Racking your pod
We recommend two individuals are present in order to safely rack your Inevidesk pod(s) into your cabinet.
If you prefer video format, you can review the manifacturer's installation demonstration by watching the video below:
Otherwise please read on for written instructions.
Preparing your pod for mounting
Start by removing the pod and rails from the packaging.
The inside of each rail is marked L and R for left and right, respectively. Each rail has a front and back: the front includes a retractable flap, and the back has a spring-loaded fin. These features lock the rail into the rack.
Begin with the left rail. Pull back the retractable flap at the front and line up the positioning pins with the square holes in the rack. Once the pins are fully seated, release the flap to lock the rail in place.
Move to the back of the rail and push the positioning pins into the rack. As you do this, the fin will lift slightly and then snap back down, securing the rear of the rail.
Repeat the same process for the right rail.
With both rails mounted, pull the inner rails fully forward. You’ll see a series of holes - these line up with the pins on each side of the pod.
Working as a pair, lift the pod and hold it just above the rails. Tilt the rear of the pod slightly and drop the first pin into the matching rail hole. Then lower the rest of the pod, guiding the remaining pins into position. Keep hold of the pod until all pins are fully seated.
Once aligned, slide the pod in until it stops (roughly halfway). Finally, lift the locking fin on the outside of each inner rail and push the pod all the way into the cabinet.
Connecting your pod once mounted
We recommend that you connect the pod for redundant power and connectivity.
Begin by connecting one or both of the power supply units (PSUs) to a power source. Following that, proceed by connecting one or both of the 10Gbps RJ45 ethernet ports to your switch.
Optionally, you can also dedicate a connection for the management (MGMT) port. This allows our support team to access the pod via the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) for troubleshooting and support.
