ETERNUS CS800
This unit should not be operated in ambient temperatures above 35 °C.
If the unit is integrated into an installation that draws power from an industrial
power supply network with an IEC309 connector, the power supply's fuse
protection must comply with the requirements for non-industrial power supply
networks for type A connectors.
The unit automatically adjusts itself to a mains voltage in a range of 100-240 V (50-
60 Hz). Ensure that the local mains voltage lies within these limits.
This device must only be connected to properly grounded shock-proof sockets or
insulated sockets of the rack's internal power supply with tested and approved
power cables.
Ensure that the device is connected to a grounded shock-proof socket close to the
device.
Ensure that the power sockets on the device and the grounded shock-proof
sockets are freely accessible.
The ON/OFF button or the main power switch (if present) does not isolate the
device from the mains power supply. To disconnect it completely from the mains
power supply, unplug all network power plugs from the grounded shock-proof
sockets.
Always connect the system components and the attached peripherals to the same
power circuit. Otherwise you run the risk of losing data if, for example, the
ETERNUS CS800 server unit is still running but a storage subsystem fails during
a power outage.
Data cables must be adequately shielded.
The EN 50173 and EN 50174-1/2 standards apply for LAN cabling. The minimum
requirement is the use of a category 5 screened LAN cable for 10/100 Mbit/s
Ethernet, or a category 5e cable for Gigabit Ethernet. The requirements from the
ISO/IEC 11801 specification must also be met.
Route the cables in such a way that they do not create a potential hazard (make
sure no-one can trip over them) and that they cannot be damaged.
Never connect or disconnect data transmission lines during a storm (risk of
lightning strike).
Make sure that no objects (e.g. jewelry, paper-clips etc.) or liquids can get inside
the system (risk of electric shock, short circuit).
