Site preparation, unpacking the DC SAN Director IMPORTANT: See "Regulatory compliance and safety notices" on page 229 for important safety guidelines before setting up the DC SAN Director. The following steps are required to ensure correct installation and operation: 1. Provide a space that is 14 rack units (14U) high, 61.29 cm (24.09 in.) deep, and 43.74 cm (17.22 in.). 1U is equal to 4.45 cm (1.75 in.) 2. Plan to install the DC SAN Director with the non-port side facing the aisle. The DC SAN Director can be installed facing either direction, if serviceability and cooling requirements are met. 3. Plan for cable management before installing the chassis (see "Managing cables" on page 43). Cables can be managed in a variety of ways, such as by routing cables below the chassis, to either side of the chassis, through cable channels on the sides of the cabinet, or by using patch panels. 30 DC SAN Director Installation
