4 Hardware Installation

Install the S60 chassis in a rack or cabinet

Attach mounting brackets

The S60 is shipped with mounting brackets (rack ears) and required screws for rack or cabinet installation.

The brackets are enclosed in a package with the chassis. .

Follow these steps to attach the brackets to the chassis:

Note: Force10 recommends attaching the brackets to the front of the chassis, on the PSU side. This

provides the greatest weight support for the chassis in the rack or cabinet, and is in compliance with

Bellcore Zone 4 earthquake requirements.

Step Task

1 Take the brackets and screws out of their packaging.

2 Attach the brackets to the rear sides of the chassis, using four screws for each bracket. Attach the

bracket so that the “ear” faces to the rear and the outside of the chassis.
