Mellanox Technologies Vantage 8500 Installation Manual page 54

Rev A04
To make the chassis rack-mounting easier and accurate, Mellanox provides a special rack mount-
ing carton template that can be placed on the rack and be used as a guide prior to mounting the
chassis.
Make sure that the grounding stud is installed prior to the chassis installation.
To install the Vantage 8500 chassis in the rack:
1. Lift the chassis and place it on the rails, with the front of the chassis towards you as shown, and then
slide the chassis into place.
Due to its weight, a chassis that already contains plug-in modules (non-empty
chassis) should be installed using lifting equipment and /or sufficient people.
