WARNING! To prevent bodily injury, please ensure that the rack is installed in a
structurally sound environment with a level oor and that all hardware has been
assembled securely, and checked for stability before loading equipment. When
installing equipment into the rack, start from the bottom of the rack rst and move
upwards, keeping the heaviest equipment at the bottom to avoid a situation where the
rack becomes top-heavy.
Introduction
The StarRack cabinet is a high quality, lockable, secure and dust-reduced environment
for rackmount servers and network equipment. This sturdy, space-saving unit is made
from extruded aluminum for an appealing appearance. A standard lockable smoked
plexiglass see-through front door and solid aluminum rear door provides quick
access to equipment. The internal front and rear mounting rails are completely depth
adjustable to t virtually any piece of equipment. A standard roof-mounted triple
motor AC fan unit and high-ow air lter below the rear door provide up to 300 CFM
of bottom to top air ow through the cabinet, removing the heat produced by the
enclosed equipment. In addition to the standard equipment that are options on most
other cabinets, the StarRack cabinet also has a full compliment of optional accessories
like xed shelving, storage drawers, keyboard drawers, front panel spacer plates and
slide-out shelves.

• 26x36x19 inch 15U Cabinet Equipment Rack

Installation
Although the StarRack cabinet itself comes fully assembled, you may have purchased
accessory products that require some installation and assembly.
Posts
Depending on the size of the device you are mounting or the type of mounting
brackets that are used, you may want to move the posts forward or back, or replace
the cabinets posts. To do this, simply remove the front and back posts from the xed
rails by removing the screws which secure them to the rails. Move the nuts to the
location where you would like the post to go. Align the holes on the posts with the
nuts and secure the posts to the rails.
1. For the posts you will need to insert the cage nuts, which are supplied, where you
would like the device to go. To insert the cage nut press on either side of the nut.
Insert the clamps into the hole and release the nut. Screw the device into place.
2. If your device has mounting brackets with hooks, just hook the bracket to the
position where you want your device to go.

Shelves
Determine the type of shelf to be installed, Sliding or Fixed.
Fixed
This type of shelf is secured to the front of the cabinet rails and does not move. For
short shelves simply screw the shelves into place to the front posts of the cabinet. For
deeper ones, determine the desired height that you want to install the shelf at. Slide
the nuts to the desired location so that they line up with the holes in the shelf and
fasten the shelf’s brackets with the provided screws to the front of the post.
Sliding
Determine the desired height that you want to install the shelf at. Slide the nuts to the
desired location so that they line up with the holes on the shelf’s mounting bracket.
You will want to take the slide rail apart in order to access the holes properly. To do this
open the rail and push the black lever up. Holding the level up, pull the two pieces of
the rail apart. Using the screws provided, screw to the mounting brackets to the front
and rear posts. The front of the shelf’s brackets should be t snugly against the front of
the post.

Doors
There are 2 doors on each cabinet. Both the front and rear doors are removable. To
remove them, pull down the top tab while holding the door with the other hand. The
top should fall out of place. Pull up on the bottom tab and lift door out of the frame.
The same method can be applied to the rear door.
There might be times when you would like the door to open to the other side. The
front door can be changed to open to the other side. Remove the door and turn it so
that the handle is on the other side. Insert the pegs into the holes and close the door.

Stabilizer Feet
Though each cabinet is equipped with wheels for easy movement, there may be times
when you would prefer that the cabinet not be mobile. There are two adjustable legs
on the back of the cabinet. To lower them, use a wrench and turn them until the legs
are lowered enough that the wheels are slightly o the ground.
Front Legs
There are two leveler legs on the front of the cabinet. We suggest that they be used to
ensure that the cabinet does not tip forward when a heavy drawer is pulled out. To do
this, grab the end of the legs and pull them towards you.
