IP Addressing
Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the equipment is installed in a closed
or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consider installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by
Extron.
Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical
loading does not create a hazardous condition.
Circuit overloading — When connecting the equipment to the supply circuit,
consider the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider
equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern.
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted
equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections
to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips).
