IMPORTANT:
See “Regulatory compliance and safety notices” on page 229 for important safety guidelines before
setting up your DC04 SAN Director.
The following steps are required to ensure correct installation and operation:
1. Provide a space that is 9 rack units (9U) high, 61.19 cm (24.09 in.) deep, and 43.74 cm (17.22
in.) wide. 1U is equal to 4.45 cm (1.75 in.)
2. The DC04 SAN Director can be installed facing in either direction, provided that serviceability
and cooling requirements are met.
3. Plan for cable management before installing the chassis.
Cables can be managed in a variety of ways, such as by routing cables below the chassis, to
either side of the chassis, through cable channels on the sides of the cabinet, or by using patch
panels (see “Managing cables” on page 139).
