Rack Mounting

Prior to installing the device, adhere to the following installation guidelines:

• Ensure that there is adequate airflow in the rack. Restricted airflow can damage the equipment.
• Leave at least 1U of vertical space between each device installed in the rack.
• The rack width and depth should allow for proper serviceability and cable management.
• Ensure the rack is properly secured to the floor or ceiling.
• Ensure the rack is properly grounded.
• Ensure the installer is properly grounded and wearing appropriate safety equipment.
• Always load the rack from the bottom up.
• Load the heaviest devices in the rack first.
• Make sure the rack is level and stable before pulling a device out of the rack.
• Do not move racks by yourself; at least two people are recommended to move a rack.
• Cables should be easily identifiable.
