If you are in the USA, install the system in accordance with the U.S. National Electrical Code (NEC).
Considerations Before Installing
Consider the following items before you install equipment.
•
For equipment designed to operate in a typical Telco environment that is environmentally controlled,
choose a site that has the following characteristics:
•
Temperature-controlled and humidity-controlled, such that the maximum ambient room
temperature shall not exceed 50°C (122ºF).
•
Clean and free from airborne materials that can conduct electricity.
•
Well ventilated and away from sources of heat including direct sunlight.
•
Away from sources of vibration or physical shock.
•
Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields produced by electrical devices.
•
For equipment designed to be installed in environments that are not environmentally controlled,
such as outdoor enclosures, see the product data sheet or for environmental conditions,
temperature, and humidity.
•
Establish at least 3 inches clearance on all sides for effective ventilation. Do not obstruct the air
intake vent on the front, side, or rear ventilation grills. Locate the system away from heat sources.
