Installing the System into a Rack

This section provides information on installing the 2028TR-HTR/HTFR/H72R/H72FR
into a rack unit with the rails provided. There are a variety of rack units on the market,
which may mean that the assembly procedure will differ slightly from the instructions
provided. You should also refer to the installation instructions that came with the
rack unit you are using. Note: This rail will fit a rack between 26.5" and 36.4" deep.

Identifying the Sections of the Rack Rails

The chassis package includes two rail assemblies in the rack mounting kit. Each
assembly consists of three sections: An inner chassis rail which secures directly to
the chassis, an outer rail that secures to the rack, and a middle rail which extends
from the outer rail (see Figure 2-1). These assemblies are specifically designed for
the left and right side of the chassis.
