About This Guide
This guide provides site preparation recommendations, step-by-step procedures to rack mount the
Force10 Networks E1200 ExaScale chassis, as well as instructions to install its fan trays, power supplies,

The E1200 system is packaged with components necessary for optimal performance, including blank
panels for RPM, SFM3, and line card slots. Blanks are required in empty slots to ensure adequate system
cooling and for EMI containment during operation.

process and power up the system, refer to the
