DANGER
v Plug power cords from devices in the rack cabinet into electrical outlets
that are located near the rack cabinet and are easily accessible.
v Each rack cabinet might have more than one power cord. Be sure to
disconnect all power cords in the rack cabinet before servicing any
device in the rack cabinet.
v Install an emergency-power-off switch if more than one power device
(power distribution unit or uninterruptible power supply) is installed in
the same rack cabinet.
v Connect all devices installed in a rack cabinet to power devices installed
in the same rack cabinet. Do not plug a power cord from a device
installed in one rack cabinet into a power device installed in a different
rack cabinet.
v Do not run cables in front of or behind other devices that will prevent service
access to those devices.
v Do not bend fiber-optic cable beyond its limited specifications.
v Label all cables so that they are clearly distinguishable from each other.
v When installing devices mounted on slide rails, such as servers:
– Run the cables neatly along equipment cable-management arms and secure
the cables to the arms using provided cable straps.
– Leave enough extra cable so that the device can fully extend without straining
the cables.
– Secure the cables so that the device can retract without pinching or cutting
the cables.
v When installing devices mounted on fixed rails:
– Run the cables neatly along the posts or side rails in the rack cabinet out of
the way of other installed devices.
– Secure the cables with the provided cable straps.
v Ensure that the cables cannot be pinched or cut by the rack cabinet rear door or
other devices.
v Run internal cables that connect devices in adjoining rack cabinets through the
large openings provided in the rear of the rack cabinet.
v Run external cables through the bottom of the rack cabinet or through the
removable section in the top of the rack cabinet.
Cable-management brackets
If your rack cabinet comes with cable-management brackets, you must remove the
indicated screw before you can remove a filler panel from the rack cabinet. You can
install the bracket FRU on either type of rack cabinet. If you install these brackets
on a rack cabinet that did not originally come with them, you cannot use a screw to
secure the filler panels unless you also install the new filler panels.

Moving a rack cabinet
Fully populated NetBAY25 and NetBAY42 Rack cabinets have been evaluated and
found to meet UL-1950, CSA-950, and IEC-950 stability test standards. Because
these standards apply only to a rack cabinet in an installed location, IBM enforces
additional standards to ensure stability when rolling the rack cabinet on its casters.
See Table 1 for empty and fully populated rack cabinet weights.

Empty 81 kg (177 lb) 117 kg (258 lb) 92 kg (202 lb)
Populated 466 kg (1027 lb) 763 kg (1678 lb) 737 kg (1622 lb)
When you move a rack cabinet, adhere to the following standards:

Statement 11:
CAUTION:
Removing components from the upper positions in the rack cabinet improves
rack stability during relocation. Follow these general guidelines whenever you
relocate a populated rack cabinet within a room or building:
v Reduce the weight of the rack cabinet by removing equipment starting at
the top of the rack cabinet. When possible, restore the rack cabinet to the
configuration of the rack cabinet as you received it. If this configuration is
not known, you must do the following:
– Remove all devices in the 22U position and above.
– Ensure that the heaviest devices are installed in the bottom of the rack
cabinet.
– Ensure that there are no empty U-levels between devices installed in the
rack cabinet below the 22U level.
v If the rack cabinet you are relocating is part of a suite of rack cabinets,
detach the rack cabinet from the suite.
v Inspect the route that you plan to take to eliminate potential hazards.
v Verify that the route that you choose can support the weight of the loaded
rack cabinet. Refer to the documentation that comes with your rack cabinet
for the weight of a loaded rack cabinet.
v Verify that all door openings are at least 760 x 2083 mm (30 x 82 in.)
v Ensure that all devices, shelves, drawers, doors, and cables are secure.
v Ensure that the four leveling pads are raised to their highest position.
v Ensure that there is no stabilizer bracket installed on the rack cabinet.
v Do not use a ramp inclined at more than ten degrees.
v Once the rack cabinet is in the new location, do the following:
– Lower the four leveling pads.
– Install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet.
– If you removed any devices from the rack cabinet, repopulate the rack
cabinet from the lowest position to the highest position.
If a long distance relocation is required, restore the rack cabinet to the
configuration of the rack cabinet as you received it. Pack the rack cabinet in
the original packaging material, or equivalent. Also, lower the leveling pads to
raise the casters off of the pallet and strap the rack cabinet to the pallet.
