Chapter 4 Electrical Requirements
n
Avid recommends the use of UPSs, appropriately sized for your MediaNetwork workgroup
or conditioned power in your computer room environment. This provides protection against
sudden power surges or losses that could cause you to lose files or experience data
corruption.
•
Make sure your location is away from major electrical equipment such as motors, air
conditioners, or elevators.
•
Make sure the location is not subject to electrostatic buildup.
•
Plug only your MediaNetwork hardware into the power strips. Do not plug in coffee
makers, radios, lights, or other non-Avid devices.
The following table shows the electrical specifications for all the MediaNetwork hardware.
Make sure your site meets these specifications. Some of the Ethernet switches shown are no
longer shipping.
