Installation and Configuration

WARNING: Before performing the following procedure, review the safety instructions that came with the system.

Unpacking the System

Unpack your system and identify each item.

Installing the Rails and System in a Rack

CAUTION: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer. For more information, see "Technical Specifications" on page 7.

Assemble the rails and install the system in the rack following the safety instructions and the rack installation instructions provided with your system.

Connecting the Power Cable(s)

Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF postion before connecting the power cables. Connect the system’s power cable(s) to the system.

Securing the Power Cable(s)

Bend the system power cable(s) as shown in the illustration and secure the cable(s) firmly to the bracket using the provided strap.

Plug the other end of the power cables into a grounded electrical outlet or a separate power source such as an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) or a power distribution unit (PDU).
