Receiving and racking the hardware
The chassis and security blade hardware are manufactured by Dell. All blades are accessible through a web-based integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC).
Unloading at your shipping dock
The chassis can weigh up to 400 pounds (182 kilograms) with all hardware components loaded. It is shipped with pre-installed cooling fans, 4 power supply units, 2 switches, and 1 Chassis Management Controller (CMC).
Security blades are typically shipped separately. Insert the security blades after racking the chassis.
Important: You need a loading dock to receive the chassis, or a delivery vehicle
with a lift gate. You will need 4 people to lift the chassis into the rack in your computer room.
- Unpack and rack the chassis before you insert the security blades. Save the handled cardboard lifter, if a future chassis move is likely.
- Security blades are packaged separately. Blades are imaged with the Forcepoint software you ordered.
- Some Forcepoint components are Windows-only and must be installed and run off the chassis. The installer for these components is named Forcepoint85xSetup.exe. Download the installer from the Forcepoint Downloads page.
