Do not operate devices or handlecables on a stormy day.
To avoid personal injuries, take off your electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap before insertinga power cable.
To avoid personal injuries, arrangeenough persons to carry the devices according to the suggestion on the package.
Before handling devices, wear an ESD suite, ESD gloves, or an ESD wrist strap and take off conductive objects such
as ornaments and watches.
To avoid device damage, ensure thatthe devices are grounded before powering them on.
Do not insert or remove disks or cables duringpower-on of the CSE. When data is being read or written on hard
disks, do not power off the device by cutting off power or holding down the power button for seconds. Otherwise, the
hard disks may have bad tracks and data may be damaged. To power off the device, stop reading and writing data on
the hard disks first and then send a shutdown command through the operating system (OS).

Determining Positions of Devices in the Cabinet
1
Installing Hardware Devices of the CSE
Install the devices of the CSE according to the
specific installationenvironment. The following
describes the general installationplan:
Each cabinet requires two switches and one
KVM device.
You are advised to install the back-end
storage devices in the storage space of 3 U to 22
U.
You are advised to install devices except the
back-end storage devices in the storage space of
32 U to 41 U.
SD-Nodes must be installedbelow C-Nodes.
If the number of C-Nodes exceeds three or the
number of OSN nodes exceeds three, an
expansion cabinet is required.
If an expansion cabinet is used, installthe
back-end storage devices in the storage space of
1 U to 22 U, and C-Nodes in the positions of 32
U to 41 U. Devices in the expansion cabinets
must be parallel to the devices of the same type
in the system cabinet.
The CSE uses a cloud storage system (CSS) as the back-end storage. This section uses the CSS as an example to
explain how to install a CSE system.
Thissection uses the configuration of three C-Nodes in the CSE as an example. The CSE includes two SD-Nodes,
threeC-Nodes, two switches, one KVM device, and the back-end storage (CSS with two MDS nodes and two OSN
nodes).

rails.
Fix the mountingears on the square hole bar
of the cabinet by using M6 panel screws.
Fix the mountingears on the square

The SMS modem is equipped with the 220 V to 12 V transformer. When the equipment
room has only –48 V DC power supply, use the service provider (SP) short message method
instead.
The SMS modem is a small and lightpurchased component. Different types of SMS
modems may require different installationmethods. Use a tie to fix the SMS modem in a free
position near the SD-Node in the cabinet so that you can connect cables of the SD-Node
conveniently.
Tie the SMS modem securely to prevent it from falling off and ensure that the SMS modem
does not affect the wiring of other devices or opening/closing of the cabinet door.

7 Installing a C-Node
The installation procedure of a C-Node is the same as that of an SD-Node. Install the C-Nodes by referring to the
installationprocedure of an SD-Node.
A C-Node weighs 29 kg in its full configuration, so at least two persons are required to mount the C-Node into the
cabinet.
After the previous devices have been installed,you are advised to install filler panels to cover empty positions to
ensure good ventilation. If an SMS modem or a remote modem is used, install the modem before installingfiller panels.
6 Installing an SD-Node
An SD-Node weighs 29 kg in its full configuration,
so at least two persons are required to mount the SD-
Node into the cabinet.
To avoid hard disk vibration, push the SD-Node into
the cabinet gently and secure it.
Slide the SD-Node into the cabinet
along the guide rails.
Fix the device in the cabinet using
two M6 screws.
To keep the gravity balance of the cabinet, you are advised to installdevices of the CSE from bottom to top.

Connecting Cables
The remote modem is equipped with a 220 V to 12 V transformer, which connects to an external power supply.
The remote modem is a small and light purchased component. Different types of remote modems may require
different installationmethods. Use a tie to fix the remote modem in a free position near the SD-Node in the cabinet
so that you can connect cables of the SD-Node conveniently.
The remote modem is connected to an external power supply instead of the cabinet power supply. Ensure that the
remote modem does not affect the cabling of other devices or opening/closing of the cabinet door.
Because the SD-Node provides only one serial port, you cannot connect an SMS modem and a remote modem at
thesame time.
9 Installing a Remote Modem
Before connecting cables of devices, make sure that the cabinet is securely grounded.
Before connecting other types of cable, ground the devices by referring to the following figure.

2 Connecting Network Cables of the CSE
Network cables are delivered with labels that describe the connections. Connect the network cables by referring
to the labels.
Before connecting the network cables, make sure that the devices have been grounded securely.
Thisfigure shows the network cable connections among devices of the CSE. Power cable connections and ground
cable connections are not illustrated.
