Overview

The DXiP Rack and Sliding Tray is a rack mounted enclosure that you can fit:

Tools

■ P2 Posidriv and flat-blade screwdrivers;

■ anti-static wrist strap (if handling cards or modules);

■ 3-mm Allen key or T15 Torx tool (optional).

Install the DXiP rack with the sliding tray assembly

You must install the sliding tray in position before you attach the DXiP rack to it.

To fit the optional cable tie bar, see Installing the optional cable tie bar

Set the adjustable arms to the correct depth

1. Remove all packaging.

2. Use the Allen key or Torx tool to undo the bolts on the arms. See Figure 1.

3. Measure the depth between the front and rear cabinet rails.

4. Set both arms to the correct depth and tighten the bolts. See Figure 1.

5. Measure the adjusted length and make sure it is the same on both arms as the

depth measured for the cabinet.

Install the sliding tray

1. Install two caged nuts with a 1U separation (3 holes apart) on each rear rail of

the cabinet at the required location for the rack. See Figure 2.

2. Install two caged nuts with a 1U separation (3 holes apart) on each front rail of

the cabinet at the same height as the rear fixings. See Figure 2.

3. With the tray in the closed position, lift the sliding tray assembly into position.

4. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to attach the right arm to the rear rail and front

rail with four M6 screws into the caged nuts. See Figure 2.

5. Use a flat-blade screwdriver to attach the left arm to the rear and front rail

with four M6 screws into the caged nuts. See Figure 2.

Attach the fixing brackets for a DXiP rack with no sliding tray

When a sliding tray assembly is present, fit the brackets in the flush position.

1. Use the P2 screwdriver to attach the adjustable brackets to the sides of the

rack with the M4 screws in the front four holes of the bracket. See Figure 5.

Figure 2: Install the arms of the sliding tray to the cabinet rails

Adjustable fixing brackets

There are two adjustable fixing brackets, each with six mounting holes, that attach

in one of two positions to the four holes in the side of the DXiP rack:

■ DXiP rack flush with the front of the cabinet (see Figure 3);

■ DXiP recessed (see Figure 4). The brackets are fitted in a forward position.

Install the DXiP rack

1. Press the leaf spring at the front right side to move the tray to the out position.

2. Make sure the tray is locked in position.

3. Lift the rack (with the brackets fitted in the flush position) up and onto the

sliding tray.

4. Make sure the lugs on the bottom of the rack locate with the holes in the tray

and that the back of the rack sits against the stops. See Figure 6.

5. Use the four spring-loaded thumbscrews on the bottom of the sliding tray to

attach the rack to the sliding tray. See Figure 6.

Attach the fixing brackets for a DXiP rack with a sliding tray

Attach the mounting brackets in either position shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4:

■ flush: use the P2 screwdriver to attach the adjustable brackets to the sides

of the rack with the M4 screws in the front four holes of the bracket;

■ recessed: use the P2 screwdriver to attach the adjustable brackets to the

sides of the rack with the M4 screws in the rear four holes of the bracket.

The recessed position sets the rack away from the the front of the cabinet.

This creates additional space for the cables that attach to the front panel.

Install the DXiP rack in the cabinet

1. Install four caged nuts to the front rail of the cabinet (five holes apart) in the

3U space where the DXiP rack will go.

2. Lift the rack, with the adjustable mounting brackets fitted, into place and use a

flat-blade screwdriver to attach the rack to the front rails of the cabinet with

four M6 bolts. See Figure 7.

Installing the optional cable tie bar

The optional cable tie bar is fitted to the underside of the sliding tray on either the

rear or the front sides (or both). There are four screws along each side of the tray.

Install the PSU

The rack comes with one or two Power Supply Units (PSUs) installed. If they are

not installed, do the following:

■ Left-hand side: make sure the handle is on the left with the LED at the top.

■ Right-hand side: make sure the handle is on the right with the LED at the

bottom (and follow the information below in brackets).

For the Split PSU rack variant install the PSU in the same bank as you wish to

populate with rack cards, either on the left, right or both sides.

The instructions below are to fit the bar to the rear of the tray. To fit to the front,

see also Install the optional cable tie bar to the front of the sliding tray

1. Remove the screws from each side at position #4 in Figure 9.

2. Carefully clip the cable tie bar over the screw heads at position #3 in Figure 10.

alarm sound, change the switch position on the DXiP rack. The switch is in the

center of the DXiP backplane (when seen from the front) on version 7.0.0 or later.

1. To enable the alarm sound, set the switch to Enabled.

2. To disable the alarm sound, set the switch to Mute.
