Electrostatic Discharge
Your system must be protected from static electricity or electrostatic discharge (ESD). Take the following
measures to ensure optimum system performance:
●
Remove materials that can cause electrostatic generation (such as synthetic resins) from the
equipment location. Check the appropriateness of floor mats and flooring.
●
Connect metal chassis, conduit, and other metals to ground using dedicated copper grounding lines.
●
Use electrostatically safe equipment. If you are working with pluggable interface modules, wear an
ESD-preventive device such as a wrist strap, and connect the metal end to a grounded equipment
rack or other source of ground.
Rack and Cabinet Specifications and Recommendations
Racks and cabinets should conform to conventional standards. In the United States, use EIA Standard
RS-310C: Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment. In countries other than the United States, use IEC
Standard 297. In addition, verify that your rack meets the basic mechanical, space, and earthquake
requirements that are described in this section.
Mechanical Recommendations for the Rack
Use equipment racks that meet the following mechanical recommendations:
●
Use an open style, 19-inch rack to facilitate easy maintenance and to provide proper ventilation.
●
Use a rack made of steel or aluminum.
●
The rack should use the universal mounting rail hole pattern that is identified in IEC Standard 297.
●
The rack should have designated earth grounding connections (typically on the base).
●
The rack must meet earthquake safety requirements equal to that of the installed system.
●
The mounting holes should be flush with the rails to accommodate the installed system.
●
The rack should support approximately 600 pounds (272 kilograms).
