4. Route the power cord from the PDU toward the rack cabinet side braces; then, route the power cord
along a side brace toward the back of the rack cabinet, and secure the power cord with the cable straps
that come with the PDU.
5. Route the power cord toward a dedicated power source. Use the provided cable straps to secure the
power cord along the way. If the power cord must exit the rack cabinet to connect to a power source,
use the openings in the rack cabinet.
6. Connect the power cord to a properly wired and grounded dedicated power source. Then, you can
connect servers or rack PDUs in the rack cabinet to the power outlets on the PDU.

Installing the PDU in the side of an Enterprise rack cabinet only

Note: Removing the rack doors and side panels might make installation easier. See the rack cabinet
documentation for more information.
Review the documentation that comes with your rack cabinet for safety and cabling information. When you
install the PDU in a rack cabinet, observe the following precautions:
• Make sure that the room air temperature is below 35°C (95°F).
• Do not block any air vents; usually 15 cm (6 in.) of air space provides proper airflow.
• Connect all power cords to properly wired and grounded electrical outlets.
• Do not overload the power outlet when you install multiple devices in the rack.
You must use clip nuts to install the mounting brackets. Clip nuts come with the PDU and are installed on the
rack mounting flanges, as shown in the following illustration.
