Rack-mount hardware components

Follow the instructions you received with the rack-mount hardware to install each
component of the system. One rack-unit spacing is recommended between
components for ventilation.

About cabling hardware components

Refer to the system design for your particular system and the appropriate system
diagram in

Chapter 1, System Overview

to identify the hardware components and

cabling for your system. Then turn to the appropriate cabling instructions and connect
cables as required.

Be aware of the following as you cable your system:

• Zoning is not required on the Ethernet switch if five or less clients are active. If

more than five clients are using the system, it is strongly recommended that you
use an isolated switch or a shared, zoned switch to isolate the client-side LAN.
Network traffic from the internal LAN is minimized.

• You may want to postpone cabling to external networks until after configuring

respective IP addresses.
