Equipment Rack Considerations - Cisco NCS 4000 Series Hardware Installation

Equipment Rack Considerations

• Fan tray exhaust vents are not blocked, and airflow at the bottom of the chassis is not blocked.
When planning the site, you should think about potential expansion of the system. Consider the following:
• Equipment rack space for additional chassis
• Power and cooling requirements for additional chassis
• Cable management for routing system cables
