Installing the System into a Rack

This section provides information on installing the SC8298 chassis into a rack unit
with the quick-release rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market,
which may mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. You should also refer to
the installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Note: This rail will fi t a rack between 26" and 33.5" deep.
Warning! Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in
place, or the rack must be bolted to the fl oor before you slide the unit out
for servicing. Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over.

Separating the Sections of the Rack Rails

The chassis package includes two rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each
assembly consists of two sections: an inner fi xed chassis rail that secures directly
to the server chassis and an outer fi xed rack rail that secures directly to the rack
itself.

Installing the Inner Rail Extension

The SC8298 chassis includes a set of inner rails in two sections: inner rails and
inner rail extensions. Inner rail extensions are attached to the inner rails to mount
the chassis in the rack.
Installing the Inner Rails
1. Place the inner rail extensions on the side of the chassis aligning the hooks
of the chassis with the rail extension holes. Make sure the extension faces
"outward" just like the pre-attached inner rail.
2. Slide the extension toward the front of the chassis.
3. Secure the chassis with 2 screws as illustrated. Repeat steps for the other
inner rail extension.
