HARdWARE INSTALLATIONS
Tesla 1U GPU Computing System Installation
Mounting the Tesla System in a Rack
Plan your rack configuration to ensure you have the proper cables to
reach from the Tesla system to your host system. The Tesla system
ships with 0.5-meter cables by default. An optional 2-meter cable is
available.
The Tesla system also ships with rails to fit a 4-post 19-inch EIA rack
as the default configuration.
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating
ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than
room ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be given
to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the
manufacturer's maximum rated ambient temperature (Tmra). The
maximum operating ambient temperature is 35 ºC.
1
Remove one of the rails from the packing box.
2
Remove the mounting screws attached to either end of the rail.
Set aside as you will need these to secure the rail to the rack at the
end of the steps. Remove any existing graphics card (if there is one).
Save hardware (such as screws and brackets) to use when installing
the NVIdIA graphics card.
