28 Installing the DC Chassis

Installing the Equipment Rack Shelf Bar

The rack shelf bar (Figure 7) enables you to easily position the chassis into the rack and provides the unit

additional stability. The E1200i DC system must be mounted in a rack that is permanently secured to the

floor.

To install a equipment rack shelf bar:

Standard Front Chassis Mounting

Install the E1200i DC system after you secure the equipment rack shelf bar. Load the chassis in the lower

half of an empty rack to avoid a top-heavy rack (Figure 8).

Step Task

1. Determine the chassis mounting location in the equipment rack.

2. Orient the bar with the arrows pointing upward. The smooth side of the bar should face outward.

3. Attach the bar to the equipment rack brackets using the mounting screws provided by the

manufacturer.

Note: Force10 Networks recommends that you install and operate the E1200i DC system in a

standard 19-inch or 23-inch equipment rack.

Warning: Do not remove the Front shipping Cover during the initial installation process. The cover

provides front handles to assist in lifting and prevents damage to the internal framework and EMI

seals.
