About this guide
Rack options installation guide
This installation guide includes the instructions for installing rack option kits that are compatible with the
HPE 10000 G2 Series Rack.
For more information, see the 10000 G2 Series Rack User Guide on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise
website (http://www.hpe.com/info/rackandpower).
Important safety information
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, be sure that:
• The rear leveling feet are extended to the floor.
• The full weight of the rack rests on the rear leveling feet and front stabilizer feet.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to the rack and equipment, the
racks must be positioned and secured together according to these instructions. Failure to do so
could result in an unstable installation.
WARNING: Components can be very heavy. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage
to the equipment:
• Remove all pluggable power supplies and modules to reduce the weight of the product
before lifting it.
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual
material handling.
• Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the
product is not fastened to the rails. When the component weighs more than 22.5 kg (50 lb),
at least two people must lift the component into the rack together. If the component is
loaded into the rack above chest level, a third person must assist in aligning the rails while
the other two support the component.
• Use caution when installing the component in or removing the component from the rack; it is
unstable when not fastened to the rails.
Additional rack considerations
Consider the following specifications and components, with regard to your specific rack configuration:
• Power—If a UPS is installed, do not exceed its output rating. Be sure to review the installation
instructions provided with each component for important cautions and warnings.
• PDUs—Install PDUs before installing other components.
• Height—The height of the rack and of rack-mountable components is measured in U increments,
where U = 4.5 cm (1.75 in). When you are configuring your rack installation, remember that the total
U measurement of the components you want to install cannot exceed the stated U height of the rack.
• Keyboard—The rack keyboard requires installation of a 1U keyboard drawer rack option kit.
• Monitor—The monitor requires installation of a monitor/utility shelf rack option kit unless you are
using a rack-mountable flat-panel monitor.
About this guide 7
• Server console switch—If a console switch is configured, use the CPU-to-console switch cable
included with the server. The standard distance between the console switch and the keyboard,
monitor, and mouse can vary by 3-, 7-, 12-, 20-, and 40-ft lengths.
NOTE: National electrical regulations governing the installation of building wiring require that
an appropriate cable, meeting fire-safety standards, must be used any time cabling is routed:
• Through an overhead drop-ceiling
• Under raised flooring
• From room to room
• From floor to floor
Be sure that the cable jacket or sleeving is made of material that does not burn easily and does
not exude toxic fumes when exposed to heat. Be sure that the cable you have selected is
appropriate for your installation site. If you require a U.S. plenum-rated (CL2P) cable, contact
your local Hewlett Packard Enterprise authorized reseller to obtain any of the following options:
• 149363-B21-20-foot plenum cable
• 149364-B21-40-foot plenum cable
• Rack baying option kits—The number of baying kits needed to join a series of racks is one less than
the number of racks in the suite. Each baying kit supplies parts to bay two cabinets on 600 mm (24
in) center line spacing.
• Side panels—Only one set of side panels is required for each row of bayed racks.
• Stabilizer kit—A stabilizer kit is either required or recommended, depending on your rack
configuration. There are four stabilizer kit options.
o The standard 600-mm (23.6 in) or 800-mm (31.5 in) front foot is required with deployments of
stand-alone racks. Rack rows with four or more bayed racks, without a single rack-mountable
component exceeding 99.8 kg (220 lb), do not need a stabilizer kit installed.
o The heavy duty 600-mm (23.6 in) or 800-mm (31.5 in) front foot is required when a single
rack-mountable component weighing 99.8 kg (220 lb) or more is installed in a stand-alone rack or
in a rack belonging to a rack row of three or fewer bayed racks.

Preparing the sliding shelf rail assemblies for installation
Each sliding shelf rail assembly consists of a rail with fixed brackets attached to a sliding rail. To construct
the sliding shelf rail assemblies:
1. Hold the flat side of the left rail with fixed brackets facing toward you.
2. Place the sliding rail on top of the left rail with fixed brackets.
3. Extend the inner slides of the sliding rail until the screw holes on the sliding rail and the left rail with
fixed brackets are aligned. Gently push down on the sliding rail to lock it into place.

4.
Secure the rails together with two M4 x 12 flat HD screws and M4 external washers.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the right rail with fixed brackets.
Installing the sliding shelf rail assemblies
WARNING: The rack air duct weighs approximately 22.5 kg (50 lb). To reduce the risk of
personal injury or damage to the equipment:
• Observe local occupational health and safety requirements and guidelines for manual
material handling.
• Use at least two people to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal.
• Use step stools to install the product to the top of the rack. Do not lift the air duct over your

1.
Use the template on the front and rear of the rack frame to mark the attachment points for the sliding
shelf rail assemblies, by measuring from the top of the component installed below the desired
position for the sliding shelf.
IMPORTANT: When using the template on the rear of the rack frame, mark the rack at the
top of the template to help align the next rack component.
2. Align and secure the rear of the left sliding shelf rail assembly to the rear of the rack frame with two
M6 x 12 pan HD screws and M6 external washers.
100 Kilo Sliding Shelf kit 13
3.
Secure the front of the left sliding shelf rail assembly to the front of the rack frame with two M6 x 12
pan HD screws and M6 external washers.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to install the right sliding shelf rail assembly.
Installing the sliding shelf
1. Move the sliding shelf into the rack while tilting the front of the shelf up. Align the rear notches on the
sliding shelf over the rear tabs on the sliding shelf rail assemblies.
2. Push the sliding shelf down onto the rear tabs to align the front notches on the sliding shelf with the
front tabs on the sliding shelf rail assemblies.
3. Lower the front of the sliding shelf over the tabs on the front of the sliding shelf rail assemblies and
push down gently to lock the shelf into place.

4.
Secure the sliding shelf to each sliding rail using one M4 x 12 flat HD screw and M4 external washer
with one M4 nut on the inside of the shelf.
5. Attach the cable management arm to the sliding shelf with the flat side of the cable management arm
mounting bracket flush with the sliding shelf.
6. Secure the cable management arm to the sliding shelf using two M4 x 12 flat HD screws and M4
external washers with two M4 nuts on the inside of the shelf.
NOTE: The cable management arm attaches to the rear of the sliding shelf on either the right
or left side.

7.
Secure the opposite end of the cable management arm to the rack using two M6 x 12 pan HD screws
and M6 external washers.
Installation is complete.
Using the 100 Kilo Sliding Shelf
Use the handle on the front of the sliding shelf to slide it in and out of the rack. When sliding the shelf back
into the rack, there may be resistance. Apply pressure as needed to fully move the shelf into the rack.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to secure all rack mount system components when moving the shelf
out of the rack.

3.
Insert the foam rail gasket into the space between the 19-in mounting rails and the vertical frame on
both sides of the rack, with the closed cell side of the foam rail gasket facing the front of the rack.
4. Gently push the foam rail gasket into the space until it is flush with the vertical frame.
Installing foam rail gaskets between racks
CAUTION: The foam rail gasket must be installed into the rack before two or more racks can
be bayed together. For additional information on baying racks, see the HPE Baying Rack
Option Kit.
If installing the foam rail gasket between racks that have a baying kit installed, the baying bracket must be
removed before the foam rail gasket can be inserted between the racks.
1. Position the racks side by side.
2. Cut the foam rail gasket to fit the size of your rack.
