onment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) pecified by the manufacturers.
B) 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.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to
