Replacing a node in a rack: 2145-SV2 and 2145-SA2

Edit online

You might need to replace the node in a rack.

About this task

CAUTION:
  • To lift a node requires at least two people.
  • Install a node only onto the rails supplied with the node.

Procedure

To install an node, complete the following steps.

  1. Align the node with the front of the rack cabinet.
  2. Slide the node into the rack along the rails until the node is fully inserted, as shown in the following figure.
    Note: The rails are not designed to hold an node that is partially inserted. The node must always be in a fully inserted position.

  3. Secure the node with four M5 screws in the holes in the rack mounting flanges on either side of the enclosure.

  4. To install the fascia, complete the following steps:
    1. Hold the fascia by the blue touch points on each end and align the fascia with the front of the node so the clips on the rear of the fascia align with the four mounting posts on the node flanges.
    2. Press the ends of the fascia so that the clips engage with the mounting posts and the back of the fascia is flush against the front panel of the node.

What to do next

If you removed components from the node to lift it, reinstall the components into the slots from which they were removed.
