This guide provides information on converting your Gateway server to a

rackmount configuration and installing your Gateway server in a cabinet. The

Gateway rackmount conversion accessory kit includes:

■Gateway bezel assembly (installed on pre-configured systems)

■2 front panel side brackets

■2 pairs of Gateway mounting brackets (labeled FRONT and REAR)

■2 pairs of generic mounting brackets (short and long)

■2 28-inch (71.12 cm) cabinet slide rail assemblies

■Miscellaneous hardware

2Installation

Converting to rackmount

To convert the server to a standard 19-inch (48.26 cm) rack-mountable drawer,

you need to remove the unneeded hardware and tower bezel, then install the

new bezel and mounting hardware. If your system came configured for rack

installation, go to “Installing the system drawer side rails” on page 8.

Removing the top panel

To remove the top panel:

1Turn off system power, then disconnect the power cord and all the

peripherals.

2Make sure the server is on a stable surface, such as a table or counter.

3Unscrew the captive thumbscrew on the back access panel.

4Slide the back access panel toward the back, then pull outward to remove.

Warning In order to avoid injury or dropping the server, Gateway

recommends that two people lift the server.

4Installation

Changing the bezel

2Pull the door away from the bezel and set it aside.

3Beginning at the top left inside edge of the bezel, depress the plastic

retention tabs toward the outside edge of the bezel, and pull the bezel

out from the chassis slightly, enough to keep the tabs from snapping back

into place.

4Work your way around the bezel until all eight tabs (three left, one

bottom, two right, and two top) have been released, then pull the bezel

off the chassis.

To install the rack bezel:

1Align the rack bezel with the chassis, just as the tower bezel was aligned

prior to removal. Make sure the plastic retention tabs line up with the

appropriate slots in the chassis.

2Press the rack bezel onto the chassis until the retention tabs snap into

place.

3Align the door with the chassis, just as it was aligned prior to removal.

4Insert the hinge pins (2) into the hinge-pin sockets, allowing the door

to fall into place, then close the door.
