2.3 Pre-Installation Guidelines
Place cables away from fluorescent lights, air conditioners, and machines that are
likely to generate electrical noise.
Place the SmartRack 116 IP unit on a flat, clean and dry surface.
The SmartRack 116 IP unit is not intended for connection to exposed outdoor
lines.
Ensure that the maximum distance between each computer and the SmartRack
116 IP unit, does not exceed 10 m / 33 ft for RICCs, and 30 m/100 ft for ROCs.
2.4 Rack Mounting SmartRack 116 IP
Mounting SmartRack 116 IP into a rack can be performed by:
1. Replacing the short bracket with a long bracket, if required for greater rack depth
2. Connecting the SmartRack 116 IP console to the rack
3. Connecting the KVM Switch 116 IP
2.4.1
Rack Mounting Safety Considerations
When mounting SmartRack 116 IP onto a rack, avoid the following conditions:
Elevated operating ambient temperature
– The operating ambient temperature of
the rack environment may be greater than the room ambient temperature.
Therefore, take special care when installing the unit in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly that the environment is compatible with the maximum rated ambient
temperature.
Reduced airflow
– Install the equipment in a rack in such a way that the amount of
airflow required for safe operation is not compromised. Leave a gap of at least 5
cm / 2” on each side of SmartRack 116 IP.
Uneven mechanical loading
– Uneven loading can cause damage to the equipment
or personal injury. Mount the equipment in the rack in such a way that a
hazardous condition does not result due to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit overloading
– When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit, make
sure that the total power of all the components does not exceed the circuit
capabilities. Overloading of circuits can affect over-current protection and supply
wiring, potentially resulting in fire and shock hazards.
Unreliable earthing
– Maintain reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment. Pay
attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit
(for example, use of power strips).
