Safety Guidelines
Before you remove a server cover, observe these safety guidelines:
• Only technically qualified personnel should integrate the server.
• Turn off all peripheral devices connected to the server.
• Turn off the server using the push-button on/off power switch on the front panel of the server,
and unplug the AC power cord from the power supply or wall outlet.
• Label and disconnect all peripheral cables attached to the I/O panel on the back of the server.
• Provide some electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap
attached to chassis ground of the server—any unpainted metal surface—when handling
components.
Server Precautions
WARNINGS
SERVER POWER ON/OFF: The push-button on/off power switch on the
front panel of the server does not
power from the server, you must unplug the AC power cord from either
the power supply or wall outlet.
current, and energy levels are present inside the power supply enclosure.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside it; servicing should only be
done by technically qualified personnel.
AZARDOUS CONDITIONS—DEVICES AND CABLES: Hazardous electrical
H
conditions may be present on power, telephone, and communication
cables. Turn off the server and disconnect telecommunications systems,
networks, modems, and the power cord attached to the server before
opening it. Otherwise, personal injury or equipment damage can result.
A
VOID INJURY: To avoid personal injury when unpacking the server,
use only a mechanical assist unit to lift it off the shipping pallet.
Use only a hand-truck or other mechanical assist unit to move the server
from one location to another.

CAUTIONS
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) AND ESD PROTECTION: ESD can
damage disk drives, add-in boards, and other components. This server can
withstand normal levels of environmental ESD while hot-swapping SCSI
hard disk drives. However, we recommend doing all procedures in this
manual only at an ESD-protected workstation. If one is not available, you
can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap
attached to chassis ground of the server—any unpainted metal surface—when handling components.
ANDLING BOARDS AND MODULES: Boards and modules can be extremely
H
sensitive to ESD and always require careful handling. After removing a
board or module from its protective wrapper or from the server, place it
component-side up on a nonconductive, static-free surface. If you place the
baseboard on a conductive surface, the battery leads can short out. If they
do, this will result in a loss of CMOS data and will drain the battery. Do not
slide a board or module over any surface.
ERVER COOLING AND AIRFLOW: Operating the server with the covers
S
removed can damage the server components. For proper cooling and airflow,
always replace the covers before turning on the server.
Equipment Rack Precautions
WARNINGS
ANCHOR THE EQUIPMENT RACK: The equipment rack must be anchored
to an unmovable support to prevent it from falling over when one or
more servers are extended in front of it on slide assemblies. The anchors
must be able to withstand a force of up to 113 kg (250 lbs.). You must
also consider the weight of any other device installed in the rack.
AIN AC POWER DISCONNECT: You are responsible for installing an
M
AC power disconnect for the entire rack unit. This main disconnect
must be readily accessible, and it must be labeled as controlling power to
the entire unit, not just to the server(s).
G
ROUNDING THE RACK INSTALLATION: To avoid the potential for an
electrical shock hazard, you must include a third wire safety grounding
conductor with the rack installation. If server power cords are plugged
into AC outlets that are part of the rack, then you must provide proper
grounding for the rack itself. If server power cords are plugged into
wall AC outlets, the safety grounding conductor in each power cord
provides proper grounding only for the server. You must provide
additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed
in it.
6 Intel SC5100 and SC5200 Rack Kit Installation Guide
OVERCURRENT PROTECTION: The server is designed for an AC line
voltage source with up to 20 amperes of overcurrent protection. If the
power system for the equipment rack is installed on a branch circuit
with more than 20 amperes of protection, you must provide
supplemental protection for the server.
CAUTIONS
Temperature: The operating temperature of the server, when installed in an
equipment rack, must not go below 5 °C (41 °F) or rise above 35 °C (95 °F).
Extreme fluctuations in temperature can cause a variety of problems in your
server.
Ventilation: The equipment rack must provide sufficient airflow to the front
of the server to maintain proper cooling. Depending on the configuration of
the server, it must also include ventilation sufficient to exhaust between
1750 BTU's and 3000 BTU’s per hour. The rack selected and the ventilation
provided must be suitable to the environment in which the server will be
used.

Rack Installation Procedures
This manual describes the procedure to convert an Intel® SC5100 or SC5200 server chassis from
the pedestal configuration to the rack configuration.
In the following procedures, chassis directions (top, bottom, left, right) refer to a chassis in rack
orientation when you are facing the front of the chassis. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at
the beginning of this manual.
Kit Contents
• Two unpainted access covers (SC5100 and SC5200 Base use the access cover without a fan
access door; SC5200 HSRP uses the access cover with a fan access door)
• One unpainted left side cover with rack mounting holes and one right side cover with rack
mounting holes
• One unpainted bottom cover
• Rack bezel assembly
• Bag of mounting hardware
• This manual
• Rail kit
• Rack handles
• 5 ¼ bay reorientation bracket

NOTE
Your chassis is designed to be compatible with the EIA-310-d rack standard.
Be sure to select a rack cabinet enclosure that is EIA-310-d compliant. For
additional compatibility and rack cabinet selection information, see
