Before you begin
When planning the placement of equipment in your equipment rack, bear in mind the
following:
• Insure adequate air flow around the chassis to provide sufficient cooling. Operating
ambient temperature will affect the amount of air circulation required to keep the
iDDR within its temperature limitations. See the Turbo iDDR User Manual for
environmental specifications.
• If the system is installed with its ventilation intakes near another system's exhaust
or in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature
inside the chassis may be greater than the room's ambient temperature. Install the
system in an environment compatible with the recommended maximum ambient
temperature.
• Ensure the rack is anchored to the floor so that it cannot tip over when the iDDR is
extended out of the rack.
• Be sure to mount the iDDR in a way that ensures even weight distribution in the
rack. Uneven mechanical loading can result in a hazardous condition. Secure all
mounting bolts when installing the chassis to the rack.
The following sections describe installing the Turbo iDDR rack-mount kit
step-by-step.
