Getting started
1.1
Unpacking and assembly
1.1.1 Chassis packaging
The Prosody X box contains the following accessories:
•
One IEC 60320 type C13 power cord
•
Standard 19 inch rack locating brackets (fitted to chassis)
•
Four low profile adhesive feet (fitted to chassis, removable)
The chassis packaging is made from material which can be recycled.
1.1.2 Prosody X location
The chassis must be installed in a restricted access location in accordance with IEC
60950-1: 2005 Clause 1.7.14.
1.1.3 Rack mounting 19 inch equipment
WARNING
THE CHASSIS WEIGHS UP TO 3KG. THE WEIGHT SHOULD BE TAKEN INTO
CONSIDERATION WHEN EQUIPMENT CABINETS AND MOUNTING
HARDWARE ARE PURCHASED AND INSTALLED. CONSULT YOUR
COMPANY HEALTH & SAFETY PROCEDURES AND POLICIES FOR
GUIDANCE ON LIFTING AND HANDLING.
Care must be taken to prevent a hazardous condition due to uneven mechanical
loading.
The unit may also be located on a shelf in a 19 inch cabinet
1.1.4 Free standing
The unit is also suitable for free standing operation, in which case the standard rack
mounting brackets may be removed. In free standing installations care must be taken
to provide adequate strain relief to all cables to prevent damage to the unit if
accidentally moved.
1.1.5 Airflow and cooling
CAUTION
The chassis uses forced air-cooling internally. It is imperative that Prosody X
systems are operated with all covers fitted and that none of the ventilation
holes/slots on the front, or rear of the chassis are obstructed. Installation in a rack
should be such that the airflow required for safe operation is not compromised.
When rack mounted in a closed or multi-unit cabinet, the operating environment of
the cabinet environment may be greater than the room ambient. In this case
consideration should be given to maintaining an operating environment that does not
exceed 40 °C.
