  • Page 26: Temperature Requirements

    HP servers draw in cool air through the front and expel warm air through the rear. Therefore, the front and rear rack doors must be adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to allow the warm air to escape from the cabinet.
  • Page 27: Power Requirements

    Because of the high ground-leakage currents associated with multiple servers connected to the same power source, HP recommends the use of a PDU that is either permanently wired to the building’s branch circuit or includes a nondetachable cord that is wired to an industrial-style plug. NEMA locking-style plugs or those complying with IEC 60309 are considered suitable for this purpose.
  • Page 28: Identifying The Contents Of The Server Shipping Carton

    If you are installing the server into a telco rack, order the appropriate option kit at the RackSolutions.com website (http://www.racksolutions.com/hp). Follow the server-specific instructions on the website to install the rack brackets. Use the following information when connecting peripheral cables and power cords to the server.
  • Page 29 Get help to lift and stabilize the product during installation or removal, especially when the • product is not fastened to the rails.
