All Exalogic machines use the same rack, and have the same space requirements. The space requirements are as follows:
Height: 1998 mm (78.66 inches)
Width: 600 mm with side panels (23.62 inches)
Depth (front door handle to rear door handle): 1200 mm (47.24 inches)
Depth (doors removed): 1112 mm (43.78 inches)
The minimum ceiling height for the cabinet is 2300 mm (90 inches), measured from the true floor or raised floor, whichever is higher. An additional 914 mm (36 inches) is for top clearance. The space above the cabinet and its surroundings must not restrict the movement of cool air between the air conditioner and the cabinet, or the movement of hot air coming out of the top of the cabinet.
Before your Exalogic machine arrives, ensure that the receiving area is large enough for the package. The following are the package dimensions for the Exalogic machine:
Shipping height: 2159 mm (85 inches)
Shipping width: 1219 mm (48 inches)
Shipping depth: 1575 mm (62 inches)
For the shipping weight, see the data sheets at the following location:

If your loading dock meets the height and ramp requirements for a standard freight carrier truck, then you can use a pallet jack to unload the rack. If the loading dock does not meet the requirements, then you must provide a standard forklift or other means to unload the rack. You can also request that the rack be shipped in a truck with a lift gate.
When the Exalogic machine arrives, leave the rack in its shipping packaging until it arrives in its installation site. Use a conditioned space to remove the packaging material to reduce particles before entering the data center. The entire access route to the installation site should be free of raised-pattern flooring that can cause vibration.
Allow enough space for unpacking it from its shipping cartons. Ensure that there is enough clearance and clear pathways for moving the Exalogic machine from the unpacking location to the installation location. Table 2-1 lists the access route requirements for the Exalogic machine.
