Rack Mounting the System
CAUTION: It is recommended that you fit and check a suitable anti-static wrist or ankle strap and
observe all conventional ESD precautions when handling plug-in modules and components. Avoid contact
with backplane components and module connectors, etc.
CAUTION: An unpopulated enclosure can weigh up to 46kg (101lb). Do not try to lift it by yourself.
Due to the weight of the enclosure, install it without the drive carriers.
The adjustment range of the rail kit, from the inside of the front post to the inside of the rear post
is 660mm - 840mm. This suits a one-meter deep rack within Rack Specification IEC 60297.
NOTE: A screwdriver with a Torx T20 tip is needed to lock and unlock the drawers.
To rack mount the ContentStore 5840:
1. To facilitate access, remove the door from the rack.
2. Ensure the pre-assembled rails are at their shortest length.
3. Locate the rail location pins inside the front of the rack and extend the length of the rail
assembly to enable the rear location pins to locate. Ensure the pins are fully located in the
square or round holes in the rack posts (see
