Factor
Guidelines
Radio
To reduce or eliminate RFI from your site wiring, do the following:
frequency
Use a twisted-pair cable with a good distribution of grounding conductors.
interference
If you must exceed the recommended distances, use a high-quality twisted-pair cable with one
ground conductor for each data signal when applicable.
Electromagnetic
If your site is susceptible to problems with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), particularly from
compatibility
lightning or radio transmitters, seek expert advice.
Some of the problems caused by strong sources of electromagnetic interference (EMI) are:
Destruction of the signal drivers and receivers in the device
Electrical hazards as a result of power surges conducted over the lines into the equipment
Clearance Requirements for Airflow and Hardware Maintenance for an
ACX5000 Router
When planning the site for installing an ACX5000 router, you must allow sufficient clearance around the
installed chassis (see
Figure 26 on page
