Rackmounting the Battery Backup Unit
The BBU is designed to fit within an 1U rack space. DDN recommends that you install the
BBU directly below its respective controller.
This procedure applies to both models of BBU (5P1550GR and 1550), unless otherwise
noted.
The rackmount kit for the BBU includes two mounting brackets (with 4 screws) and two
rack rails (with 8 screws and washers)
. Note that the power cord retainers are
not
used with the SFA12K.
Remote Power Connector
Ensure that the remote power connector is securely attached to the back panel of the BBU
as shown in
, otherwise the BBU will not function correctly.
A.2.1
Battery Manufacturing Date
Note down the BBU’s battery manufacturing date
. You will need to enter this date
during initial system setup. The date is usually marked on the BBU packaging or the BBU
itself.
