Connecting external devices If you install an optional adapter that the server supports, you can attach external devices to the server. To attach an external device, complete the following steps: 1. Read the safety information that begins on page v, "Installation guidelines" on page 19, and the documentation that comes with the device. 2. Turn off the server and all attached devices. 3. Follow the instructions that come with the device to prepare it for installation and to connect it to the server. Note: If you are attaching an external device, see the documentation that comes with the device for information about cabling. Installing the server in a rack An optional Tower-to-Rack Kit is needed to convert the server from a tower model to a rack model. You can then install the server in a rack cabinet. To order a Tower-to-Rack Kit for the server, contact your IBM marketing representative or authorized reseller. 48 xSeries 206m Types 8485 and 8490: User's Guide
