Installing the Server into a Telco Rack
To install the 6015X-3/6015X-T/6015X-8 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.
Installing the Server into the Rack
You should now have rails attached to both the chassis and the rack unit. The next
step is to install the server into the rack. Do this by lining up the rear of the chas-
sis rails with the front of the rack rails. Slide the chassis rails into the rack rails,
keeping the pressure even on both sides (you may have to depress the locking
tabs when inserting). See Figure 2-3.
When the server has been pushed completely into the rack, you should hear the
locking tabs "click". Finish by inserting and tightening the thumbscrews that hold
the front of the server to the rack.
