EMC Rails and Enclosures (CX4 Series Storage Systems) Field Installation Guide
Installing a 1U SPS tray and SPS units in a cabinet
Installing the rails in the cabinet
This section describes how to mount the rails in the cabinet. 
1. After you decide where in the cabinet you want to install the SPS 
tray, find the unoccupied 1U section on the rear channels. We 
suggest that you install the SPS tray immediately above the SPE, if 
possible.
2. From the front of the cabinet, insert the alignment pin on one 
mounting rail assembly into the middle hole of the selected 1U 
space on a rear channel. Figure 4 shows the correct channel holes 
for the alignment pins.

Refer to Figure 5 on page 9 as you perform steps 3 and 4.
3. Extend the rail to the front cabinet channel. Align the holes of the 
front rail flange to the inside of the channel, ensure that the rail is 
level, and then install two M5 x 16-mm Phillips securing screws 
in the top and bottom holes, as shown in Figure 5. 
Note: Leave the screws slightly loose to allow for adjustment after you 
install the tray. Do not insert a screw in the middle hole yet.
