Equipment Rack Installation Procedure
To mount the IntraCore 8000 in an equipment rack:

Place the IntraCore 8000 on a flat, stable surface.

Locate a rack-mounting bracket (supplied) and place it 
over the mounting holes on one side of the unit.

Insert six screws (supplied) into the holes and tighten 
with a Phillips screwdriver. Do not use fewer than six 
screws for this mounting.

For the other side of the unit, repeat the two previous 
steps.

Place the unit in the equipment rack.

Secure the unit by screwing its mounting brackets to the 
equipment rack. Use a minimum of four screws for this 
purpose.

I Important!     Make sure the unit is supported until all 

the mounting screws for each bracket are secured to 
the equipment rack. Failure to do so could cause the 
unit to fall, resulting in personal injury or damage to 
the unit, or both.

Proceed to the section, “Installing Port Expansion Mod-
ules.”

The IntraCore 8000 has four rubber feet on the bottom of the case that allow 
for free-standing placement of the unit.

For free-standing/desktop placement:

Attach the four rubber pads (supplied) to the bottom of 
each corner of the IntraCore 8000 chassis.

Place the unit on a flat surface with a minimum area of 
17.1” x 13.5” (434.3 mm x 342.9 mm) and support capac-
ity of 22 lbs (10 kg).

Make sure there is enough ventilation space between the 
IntraCore 8000 and surrounding objects.
