you to ship an appliance to Infoblox for repair or replacement,
remove all SFP or SFP+ transceivers from your appli
. Keep your transceivers in your facility until the appliance is replaced or repaired and subsequently
ance before shipping it back to Infoblox
returned to you.
Infoblox 4000 Series Rack Installation
Infoblox 4000 Series appliances require the following space and airflow for system operation:
Minimum clearance of 63.5 cm (25 in) in front of the rack;
Minimum clearance of 76.2cm (30 in) in the rear of the rack;
Minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 in) from the rack rear to the back of another rack or row of racks.
The Infoblox appliance draws air in through the front of the chassis and expels air through the rear. Adequate ventilation requires ambient room
air to freely enter the system chassis and to be expelled from the rear of the chassis.
To mount the appliance to a seismic rack, do the following:
Unscrew the snap-in screws from the mounting rails and discard.
Install the round-hole M5 cage nuts in the appropriate rack hole positions where you want to install the appliance. Ensure that you install
two cage nuts on the front and two on the back of each rail.
