Two-Post Center-Mount Rack Kit
Installation
This procedure provides instructions for installing a Dell PowerApp 100 appliance in a
two-post open-frame relay rack, such as those found in telecommunications equip-
ment facilities. Both 3-inch and 6-inch wide two-post racks are accommodated.
The two-post open-frame relay rack must be properly secured to the floor, to the ceil-
ing or upper wall, and where applicable, to adjacent racks, using floor and wall
fasteners and bracing specified or approved by the rack manufacturer or by industry
standards. Refer to the two-post open-frame relay rack manufacturer’s installation
documentation for precautionary warnings and information before attempting this
installation.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to install the PowerApp system into a two-post
open-frame relay rack that has not been securely anchored in place. Dam-
age to the system and personal injury may result.
Refer to “Safety Instructions” at the front of this document for additional safety infor-
mation regarding rack installation.
