Unpacking and assembly
1.1.1 Chassis packaging
The shipping box contains the following accessories :
•
Two IEC 60320 type C13 power cords or two DC power cables
•
10/100 Ethernet adapter cables
•
E1/T1 splitter cables
•
Serial port adapter
The packaging is made from material which can be recycled.
1.1.2 System location
The chassis must be installed in a restricted access location in accordance with IEC 60950-1:
2005 Clause 1.7.14.
1.1.3 Rack mounting 19 inch equipment
WARNING
The chassis weighs up to 20kg. The weight should be taken into consideration
when equipment cabinets and mounting hardware are purchased and installed.
Consult your company health & safety procedures and policies for guidance on
lifting and handling.
Care must be taken to prevent a hazardous condition due to uneven mechanical
loading.
The unit is designed to be mounted on side rails or a shelf inside a 19 inch cabinet.
The rack mount brackets at the front of the unit are designed to hold the rail or shelf
supported unit in place after installation.
If a sliding mounting is used, adequate strain relief should be provided to all cables to
prevent damage when the unit is moved.
1.1.4 Airflow and cooling
CAUTION
The chassis uses forced air-cooling internally. It is imperative that GroomerII
systems are operated with all covers fitted and that none of the ventilation
holes/slots on the front, or rear of the chassis are obstructed.
When rack mounted in a closed or multi-unit cabinet, the operating environment of
the cabinet environment may be greater than the room ambient. In this case
consideration should be given to maintaining an operating environment that does not
exceed 40 °C.
All airflow is front to rear.
