To install the DXi3500/DXi5500 chassis:
1
Assemble the DXi3500/DXi5500 support brackets
•
For the DXi5500
- The DXi5500 rails are preset for easy installation. Loosen the two
nuts securing the back portion of the rail so the rail can adjust to the depth of the
rack.
•
For the DXi3500
- The DXi3500 rails are preset for 28 in (71.1cm). Loosen the nuts
to adjust the rails to the depth of the rack.
Note:
Quantum ships sufficient clip nuts to support mounting the DXi3500/DXi5500
rack rails and also to secure the front of the chassis to the rails.
Note:
Ensure that clip nuts are installed on the rails (see
) prior to installing
the DXi5500 rails.
Note:
Two sizes of support brackets are included with the DXi3500 rails to
support various rack depths. Measure the depth of the rack to determine
the depth. The
short brackets
(5 in., 12.7cm) are used for rack depths of 28
to 31 in (71.1 to 78.7 cm). The
long brackets
(10 in., 25.4 cm) are used for
rack depths of 32 to 36 in (81.3 to 91.4 cm). Use the appropriate support
bracket for your rack.
