FM 3180 and FM 2072 hinged rack mounting assembly
Guidelines and Restrictions
• The hinged thumb screw bracket enables you to swing the bracket out of the way of the rack power distribution
unit (PDU) when installing or removing the fabric module.
• For ease of I/O connections, this procedure installs the fabric module in the rack with the front panel (I/O side)
facing the back of the rack; the same side as server/storage I/O connections. You must install the rails so that the
fabric module is installed from the back of the rack with the thumbscrew fasteners at the back of the rack.
Procedure
1. Determine the 1-U slot position in the rack.
2. Separate the chassis slide rails from the rack rails by doing the following with both rail sets:
a. Loosen the thumbscrew and pull the slide rail out until it stops.
b. Push the rail release spring in to release the latch.
c. Remove the slide rail.
3. Install the rack rails in the rack slot:
