RackSwitch G8264T: Installation Guide
DANGER
Observe the following precautions when working on or around your IT rack
system:
• Heavy equipment—personal injury or equipment damage might result if
mishandled.
• Always lower the leveling pads on the rack cabinet.
• Always install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet.
• To avoid hazardous conditions due to uneven mechanical loading, always
install the heaviest devices in the bottom of the rack cabinet. Always
install servers and optional devices starting from the bottom of the rack
cabinet.
• Back-mounted devices are not to be used as shelves or work spaces. Do
not place objects on top of rack-mounted devices.
• Each rack cabinet might have more than one power cord. Be sure to
disconnect all power cords in the rack cabinet when directed to
disconnect power during servicing.
• Connect all devices installed in a rack cabinet to power devices installed
in the same rack cabinet. Do not plug a power cord from a device installed
in one rack cabinet into a power device installed in a different rack
cabinet.
• An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous
voltage on the metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to the
system. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the outlet is
correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.
(R001 part 1 of 2)
CAUTION:
• Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal rack ambient temperatures
will exceed the manufacturer's recommended ambient temperature for all
your rack-mounted devices.
• Do not install a unit in a rack where the air flow is compromised. Ensure that
air flow is not blocked or reduced on any side, front, or back of a unit used
for air flow through the unit.
• Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit so that overloading of the circuits does not compromise the
supply wiring or overcurrent protection. To provide the correct power
connection to a rack, refer to the rating labels located on the equipment in
the rack to determine the total power requirement of the supply circuit.
