Rack Mounting Guidelines
Observe the following precautions before installing the RAC6180 in a
rack:
ATTENTION: Disconnect all electrical power from the
rack before installing the RAC6180.
If installing the RAC6180 in an enclosed rack, make sure
the ambient temperature stays within 5
° to 50° C (41° to
122 ° F). Be aware of other nearby devices which may
raise the ambient temperature in the rack. Make sure
there is adequate room for air flow through the RAC6180
chassis vents.
Verify that the addition of the RAC6180 does not cause
uneven loading (instability) of the rack.
Check that the power supply limits for the rack
components will not be exceeded by the addition of the
RAC6180.
Make sure the installation of the RAC6180 maintains
proper earth grounding of the rack components. The
RAC6180 requires connection to a power source having
an earth ground (three prong outlet).
Failure to follow these warnings may result in personal
injury or damage to the rack components.
