RE SERIES_ RevA 3/5/2022v20Combining (Baying) EnclosuresWARNING: Combining enclosures is not a substitute for stabilizing the enclosures. Each enclosure in a bay of combined enclosures requiresthe same stabilizing measures as a standalone enclosure.1 Arrange the enclosures in the correct position for baying.2 Each enclosure includes 4 baying brackets A that correspond to baying connection points B onthe adjoining enclosure. The baying connection points already contain screws. Remove the screwfrom each baying connection point in the adjoining enclosure.3 Loosen the screw in each baying bracket and turn each bracket 90 degrees toward the adjoiningenclosure, aligning each bracket with the corresponding baying connection point on the adjoiningenclosure.4 Connect each bracket to the adjoining enclosure using the screws you removed in step 2, but donot tighten the screws completely. Adjust the position of the enclosures as needed. If you want thecenters of the enclosures to be 24 inches (61 cm) apart/29.9 inches (76 cm),use the outsidehole of the bracket C . If you want the centers to be 60 cm (23.6 inches) apart/75 cm (29.5inches), use the middle hole of the bracket D . After connecting all brackets and confirming thatthe enclosures do not need further adjustment, tightenall screws.Note: You may wish to remove the doors from the enclosures before combining them. Reinstallingthe doors afterward is optional. Remove the interior side panels before baying enclosures if youwish to enable access between enclosures.WARNING: Do not install equipment until you have stabilized the enclosure. Install heavier equipment first and install it toward the bottom ofthe enclosure. Install equipment starting from the bottom of the enclosure and proceeding toward the top of the enclosure - never the reverse.If using sliding equipment rails, be careful when extending the rails. Do not extend more than one set of sliding equipment rails at one time.Avoid extending sliding equipment rails near the top of the enclosure.Note: The square holes at the middle of each rack unit are numbered and also include a small notch to aid identification. A single rack unit includes thespace occupied by the numbered hole and the holes directly above and below.341B2252423 1 Rack Unit 232425
