Preparation for Installation
Notice
1
This document describes how to install the server, how to connect the power cables and signal cables, and
how to check the connections when the Huawei RH2288H V3, and RH5885H V3 server act as the server of
eSight.
The power cable connection and signal cable connection that are detailed in this document are written
according to the standard configuration. If the actual on-site installation requirements are inconsistent with this
document, handle the requirements according to the actual situation. Unless otherwise specified, the models of
the corresponding floating nuts and panel screws are M6.
All figures in this manual are for reference only and may differ from actual devices which prevail.
This document does not describe the installation of the cabinet. For details on the cabinet installation, refer to
the installation guide of the cabinet.
Before installing devices in the cabinet, take appropriate antistatic measures to prevent any electrostatic discharge of the
human body from damaging sensitive components.
Do not install or remove a live power cable. Before installing or removing the power cable, turn off the power switch.
Server Specifications and Installation Requirements

Installing the Server
1 Installing the Server on Adjustable Guide Rails
(Applies to All Cabinets)
1
•Each server must be supported by guide rails. Stacking one server on another will cause server damage.
•Guide rails are divided into left and right guide rails (labeled with L and R). A pair of guide rails should be installed
together and cannot be installed reversely.
You can install the server to different cabinets by adjusting the length of guide rails:
• RH2288H V3 server: distance between front and rear mounting rails: 543.5-848.5 mm
• RH5885H V3 server: distance between front and rear mounting rails: 550-860 mm
The following tools are required during the installation:
• M3-M6 Phillips screwdriver
•Electrostatic discharge (ESD) gloves
Install adjustable guide rails by referring to the installation guide.
At least two persons lift the server on two sides and move it to the cabinet. Place the server on the guide
rails and push it in to the cabinet.
•The server is heavy, and two or three persons are required to carry the PC server.
•If disks are removed before transportation, record the slot of each disk, and install the disks after installing the
server. Otherwise, the system with pre-installed operating system may fail to start.
•When pushing the server into a cabinet, adjust the server location behind the cabinet to prevent the server from
hitting mounting bars.
When the two mounting ears on the server contact the mounting bards of the cabinet, tighten the captive
screws on the mounting ears to secure the server.

5
Installing the Server on L-shaped Guide Rails
(Applies Only to a Huawei Cabinet)
2
a. Fasten one end of a floating nut to the installation hole in a
guide rail at the front of the rack.
b. Fasten the upper end of the floating nut to the mounting bar at
the front of the rack by using the floating nut mounting bar.
a. Place a guide rail horizontally in the planned position and keep
the guide rail contact with the mounting bars in the rack.
b. Tighten the screws.
c. Install another guide rail on the opposite side by using the same
method.
The following tools are required during the installation:
•M3-M6 Phillips screwdriver
•Floating nut mounting bar
•Electrostatic discharge (ESD) gloves
•Each server must be supported by guide rails. Stacking one server on another will cause server damage.
•L-shaped guide rails can only be used in a Huawei cabinet. L-shaped guide rails are delivered with Huawei racks. No
L-shaped guide rails are delivered with the server.
Install floating nuts.
Install L-shaped guide rails.
Floating nuts provide tapped holes for the M6 screws used to secure a server.
At least two persons lift the server on two sides and move it to the
cabinet. Place the server on the guide rails and push it in to the
cabinet.
•The server is heavy, and two or three persons are required to carry the PC
server.
•If disks are removed before transportation, record the slot of each disk,
and install the disks after installing the server. Otherwise, the system with
pre-installed operating system may fail to start.
•When pushing the server into a cabinet, adjust the server location behind
the cabinet to prevent the server from hitting mounting bars.
4 When the two mounting ears on the server contact the mounting bards of the cabinet, tighten the captive
screws on the mounting ears to secure the server.

Installing the Power Cables
Connecting an AC Power Cable
1
•Do not connect the power cables when the power-supply device is powered on. Instead, switch off the power-supply
device to avoid injuries.
•To protect devices and personnel, use the matching power cables.
Connect the one end of the AC power cable
to the power port on the PSU of server.
Insert the other end of the AC power cable
into the AC power socket on the rack. The
AC power socket is horizontally secured on
the rear of the rack. Select the jacks on the
nearest socket for connection based on the
installation plan.
Bind the power cable to the cable trough
using cable ties.

7
Connecting a DC Power Cable (RH5885H V3 Server)
2
Do not connect the power cables when the power-supply device is powered on. Instead, switch off the power-supply
device to avoid injuries.
a. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screw
in the ground hole on the rear of the server, and
connect one end of the ground cable to the
removed screw. Install the screw in the ground
hole and tighten the screw.
b. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screw
on the ground bar in the rack and connect the
other end of the ground cable to the removed
screw. You are advised to choose the screw
nearest to the server. Install the screw in the
ground bar and tighten the screw.
Connect the OT terminal of the negative electrode
to the terminal NEG(-) of the PSU, and connect
the OT terminal of the positive electrode to the
terminal RTN(+) of the PSU. Then tighten the
screws.
Install the protective cover for the PSU,
and tighten the screws to secure the
protective cover.
Connect the ground cable.
Bind the power cable to the cable trough
using cable ties.
