    Leave a minimum clearance of 121.9 cm (48 in) from the back of the rack to the back of another rack or row of racks. Inspur Servers draw in cool air through the front door and expel warm air through the rear door. Therefore, the front and rear rack doors must be adequately ventilated to allow ambient room air to enter the cabinet, and the rear door must be adequately ventilated to allow the warm air to escape from the cabinet.
  • Page 26 adequate airflow (equivalent to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation). • Side—The clearance between the installed rack component and the side panels of the rack must be a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 in). 5.1.2 Temperature Requirements To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or position the system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment.

  • Page 27: Rack Warnings

    Because of the high ground-leakage currents associated with multiple servers connected to the same power source, Inspur recommends the use of a PDU that is either permanently wired to the building’s branch circuit or includes a nondetachable cord that is wired to an industrial-style plug.
