2-4 Installing the System into a Rack
This section provides information on installing the 2020A-8R into a rack unit. If the
2020A-8R has already been mounted into a rack, you can skip ahead to Sections
2-5 and 2-6.
There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may mean the assembly
procedure will differ slightly. The following is a guideline for installing the 2020A-
8R into a rack with the rack rails provided. You should also refer to the installation
instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails
You should have received two rack rail assemblies with the 2020A-8R. Each of
these assemblies consist of two sections: an inner fi xed chassis rail that secures
to the chassis (A) and an outer fi xed rack rail that secures directly to the rack itself
(B). All screws and hardware mentioned in the installation steps should be included
in the hardware kit.
To remove the fi xed chassis rail (A), pull it out as far as possible - you should hear
a "click" sound as a locking tab emerges from inside the rail assembly and locks
the inner rail. Then depress the locking tab to pull the inner rail completely out.
Do this for both the left and right side rack rail assemblies.
