General Equipment Inspection and Inventory Recommendations
Take an inventory of all equipment with a Motorola Solutions representative to ensure that the order is
complete. Carefully inspect all equipment and accessories to verify that they are in good condition.
Promptly report any damaged or missing items to a Motorola Solutions representative.
CAUTION: Do not tamper with factory configuration settings for these devices. These settings
include software configuration, firmware release, password, and physical connections. Motorola
Solutions has configured and connected these devices to meet specific performance
requirements. Tampering with these devices may result in unpredictable system performance or
catastrophic failure.
3.3.3
General Placement and Spacing Recommendations
When placing equipment at a site, perform the following:
Place each rack on a firm, level, and stable surface, and bolt the racks together.
Use correct mounting hardware and shims to prevent rack movement.
Use strain relief when installing and positioning cables and cords to help ensure that no interruption
of service occurs.
Provide an appropriate amount of space around all components to allow for proper air flow, cooling,
and safe access to equipment.
Locate the site racks and other equipment with enough spacing to allow access for service.
NOTICE: Proper spacing of equipment is essential for ease of maintenance and safety of
personnel. Spacing requirements have been established to meet the National Fire Protection
Associations (NFPA) code, and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air
Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) standards. Adhere to any local regulations that apply to
the installation.
Locate the system in an area free of dust, smoke, and electrostatic discharge (ESD).
See the Motorola Solutions Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites manual for details
on these space requirements.
3.3.4
General Cabinet Bracing Recommendations
Use all supplied bracing hardware when installing a rack or cabinet, and secure all equipment within a
rack or cabinet.
If additional equipment is installed, see the system design document the field engineer provided, or
consult the Motorola Solutions Field Representative.
Subsystem cabinets are self-supporting structures. In areas subject to seismic activity, additional
bracing of the cabinet may be required to prevent it from tipping. However, the bracing hardware must
be locally procured. No specific procedures are provided within this manual for bracing cabinets in
active seismic areas. See the Motorola Solutions Standards and Guidelines for Communication Sites
manual for details on seismic conditions.
