Rack types

The FT server can be installed in any of the standard 19 inch video or EIA racks listed below.

A standard 19 inch video rack with 0.281 round untapped holes with universal spacing requires
the installation of a front adapter flange and a front plate included in the accessory kit.

A standard 19 inch video rack with #10-32UNF tapped holes requires the installation of a front
adapter flange and a rear adapter flange included in the accessory kit.

A standard EIA IT rack with square holes uses threaded core nuts to attach the screws hold to
the unit in place. No adapters are required.

Procedures for all three types of rack mounting are described in this manual. Use the procedure that
matches your rack type.
