How to install HPE Universal G2 Rack Tie Down Kit

  • Begin by unpacking the kit and verifying all components are present: straps, brackets, screws, and any mounting hardware.
  • Position the brackets on the rack frame at the approved mounting points, aligning with standard 19-inch rack rails for consistent load distribution.
  • Attach the brackets securely using the provided hardware, ensuring they are level and square with the rack posts to prevent gear misalignment.
  • Route the tie-down straps around the equipment chassis and through the brackets, avoiding pinch points or entanglement with cables and airflow paths.
  • Tighten the straps evenly to achieve firm tension without over-compression on devices or cables; verify that no cables are kinked and that airflow remains unobstructed.
  • Test the setup by gently pulling on each installed device to confirm stable mounting; recheck strap tension and alignment after any movement or cable management changes.
  • Document installation for future maintenance, noting rack position, device location, and any unique routing requirements to facilitate quick servicing later.
