Chapter 2: Server Installation

Installing the Server into a Telco Rack

To install the SuperServer 1026T-M3 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.
