Chapter 2: Server Installation
Mid-Mount Telco Rack
The CSE-505-203B supports Telco Rack installation. The compact design allows it to be
installed into a Telco rack without the use of rails.
Figure 2-2. Installing the Server into a Rack
Note:
Figures are for illustrative purposes only. Servers should always be installed in racks
from the bottom up.
Installing the Chassis into a Telco (Two-Post Style) Rack
To install the chassis into a Telco style two-post rack, use two L-shaped brackets on either
side of the chassis (four total).
1. Determine how far the server will extend out the front of the rack. Larger chassis should
be positioned to balance the weight between front and back.
2. If a bezel is included on your chassis, remove it.
3. Attach the two front brackets to each side of the chassis.
4.
Attach the two rear brackets positioned with just enough space to accommodate the
width of the Telco rack.
5. Slide the chassis into the rack and tighten the brackets to the rack.
