Warning: Rack Mount Safety Instructions
When installing the chassis in a rack, implement the following safety instructions:
• Elevated Operating Temperature: If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, consideration should be
given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma) of 40°C (104°F).
• Reduced Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that
the amount of air flow required for safe operation on the equipment is not
compromised. Airflow is side to side so ensure sides are clear.
• Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that
a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits
might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing
this concern.
• Reliable Grounding: Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should be
maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other
than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips.)
To mount the device on a pre-installed shelf in the rack:
• Place the device on a pre-installed shelf in the rack. We recommend attaching the
device's integral front mounting brackets to the rack's frame to prevent it from sliding off
the shelf during cabling. Use standard 19-inch rack bolts (not provided) to fasten the front
of the device to the frame of the rack.
To install the device in a rack without shelves:
1 Position the device in a 19-inch rack and align the front and rear (refer to note below)
bracket holes to the holes (of your choosing) in the vertical tracks of the 19-inch rack.
2 Use standard 19-inch rack bolts (not provided) to fasten the brackets to the frame of the
rack.
Caution: Assembling rear brackets
If you are assembling the rear brackets, please note the following:
• The distance between the screws on each bracket is 28 mm (1.1 inches).
• To attach the brackets, use 4-40 screws with a maximal box penetration length
of 3.5 mm (0.14 inch).
