Figure 28. Fascia components on the expansion enclosure
Note: When the expansion enclosure is shipped, the 4U and 1U fascia are not installed. You must install
them as part of the initial installation process.
Procedure
Attach the front (4U) fascia
1. Align the front 4U fascia with the enclosure so that the thumbscrews go through the holes on each
side. As Figure 29 on page 43 shows, this action aligns the screw holes on the back of the fascia with
the screw holes on the front flange of the enclosure.
2. Replace the four screws to reattach the 4U fascia. Secure the screws from the back of the flange and
into the rear of the fascia. Each side of the 4U fascia contains two screws.
Attach the bottom (1U) fascia
3. Reattach the bottom 1U fascia that covers the power supply units (PSUs). Align the fascia with the
enclosure and gently push it until it clicks into place on the chassis, as shown in Figure 29 on page
43.
Align the tab on each side of the 1U fascia with the corresponding slots on the enclosure flange. Pins
on each flange must also align with a hole in each side of the 1U fascia.
