Rack-Mount Safety Precautions

To ensure rack-mount safety, follow these guidelines:

Identifying System Connections and Controls

The system has front and rear panels. The front panel includes five lights:
Polycom, Inc.
Determine a suitable location for the equipment rack that holds the
system. The location should be a clean, dust-free, well-ventilated area
that is near a grounded power outlet. Avoid areas where heat,
electrical noise, and electromagnetic fields are generated.
Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully
extended to the floor, so that the full weight of the rack is resting on
them.
In a single-rack installation, make sure stabilizers have been attached
to the rack.
In multiple-rack installations, make sure the racks have been coupled
together.
Make sure the rack is stable before you extend a component from the
rack.
You should extend only one component at a time. If you extend two or
more components simultaneously, the rack may become unstable.
Before you install the rails, determine the placement of each
component in the rack.
Install the heaviest components on the bottom of the rack first, and
then work up.
Use a regulating, uninterruptable power supply (UPS) to protect the
system from power surges, voltage spikes, and power failures.
Allow the power supply to cool before you touch it.
To maintain proper cooling, keep the rack's front door and all panels
and components on the systems closed, except during servicing.
Power--Confirms when the system has power.
HD--Confirms that the hard drive is working.
