Warning : do not pick up the server with the front handles. They are designed
to pull the system from a rack only.
Installing the Server into a Telco Rack
To install the SuperServer 1027R-73DAF into a Telco type rack, use two L-shaped
brackets on either side of the chassis (four total). First, determine how far follow the
server will extend out the front of the rack. Larger chassis should be positioned to
balance the weight between front and back. If a bezel is included on your server,
remove it. Then attach the two front brackets to each side of the chassis, then the
two rear brackets positioned with just enough space to accommodate the width of
the telco rack. Finish by sliding the chassis into the rack and tightening the brackets
to the rack.
Note: these fi gures are for illustration puposes only. Always install servers to the
bottom of a rack fi rst.
