Page 5: Rack Mounting Safety Considerations
Rack Mounting Safety Considerations • Rack mounting — You may either place the switch on a rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310-E- compliant rack. • Rack loading — Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf or rack failure, which may damage the equipment and cause personal injury. -
Page 6: Installing The Dell Readyrails System
Installing the Dell ReadyRails System The ReadyRails rack mounting system is provided to easily configure your rack so that you can install your switch. Install the ReadyRails system using the 1U tool-less method or one of three possible 1U tooled methods (two-post flush mount, two-post center mount, or four-post threaded). - Page 7 (on the switch side of the rail) and remove each casting. Retain the castings for future rack requirements. It is not necessary to remove the rear flange castings. Attach one rail to the front post flange with two user-supplied screws. Refer to item 2 in the following figure.
- Page 8 Figure 3. Two-Post Center-Mount Configuration Four-Post Threaded Configuration To install the Dell ReadyRails system using the four-post threaded configuration, follow these steps. For this configuration, remove the flange ear castings from each end of the ReadyRails assemblies. Use a Torx driver to remove the two screws from each flange ear and remove each casting. Refer to item 1 of the following figure.
- Page 9 Figure 4. Four-Post Threaded Configuration Install the S4048-ON System You can mount the system in the 1U front-rack or 1U two-post (flush and center) configurations. The following is an example of a front-rack configuration. For the 1U two-post (flush and center) configurations, slide the system into the rails in the same manner as the four-post configurations.
- Page 10 Figure 5. Attaching the Switch Rails After you have installed both switch rails, line them up on the previously mounted Ready-Rails and slide the switch in until it is flush with front of rack. About 3 inches before you fully insert your system, the rail locking feature engages to keep the switch from inadvertently sliding out of the rack and falling.
