1 Chassis Description The SC450NX MP server is designed to either stand upright (pedestal mode) or be mounted in a rack (rack mode). Figures 1 and 2 show examples of these configurations. Before operation, you must purchase an adapter kit to configure the server for one of the two modes. If you have already created a pedestal server but now want to install it in a rack, you will also need an adapter kit. If you have not already purchased a kit for your particular task, contact your customer service representative for details. For instructions on mounting your server, see the printed SC450NX MP Server System Rack/Pedestal Kit Installation Guide accompanying your kit. Table 1.
