Prepare the Site for Installation
To prepare your site for installing a CSG300 series appliance, follow the guidelines and requirements listed in this
article.
Site Preparation Guidelines
• Install the appliance in an enclosed and secure environment, and allow only authorized personnel to access the
device.
• Keep the area around the appliance free from dust and conductive material.
• Follow ESD prevention procedures to avoid any damage to the appliance.
Environmental Requirements
• Ensure that the area in which you operate the appliance has adequate air circulation so that the cooling system
functions normally. Ambient air temperature may not be sufficient to cool the chassis to acceptable operating
temperatures without adequate circulation.
• Avoid temperature extremes.
• High humidity conditions can cause moisture to penetrate into the chassis. The appliance can operate in relative
humidity of 10% to 85%, non-condensing.
Rack Requirements
You can mount a CSG300 series appliance in a 19-inch four-post rack using slide rails. Table 1 lists the rack
requirements.
Table 1: Rack Requirements for a CSG300 Series Appliance
Requirement
Guidelines
Rack type
Use a 19-inch four-post rack that has bracket holes spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.45 cm) increments,
and that has panels strong enough to support the weight of the appliance.
Rack size
Comply with the size and strength standards of a 19-inch rack. Ensure that the rack rails are spaced
wide enough to accommodate the external dimensions of the appliance chassis. Ensure that the
spacing of rails and the adjacent racks allows for proper clearance around the appliance and the
rack.
Rack firmly
Secure the rack to floor brackets and to ceiling brackets to ensure maximum stability.
