Installing The Hardware - Dell Force10 S4810P Quick Start Manual

Installing the Hardware

This guide assumes all site preparation has been performed before installing the
chassis.
Installing the S4810 Chassis in a Rack or
Cabinet
To install the S4810 system, Dell Force10 recommends that you complete the
installation procedures in the order presented below.
Always handle the system and its components with care. Avoid dropping the
S4810 chassis or its field replaceable units.
For proper ventilation, position the S4810 chassis in an equipment rack (or
cabinet) with a minimum of five inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around exhaust
vents. The acceptable ambient temperature ranges are listed in the
Environmental Parameters section.
CAUTION: Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when
handling the S4810 and its components. As with all electrical devices of this
type, take all necessary safety precautions to prevent injury when installing
this system. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if components
are mishandled.
Attaching Mounting Brackets
The S4810 is shipped with mounting brackets (rack ears) and required screws
for rack or cabinet installation. The brackets are enclosed in a package with the
chassis.
Step Task
Take the brackets and screws out of their packaging.
