Lifting precautions
DANGER
Use safe lifting practices when moving the product.
DANGER
A fully populated Brocade SLX 9850-4 weighs approximately 137.4 kg (303 lb) and requires a hydraulic or assisted lift
to install it.
Laser precautions
DANGER
All ber-optic interfaces use Class 1 lasers.
DANGER
Laser Radiation. Do Not View Directly with Optical Instruments. Class 1M Laser Products.
DANGER
Use only optical transceivers that are qualied by Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. and comply with the FDA Class
1 radiation performance requirements dened in 21 CFR Subchapter I, and with IEC 60825 and EN60825. Optical
products that do not comply with these standards might emit light that is hazardous to the eyes.
Facility requirements
Before installing the device, be sure the following facility requirements are met.
TABLE 13 Facility requirements
Type Requirements
Device specications Ensure that the facility can accommodate system, power, and environmental specications for this device as
outlined in the Brocade SLX 9850 Router Technical Specications on page 137 .
Electrical Ensure that there are dedicated electrical branch circuits with the following characteristics:
• Protected by a circuit breaker in accordance with local electrical codes
• Supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size adequate to the electrical rating on the chassis nameplate
• Location close to the chassis and easily accessible
• Grounded outlets installed by a licensed electrician and compatible with the power cords
Thermal Ensure that the air intake and exhaust vents have a minimum of 5.1 cm (2 in.) of airspace.
Ensure that the air temperature on the air intake side is less than 40°C (104°F) during operation.
Rack Plan to install the device with the port side facing the air-intake aisle.
Ensure that the following amount of space is available in the rack:
• Brocade SLX 9850-4: 10 rack unit (RU) height x 17.22 inches (43.7 cm) width x 30 inches (76.2
cm) depth.
Ensure that the rack meets these additional requirements:
• All equipment in the rack is grounded through a reliable branch circuit connection.
• Additional weight of chassis will not exceed the rack’s weight limits
• The rack is secured to ensure stability in case of unexpected movement.
