Polycom RMX 2000 Hardware Guide
Installation Precautions
•
In a single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
•
In multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
•
Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component
from the rack.
•
You should extend only one component at a time - extending two or
more simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
•
Before you install the rails, determine the placement of each
component in the rack.
•
Install the heaviest components on the bottom of the rack first, and
then work up.
•
Allow the power supply units to cool before touching them.
•
Always keep the rack's trays and card's slots closed when not
servicing, to maintain proper cooling.
When handling electronic components, standard anti-static precautions must be
observed:
•
Wear a grounding strap
•
Handle cards by their edges only and do not touch their components or
connector pins
•
Keep components in anti-static bags, when not installed in the RMX2000
The following precautions should be followed with regards to installation
of the RMX 2000:
•
Use a regulating uninterruptable power supply (UPS) to protect the
RMX 2000 from power surges and voltage spikes, to keep your MCU
operating in case of a power failure.
•
Place the RMX 2000 on a hard, flat surface such as a desktop or mount
it on 19" rack.
•
The airflow of the RMX 2000 is from right to left. Be sure that the
areas in the left and right side of the system are clear for proper
ventilation.
