CAUTION:

Always plan the rack installation so that the heaviest item is on the bottom of the rack.

To install the server in an HP, Compaq-branded, Telco, or a third-party rack:

1.

Install the server and cable management arm option into the rack. See the documentation that ships with

the Quick Deploy Rail System.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or damage to the equipment, do not plug

telephone or telecommunications connectors into RJ-45 connectors.

Connect peripheral devices to the server. For information on identifying connectors, see "Rear panel
components (on page

Connect the power cord to the server.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:

Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety

feature.

Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all

times.

Unplug the power cord from the power supply to disconnect power to the equipment.

Do not route the power cord where it can be walked on or pinched by items placed against it.
Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical outlet, and the point where the cord extends from

the server.
