Before You Begin
Before You Begin
The location of the chassis, the layout of the equipment rack, and the security of
your wiring room are crucial for proper device operation.
Observe the following precautions to help prevent shutdowns, equipment failures,
and injuries:
Before installation, always check that the power supply is disconnected from
any power source.
Ensure that the room in which you operate the device has adequate air
circulation and that the room temperature does not exceed
104
°
F (40
°
C)
.
Allow 3 feet (1 meter) of clear space to the front and back of the device.
Do not place the device in an equipment rack frame that blocks the air vents on
the sides of the chassis. Ensure that enclosed racks have fans and louvered
sides.
Correct these hazardous conditions before any installation: moist or wet floors,
leaks, ungrounded or frayed power cables, or missing safety grounds.
