Document purpose
This installation guide provides instructions for installing the hardware associated with PowerProtect systems. Systems are
shipped to the customer site either pre-installed in a rack (factory-racked) or as separate components to install in an existing
rack at the site (field-installed). This guide provides instructions for both types of installation.
This document is intended for customers or Dell EMC Support personnel who are qualified to install PowerProtect systems.
Field-installed systems

cable, and configure the system.

Factory-racked systems are pre-installed in the rack with the cables already connected. Follow the instructions in Configure
