Mounting the System
There are two methods for installing this system into a rack:
With
Mounting Ear Brackets
only
This method is quick and easy by fixing this system to the front posts of the rack, but it also makes servicing
the system more difficult. Please note that the use of these brackets must go with a rack shelf or slide rails
to prevent the chassis from falling over, for the bracket assembly alone cannot provide sufficient support to
the chassis.
With
Slide
Rail Kit + Mounting Ear Brackets
This method is rather complicated, but the slidable rails allow you to access the system easily while securing
it in the rack solidly.
The system shall be installed on the rack along with a shelf or slide rails, for the “Mounting Ears" are meant to secure
the system, not to support it.
The Slide Rail Kit can
secure the system while
providing sufficient weight
support for the device.
