• Front and rear doors—If the 42U rack includes closing front and rear
doors, you must allow 5,350 sq cm (830 sq in) of holes evenly
distributed from top to bottom to permit adequate airflow (equivalent
to the required 64 percent open area for ventilation).
• Side—The clearance between the installed rack component and the
side panels of the rack must be a minimum of 7 cm (2.75 in).
Temperature requirements
To ensure continued safe and reliable equipment operation, install or position the
system in a well-ventilated, climate-controlled environment.
The maximum recommended ambient operating temperature (TMRA) for most

located must not exceed 35°C (95°F).
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of damage to the equipment
when installing third-party options:
• Do not permit optional equipment to impede airflow around the
server or to increase the internal rack temperature beyond the
maximum allowable limits.
• Do not exceed the manufacturer’s TMRA.
