87 Double-Wide Modules Most modules in the AB7000 fit into single-wide bays. The InfiniBand module and some other modules however (such as the 10GbE module), require a double-wide bay and can only be installed in such a bay created by combining the two right most bays. The enclosure's module bays are designed to be easily modified from single to double-wide by following the procedures below. Setting up a Double-Wide Bay Modifying an Enclosure's Module Bays for Double-wide Modules 1. Remove the four screws that secure the inner enclosure to the main enclosure. Slide the inner enclosure outward, depressing the locking tabs on both sides to pull it completely out. 2. Remove any single-wide modules that are occupying the bays you wish to modify to a double-wide bay. 3. In the module bay you wish to expand to double wide, remove the two screws that secure the center support to the inner enclosure then take out the center support. See Figure 2-53, Step 1 for details. 4. Remove the two screws from the underside of each of the two horizontal spacer (as shown in Figure 2-52). See Figure 2-53, Step 2 for details. 5. Using four screws, install the long horizontal spacer to the same space where the two short spacer werse removed. See Figure 2-54, Step 3 for details. 6. You can now install a double-wide module into the bay. See Figure 2-54, Step 4 for details. Note: This procedure describes modifying two right most singlewide bays located at the top of the inner enclosure. The same procedure applies to the two right most single bays located at the bottom of the enclosure, but note that the horizontal spacer in the bottom bays use a guide pin and are not interchangeable with the upper bay spacers (see Figure 2-52 for details).
