Notes:

  1. This is the option part number. The T-M-F format is for
    the US and Canada.
  2. Conforms to EIA 310 - D Standard 19in rack specification
    for a Type A cabinet with universal hole spacing.
  3. Side stabilizer brackets are included to bolt the cabinet
    to the floor. They are needed when a single, standalone cabinet
    is lightly loaded. See the installation instructions for additional
    information.
  4. Required to attach racks together to make a suite.
  5. Increased Door and Logo Depth of the PureFlex Blue
    or Triplex Front door increases the total rack depth
  6. Minimum clearance to the ceiling is 305 mm/12 in.
  7. 'Shippable loaded' means the cabinet is capable of being
    transported with equipment installed. Required packaging is
    provided. The integrator/assembler is responsible for assuring
    the stability of the shipped configuration. Rack Integration
    Services are available from IBM.
  8. Front door hinged on either side
  9. Rear door is a split door.
