Instruction Manual

WARNING! To prevent bodily injury, please ensure that the rack is installed in a

structurally sound environment with a level oor and that all hardware has been

assembled securely, and checked for stability before loading equipment. When

installing equipment into the rack, start from the bottom of the rack rst and move

upwards, keeping the heaviest equipment at the bottom to avoid a situation where

the rack becomes top-heavy.

Introduction

The Rack cabinet is a high quality, lockable, secure and dust-reduced environment for

rackmount servers and network equipment. This sturdy, space-saving unit is made

from extruded aluminum for an appealing appearance. A standard lockable smoked

plexiglass see-through front door and solid aluminum rear door provides quick

access to equipment. The internal front and rear mounting rails are completely depth

adjustable to t virtually any piece of equipment. A standard roof-mounted triple

motor AC fan unit and high-ow air lter below the rear door provide up to 300 CFM

of bottom to top air ow through the cabinet, removing the heat produced by the

enclosed equipment. In addition to the standard equipment that are options on most

other cabinets, the Rack cabinet also has a full compliment of optional accessories

like xed shelving, storage drawers, keyboard drawers, front panel spacer plates and

slide-out shelves.

Installation

Posts

Depending on the size of the device you are mounting or the type of mounting

brackets that are used, you may want to move the posts forward or back, or replace

the cabinets posts. To do this, simply remove the front and back posts from the xed

rails by removing the screws which secure them to the rails. Move the nuts to the

location where you would like the post to go. Align the holes on the posts with the

nuts and secure the posts to the rails.

would like the device to go. To insert the cage nut press on either side of the nut.

Insert the clamps into the hole and release the nut. Screw the device into place.

2. If your device has mounting brackets with hooks, just hook the bracket to the

position where you want your device to go.

Instruction Manual

Stabilizer Feet

Though each cabinet is equipped with wheels for easy movement, there may be times

when you would prefer that the cabinet not be mobile. There are two adjustable legs

on the back of the cabinet. To lower them, use a wrench and turn them until the legs

are lowered enough that the wheels are slightly o the ground.

Front Legs

There are two leveler legs on the front of the cabinet. We suggest that they be used to

ensure that the cabinet does not tip forward when a heavy drawer is pulled out. To do

this, grab the end of the legs and pull them towards you.
