•
For equipment designed to be installed in environments that are not
environmentally controlled, such as outdoor enclosures, see the product data sheet
or for environmental conditions, temperature, and humidity.
•
Establish at least 3 inches clearance on all sides for effective ventilation. Do not
obstruct the air intake vent on the front, side, or rear ventilation grills. Locate the
system away from heat sources.
•
Make sure that your equipment is placed in an area that accommodates the power
consumption and component heat dissipation specifications.
•
Make sure that your power supplies meet the site DC power or AC power
requirements of all the network equipment.
•
Racks for Extreme Networks equipment must be permanently attached to the floor.
Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip over when the equipment is
removed for servicing.
•
Do not operate the system unless all modules, faceplates, front covers, and rear
covers are in place. Blank faceplates and cover panels are required for the following
functions:
Preventing exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the equipment

General Safety Precautions
Follow these guidelines:
•
Do not try to lift objects that you think are too heavy for you.
•
When you install equipment in a rack, load heavier devices in the lower half of the
rack first to avoid making the rack top-heavy.
•
Use only tools and equipment that are in perfect condition. Do not use equipment
with visible damage.
•
Route cables in a manner that prevents possible damage to the cables and avoids
causing accidents, such as tripping.
•
Do not place a monitor or other objects on top of the equipment. The chassis cover
is not designed to support weight.
•
To reduce the risk of fire, use only #26 AWG or larger telecommunications line cord.
Use only copper conductors.
•
Do not work on the system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of
lightning activity.
•
This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate
the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor.
