Prepare the Installation Site

Keep the following considerations in mind as you install your unit:
• Ambient operating temperature. If the unit is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the ambient operating temperature of the rack environment might be greater
than the ambient temperature of the room. Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum rated ambient
temperature.
• Reduced airflow. Mount the equipment into a rack so that the amount of airflow required
for safe operation is not compromised.
• Mechanical loading. Mount the equipment into a rack so that a hazardous condition
does not arise due to uneven mechanical loading.
• Circuit overloading. Consider the equipment's connection to the power supply circuitry
and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent
protection and power supply wiring. Consider equipment nameplate ratings when
addressing this concern.
