Mounting the SSA

Desktop Installation

For desktop installation, you must attach the adhesive rubber feet to the bottom of the SSA.
To attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the SSA:
1. Place the SSA upside down on a sturdy, flat surface.
2. Remove the adhesive backing from the four rubber feet.
3. Adhere the rubber feet to the round, recessed areas on the bottom of the SSA.
You can now unpack and install the SSA power supplies. See "Unpacking the Power Supplies" on
page 2‐12 and "Installing the Power Supplies" on page 2‐13.

Rack Mounting the SSA in a Four-post Rack

For a four‐post rack installation, the SSA rail kit requires that the front to back spacing of the rack
posts be within the range of 24.5 inches to 32.5 inches.
In a four‐post rack, the SSA is flush‐mounted on the rails supplied in the SSA rail kit and secured
to the front posts of the rack. If desired, you can secure the rear of the SSA to the rails.
To install the SSA in a four‐post rack:
1. Extend the right and left rails to fit the outside dimensions of the rack posts.
The rails in the SSA rail kit are shipped with the rail extensions attached. If the rails do not
slide easily, loosen the screws that secure the rail extensions to the main rails.
2. Position the right and left rails, which are labeled on the inside of each rail, in the rack with the
bottom lip of the rail facing into the rack.

The SSA rail kit does not include screws for attaching the rails or the SSA to the rack posts.
Caution: If you are installing an SSA in a four-post or two-post rack, you must use the SSA rail kit to
install the SSA in the rack. Do not attempt to secure the SSA directly to the rack using the small
front mounting ears.
Precaución: Si instala un SSA en un estante de cuatro o de dos postes, debe usar el kit de rieles
de SSA para realizar la instalación. No intente asegurar el SSA directamente en el estante usando
