Rack mount configuration

The Altos G540 server is a dual-platform system that can be set up in

both tower and rack-mount configurations. A rack mount kit is

available for customers who prefer to mount the server in a system

rack. To purchase a rack mount kit, contact your local Acer

representative or order directly from http://www.acer.com/

The figure below shows the Altos G540 server in a rack-mount position.

For instructions on tower-to-rack configuration, refer to “Appendix B:

Rack mount configuration” on page 119.
