The detailed installation procedure includes information from online references that are specified in the
overview. You can use the expanded instructions in this procedure to install your expansion unit into a
rack and to cable it to a server.
Before you begin
vThis information is provided in printed form as a list of basic tasks for installing the 57/96 and 14G/30
expansion units. For the most current version, use the online information: Installing the 5796 and
7314-G30 expansion units.
vThis procedure assumes that you are installing the 57/96 or 14G/30 expansion unit into an existing
rack. If the rack is not yet installed, you must first complete the procedure for Installing the rack.
vBefore installing the expansion unit into a rack, read the Rack safety notices.
About this task
To install the 57/96 or 14G/30 expansion unit, complete the following tasks:
1. Unpack the expansion unit as follows:
a. Refer to the kitting list provided with the rack installation kit, and complete a parts inventory.
b. Locate the rack-mounting hardware kit and the system rail assemblies that were included with
your expansion unit.
2. Determine where to install the expansion unit in the rack. Choose one of the following options:
a. If you are installing the system unit into an existing shell, skip this step and continue with step 5
on page 8
b. If you have a rack-mounting template, use it to mark the location.
c. If you do not have a rack-mounting template, perform the following steps to mark the location:
1) Determine where in the rack to place the expansion unit in relation to other system hardware.
As you plan, keep the following steps in mind:
a) Organize larger and heavier units into the lower part of the rack.
b) Plan to install units into the lower part of the rack first.
c) Record the EIA locations in your plan.
Note: The expansion unit is four Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) units high. An EIA unit is
44.50 mm (1.75 in.) in height. The rack contains three mounting holes for each EIA unit of
height. This enclosure, therefore, is 177.8 mm (7 in.) high and covers 12 mounting holes in the
rack.
The following illustration shows a 1-EIA unit and a 4-EIA unit. Depending on the rack
manufacturer, the EIA units might be separated either by color or by a line. The holes along
the EIA strip are not evenly spaced. If your rack has no color or line separation between EIAs,
assume that each EIA section begins where the hole spacing is closest together.
