6-1 Preparing for Setup
Please read this section in its entirety before beginning the installation procedure.
Choosing a Setup Location
Decide on a suitable location for the rack. It should be a clean, dust-free area that is
well ventilated. Avoid areas where heat, electrical noise and electromagnetic fields
are generated. Place it near a grounded power outlet.
•
Leave at least 25 inches clearance in front of the rack to open the front door
completely.
•
Leave approximately 30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to allow
for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
•
Install in a restricted access location, such as a dedicated equipment room or
service closet.
Ambient Operating Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating tempera-
ture of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the
room. Install the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer’s
maximum rated ambient temperature (TMRA).
•
This product is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated
equipment rooms, service closets and similar environments).
Adequate Airflow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that the amount of airflow required
for safe operation is not compromised.
