J100 chassis in an environment compatible with the TMRA. Beware of reduced air flow Installation of the J100 chassis in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the J100 chassis is not compromised.
Ensure that proper cable grades are used for all system and network connections. For best results, use the cables and connectors recommended in this document. • Your J100 unit can become hot while operating. Always turn off your computer, unplug it, then wait for hot surfaces to cool before touching your J100 unit. •...
J100 models have ventilation holes on either side. Air is pulled in from the right side and pushed out the left side. Do not block either side. For this reason J100 models cannot be mounted on the side or set on the side on a desk or shelf.
4.2 Technical Assistance If you require technical assistance, please contact Jupiter Systems' technical support team. Please provide as much information to the support team about the fault and any steps you have taken in trying to resolve the issue.
