Select a Site for the Server
The server operates reliably within normal office environmental limits. Select a site
that meets the following criteria:
• Clean and relatively free of excess dust.
• Well-ventilated and away from sources of heat, with the ventilating openings on
the server kept free of obstructions.
• Away from sources of vibration or physical shock.
• Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields and noise caused by electrical
devices such as elevators, copy machines, air conditioners, large fans, large
electric motors, radio and TV transmitters, and high-frequency security devices.
• Access space provided so the server power cord can be unplugged from the
power supply or the wall outlet—this is the only way to remove the AC power
cord from the server.
• Clearance provided for cooling and airflow: Approximately 30 inches (76.2 cm)
in the back and 25 inches (63.5 cm) in the front.
• Located near a properly earthed, grounded, power outlet.

Set Top Applications
If you have a 300 series server you do not wish to rack mount, apply the pressure
sensitive feet (that came with the server) to the bottom corners of the unit, and then
place the unit in a location that meets server site selection criteria.
