    • Select an unpacking location with adequate surrounding space for the unloading process. You must allow for the pallet. • Choose an installation site that can accommodate the Cisco R42612 rack. To provide for future installation of a joined configuration, you should plan enough space for additional cabinets that occupy the same amount of space as the initial cabinet.

  • Page 8: Required Tools

    Prepare the Subflooring (Optional) To prepare your site for installation of the Cisco R42612 rack, you may need to reinforce the floor to support the rack when fully loaded with equipment. The following figure shows the reinforcement needed for secure anchoring of the rack.

  • Page 9: Space And Clearances

    Figure 3: Anchoring Pattern for the Cisco R42612 Rack Note It is your responsibility to fulfill local seismic safety standards.

  • Page 14: Environment Required

    Environment Required Environment Required The Cisco R42612 rack and PDUs are operable beyond the specifications of the servers or networking equipment you are likely to install in them. Refer to the user documentation of the devices you will install to determine the required environment for these devices.

  • Page 15: Grounding

    You should use dedicated power circuits (rather than sharing circuits with other heavy electrical equipment) for each PDU you install in the Cisco R42612 rack. The circuits must be rated for 30 A or 32 A, 200 to 250 VAC. The receptacles for these circuits should be within 6 feet (1.8 m) of each PDU when it is installed in the Cisco R42612 rack.

  • Page 64: Introduction

    Weight Considerations The Cisco R42612 R-Series rack is designed to support a dynamic load of up to 2700 lb of IT gear. However, other considerations may make it necessary to limit the weight below that maximum load value. For instance, while moving a fully-loaded rack across an uneven or tilted surface, tipping may be a factor that makes it necessary to reduce the weight.
