Global Console Manager Installation and User’s Guide
General guidelines
•
Refer to the rack installation documentation that accompanied the rack for specific caution
statements and procedures.
•
Elevated ambient temperature: In a closed rack assembly, the operation temperature of the rack
environment can be greater than room ambient. Use care not to exceed the rated maximum
ambient temperature of the unit.
•
Reduced air flow: Carefully install the equipment in a rack so that an adequate amount of air-
flow is maintained for safe operation of the equipment.
•
Mechanical loading: Avoid a potentially hazardous condition caused by uneven mechanical loading
by carefully mounting the equipment in the rack.
•
Circuit overloading: Consider the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the
effect that overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Observe equipment nameplate ratings for maximum current.
•
Reliable earthing: Maintain reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular atten-
tion to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, use
of power strips).
Installing the appliance vertically in the side of a rack
To install the appliance vertically, complete the following steps:
1.
Remove the screws that are on each side of the appliance.
2.
Line up the small holes of the L-shaped brackets with the screw holes in the appliance.
3.
With a Phillips screwdriver, fasten the mounting brackets to the appliance using two 8/32-inch
x 1/2-inch pan-head screws on each side.
4.
Mount the appliance assembly to the rack by matching the long slots on each bracket to a set of
holes on the rack. Next, insert a combination hex-head screw through the slots in the bracket
and the holes in the rack. Cap the screw with a hex serrated flange nut and tighten.
The mounting holes on the upper and lower side braces in a rack side compartment must be
between 50.8-cm (20.0-in.) and 57.3-cm (22.6-in.) apart. If the rack has movable side braces,
refer to the rack documentation for information about relocating side braces if they are not
already spaced for this installation.
