10 Rack Installation Guide

To mark the rack, perform the following steps:

Place a mark (or tape) on the rack's front vertical rails where you want to locate the bottom of the

system you are installing in the rack. The bottom of each 1-U space is at the middle of the narrowest

metal area between holes (marked with a horizontal line on some rack cabinets—see Figure 1-3).

Place a mark 88 mm (3.5 inches) above the original mark you made (or count up three holes in a rack

that meets EIA-310 standards) and mark the rack's front vertical rails with a felt-tipped pen or masking

tape (if you counted holes, place a mark just above the top hole). This mark or piece of tape indicates

where the system's upper edge will be located on the vertical rails (see Figure 1-3).
