Chapter 6: Rack Installation
Outer Rack Rails
Outer rails attach to the server rack and hold the server in place. The outer rails
for the SC523 chassis extend between 26" inches and 33.5" inches. Another set
of rails can be ordered that will fit a rack between 19" and 26" deep. To order the
second set of rails call or email customer support. The contact information can be
found in Chapter One of this manual.
Installing the Outer Rails to the Rack
Attach the short bracket to the outside of the long bracket. You must align the
pins with the slides. Also, both bracket ends must face the same direction.
Adjust both the short and long brackets to the proper distance so that the rail
fits snugly into the rack.
Secure the long bracket to the front side of the outer rail with two M5 screws
and the short bracket to the rear side of the outer rail with three M5 screws.
Repeat steps 1-4 for the left outer rail.
