2.3 Installing the Chassis
This section provides information on installing the chassis into a rack unit with the rails
provided.
The Toolless Rail System
The SC802 chassis uses a toolless rail system that does not need any hand tool to mount
the rails and chassis into the server rack
. The toolless rail system has locking mechanisms
on each end of the rails that latch and lock onto the square mounting holes which are located
on the front and back of the server rack. When these rails are secure, the chassis' left and
right sides will simply rest on the inner rail 'lip' of these rails, which can be freely pulled out
or pushed in as needed. The chassis is then secured to the rack by two thumbscrews.
Insert the mounting ends of the rails into
the square mounting holes in 1U space
on the rack post
