(48 cm) Rack.
Both libraries are designed to fit in a standard 19-inch, 4-post rack but may
be too deep for some enclosed racks. An additional 3 inches of depth at the
back of the rack may be required to allow for cable clearance. See
Accessibility on page 25
minimum recommended clearances around the library.
Check your rack's specifications to make sure it will accommodate the
weight and depth of the library. Using a 4-post rack that is at least 43 inches
(110 cm) deep is recommended. A rack that allows access to the library's
side panels simplifies maintenance and service procedures. For stability,
Spectra Logic recommends mounting the library at the bottom of the rack.
Make sure that the rack is assembled and placed near the AC power outlets
and network connections.
Spectra T680
The T680 ships from the factory in its own rack. Allow an additional 24
inches (61 cm) of clearance at both the front and back of the rack to open
the rack doors.
