Installing The Hp San Switch Rack Mount Kit In Your Hp Custom Rack; San Switch Rack Mount Kit Hardware - HP 1606 Hardware Reference Manual

Installing the HP SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit in your HP custom rack

The SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit enables you to install your HP device in the following HP custom
racks:
• HP System/e Rack
• HP 10000 G2 Series rack and HP 10000 Series rack
For optimal cable management, HP recommends that you install the SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit to
allow the nonport side of the switch to slide out of the cool-air side of the rack. In this installation, the
port side of the switch is set 12.7 cm (5 inches) back from the edge of the rack, allowing a more
gradual bend in the fiber optic cables.
NOTE:
The SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit installation requires one technician.
The following items are required to install the switch in a rack:
• A SAN Switch
• Power cables
• A #2 Phillips screwdriver
• A 7/16-inch wrench or socket
• For 8-Gb models, a plenum is required for 8/8 and 8/24 SAN Switches
• SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit hardware, listed in
