8-4 Rack-mounting the unit

Rack-mounting the unit requires 3 U of space.
Precautions when rackmounting
This unit is rated for operation at ambient temperatures
ranging from 0 to 40 °C. If you install this unit in a poorly
ventilated rack along with other devices, the ambient
temperature inside the rack may rise, resulting in
inefficient performance. Be sure to follow the guidelines
below to prevent overheating.
• When mounting this unit in a rack with devices such
as power amplifiers that generate a significant amount
of heat, leave more than 1 U of space between this
unit and other equipment. Also, either leave the open
spaces uncovered or install appropriate ventilating
panels to minimize the possibility of heat buildup.
• To ensure sufficient airflow, leave the rear of the rack
open and position it at least 10 cm from walls or other
surfaces.
If the rear of the rack cannot be left open, install a
commercially available fan or similar ventilation product
to secure sufficient airflow. If you have installed a fan kit,
there may be cases in which closing the rear of the rack
will produce a greater cooling effect.
Refer to the rack and/or fan unit manual for details.
