4 Installation of 2U enclosures

Sequentially follow the installation checklist to install your 2U storage enclosure.

Unpack and prepare the 2U enclosure

CAUTION Do not operate a storage enclosure outside the manufacturer's intended use.
Storage enclosures are suitable for connection to intra-building or non-exposed wiring or cabling only.
l
Storage enclosures are suitable for installation in locations where the National Electrical Code (NEC) applies but are not
l
suitable for Outside Plant (OSP) installations.
Customer facilities must provide for voltages with not more than ± 5 percent fluctuation. Customer facilities must also
l
provide suitable surge protection.
To unpack and prepare the 2U enclosure:
1. Prepare the site for the storage enclosure installation. This includes meeting all product specifications and providing a
clean, clear, static-protected environment prior to unpacking the storage enclosure.
2. Complete the following actions to complete inspection of the 2U enclosure:
a. Examine packaging for damage. This includes cuts, water damage, or evidence of mishandling during shipment.
b. If there is damage, photograph and document it, but do not proceed. Retain original packaging for returns.
c. Cut open the package lid to remove all protective foam above the storage enclosure and access the chassis.
3. Slide the plastic bag aside to allow access to the chassis.
4. Locate two people to assist in moving the storage enclosure onto the mechanical lift, using an appropriate safe lifting
technique to perform the following actions:
a. Position a person on each side of the storage enclosure, grasping the chassis sides, not the front or rear panel.
IMPORTANT Almost all the weight of the storage enclosure is to the rear, so prepare to lift more from the side of
the chassis to the rear than the chassis side to the front.
b. Simultaneously lift the storage enclosure, using appropriate safe lifting technique while moving it to a static-protected
location, and then to the mechanical lift for mounting to the rack cabinet.
