Preparing the Rack for Component Installation
Multiple Racks
Increasing space and stability, 10000 Series racks can be bayed together by installing
the Rack Option Baying Kit or the Rack Option Offset Baying Kit, depending on the
series, height, and depth.
•
Rack Option Baying Kit—Joins multiple racks of the same series, height,
and depth.
•
Rack Option Offset Baying Kit—Joins multiple racks of different series with
the same height but different depths.
Observe the following tips when using multiple-rack configurations:
•
Stabilizing feet are optional with bayed racks.
•
Modified feet should be used with bayed racks.
•
The number of baying kits needed is one less than the total number of racks.
•
Position and install either baying option kit before populating the racks with
components.
•
Racks from different series can be bayed together as long as they are the
same height.
Server/Storage vs. Switching Configurations
The 10000 Series rack offers interchangeable front and rear doors that allow the rack
to be used in server/storage or switching applications. The 10842 rack arrives in a
server/storage configuration with internal mounting rails that are front-justified,
providing the customer greater room in the rear of the rack for cable management.
