SYSTEM INTRODUCTION
The FT5000 server is designed to either stand upright (pedestal mode) or be mounted in a rack
(rack mode). Figures below show examples of these configurations. Before operation, you must
configure the server for one of the two modes. (As standard the FT5000 is fitted with the pedestal
mountings, but a separate rack mounting kit is available).
If you require a rack mounting kit and have not already purchased one, contact your Mitsubishi
Electric supplier for details. For installation in an equipment rack, see the ‘FT5000 Rack
Mounting Guide’ booklet for full information.
