Connecting Kraken Server

To connect the server:

  1. Open the box, verify the contents, and visually inspect the items for any shipping damage. If necessary, contact Haivision for return instructions.

  2. Unpack the box and position the hardware on a stable work surface. Optionally, mount the device in a server rack.

    Caution

    When mounting in a server rack, refer to your rack vendor's documentation as well as the included rack mount instructions in the rail kit provided with your system. Improper rack mounting could cause serious harm to equipment and/or people near the rack. Please be sure to properly and securely mount your hardware. 

    Ensure that the final location has proper airflow. Do not block or impede airflow to the vents.

    Lors du montage dans un rack de serveurs, consultez la documentation fournie par le fabricant du rack ainsi que les instructions de montage fournies dans le kit de rails fourni avec votre système. Un montage incorrect pourrait causer des dommages importants à l'équipement et/ou aux personnes se trouvant à proximité du rack. Veillez à monter correctement et solidement votre matériel.

    Assurez-vous que l'emplacement final permette de bonne circulation d'air. Ne bloquez ou n'empêchez pas la circulation de l'air vers les ventilateurs. TBD
