Figure 15: Rails Separation
To separate the rails, follow these steps:
1.
Extend the rail assembly by pulling the extension outwards (D).
2.
Extract rail A from rail C by pushing it outside from the rear part of the assembly. To allow
complete separation of rail A from rail C, press the quick-release latch.
Before mounting the system to the rack, select the way you wish to place the system. Pay attention
to the airflow within the rack cooling, connector and cabling options.
While planning how to place the system, 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.
•
In case there are cables that cannot bend within the rack, or in case more space is needed for
cable bending radius, it is possible to recess the connector side or the FRU side by 3” or 4”
(7.62 or 10.16cm) by optional placement of the system’s rails.
•
The FRU side is extractable. Mounting the sliding rail inverted to the system will allow you to
slide the FRU side of the system, in and out.
Follow these steps:
Step 1.
Install 10 cage nuts into the desired 1U slots of the rack: 4 cage nuts in the non-extractable
side and 6 cage nuts in the extractable side.
