Preparing the Rack for Server Installation
To prepare the rack for a server installation:
•
Measure with the rack template.
•
Insert cage nuts into the rack frame.
•
Install the rack rail assemblies.
Measuring with the Template
The rack template provides an easy and reliable way to properly position the rack rail
assemblies in the rack.
•
The template is two-sided and is printed with arrows that show you where to
insert rack rail assemblies on the front and back of the rack.
•
The template determines the mounting position of the rack rail assemblies and
the cage nuts (supplied with the rack kit) that secure the rack bezel to the rack
after installation.
