Rack-mount Requirements
The following rack-mount requirements are listed below:
• Elevated
Operating Ambient — If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment might be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the
manufacturer.
• Reduced
Air Flow — Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. Do not block vents.
• Mechanical
Loading — Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit
Overloading — Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
• Reliable
earthing — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for
example, use of power strips).
