Installing the Shelf
The chassis is on ball bearings and can roll easily. Be aware that the chassis can roll off
of the pallet. Should the chassis start to fall, move out of the way. The chassis can
cause grave bodily harm should it fall on or near you.
1.
Select the location in the rack. Try to keep the chassis as low as possible to keep the center of
gravity low.
It is recommended to set the shelf at U5. Try and keep the chassis as low as possible.
The maximum height that the chassis can be mounted, will be determined by the maximum height
that the fork lift can raise the pallet.
2.
Open the Installation kit and make sure that all of the parts are in the box. See
Figure 2,"Installation Kit Parts".
The chassis will sit in the rack with the spine side as close as possible to the door.
The side of the chassis with the spine units will sit flush with the vertical supports of
the rack. The side of the chassis with the QSFP connectors will sit at the edge of the
shelf closer to the center of the rack.
3.
Measure the distance between the vertical supports and adjust the shelf bracket according to
this distance. This chassis can be installed a rack with a distance between the vertical sup-
ports of from 65cm(25.6in.) to 80cm(31.5in.).
