ITE EQUIREMENTS
This appendix addresses the various requirements to be met when
preparing the CoreBuilder
the following elements:
Performing all necessary planning, ordering, installing, and
maintenance.
When required, contacting the appropriate facilities manager for
assistance.
Ensuring that all building and electrical code requirements (national,
state, and local) are met.
This section includes environmental and safety requirements are
applicable to the installation of the CoreBuilder 7000 family ATM switch.
For your safety and to ensure optimum performance of the system, verify
that all protective grounding requirements have been met in accordance
with the applicable national, state, and local electrical codes.
You must also verify that you have properly grounded the distribution
rack. This is normally done with a distribution rack grounding kit and a
ground conductor that is carried back to earth or to another suitable
building ground. Proper distribution rack grounding will ensure that
voltages induced into wiring by lightning or other disturbances are
directed to ground.
For the system to operate properly, the following environmental
conditions should exist:
Ambient air temperature: 0° to 40° C (32° to 104° F).
Operating humidity: 10 to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).
