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 CSG355 or CSG365 appliance in a 19-inch four-post rack using slide rails. Table 1 lists the rack

requirements.

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

secured to

building

structure

Secure the rack to floor brackets and to ceiling brackets to ensure maximum stability.

Airflow Requirements

A CSG300 series appliance uses fan-based cooling. Passive cooling occurs by airflow through the vents on the side of

the appliance.

When planning your site for installing a CSG300 series appliance, ensure that the vents on the side of the unit are never

blocked. Covering the vents prevents heat from dissipating out of the appliance, which can cause the chassis to

overheat and then shut down.
