2.5 Installing the Server into a Telco Rack
The inner rails should remain attached when installing into a telco rack.
1. Use the two L-shaped brackets (four total) to suspend the sides of the chassis within the
rack.
2. Determine how far the chassis 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.
3. 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.
4. Finish by sliding the chassis into the rack and tightening the brackets to the rack.
