Installing the Fabric Interconnect F1-15 in a 4-Post Rack

Language:

This section documents how to install the Fabric Interconnect F1-15 in a 4-post equipment rack.

The procedure in this section documents installing a Fabric Interconnect F1-15 by using the standard rail kit that comes with the Fabric Interconnect. The rail kit is useful as a “rack helper” to temporarily hold the chassis in place in the rack while attaching rack-mount hardware, inserting screws, and so on. You can leave the rail kit in the rack if you choose, but be aware that doing so will consume rack units that could be devoted to additional equipment.

Note - The topics documented in this section are for stand-alone Fabric Interconnect deployments only. The Fabric Interconnect is orderable as a complete, engineered system called the Oracle Virtual Compute Appliance (VCA), which has different contents and installation procedures. If you are deploying a stand-alone (non-VCA) Fabric Interconnect, continue to use this documentation. If you are deploying a VCA Fabric Interconnect, do not use this documentation. Instead, use the documentation that accompanied your VCA shipment.
