Mount Kit Description
Avoid placing the MCU in an overly congested rack or directly next to
another equipment rack. Otherwise, the heated exhaust air from other
equipment can enter the inlet air vents and cause the MCU to overheat.
The height of the chassis is 5.25 inches (13.34 cm).
Maintain a minimum clearance of 3 inches (7.62 cm) on the left and right
of the chassis for the cooling air inlet and exhaust vents.
Keep a 1U space between adjacent units and ensure that this space is not
blocked on the front and rear sides to preserve the above flow.
Keep a 2-3U space above the rack top cover and ensure that this space is
not blocked to prevent air from short circulating front-to-rear.
Allow sufficient clearance around the rack for maintenance. If the rack is
mobile, you can push it back near a wall or cabinet for normal operation
and pull it out when necessary for maintenance (installing or moving port
adapters, connecting cables, or replacing or upgrading components).
Otherwise, allow 19 inches (48.3 cm) of clearance to remove MCU Field
Replaceable Units.
To mount the MCU between two posts or rails using the rail kit, the inner
clearance (the width between the inner sides of the two posts or rails)
must be at least 17.7 inches (45 cm).
