eBridge8PCRM/16PCRM - 3 -
Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due
to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment
nameplate rating should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given
to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

It is important to note that some high resolution and high frame rate cameras may demand faster headend processing abil-
ity, such as a PC graphics card to present a quality image. If the headend processing equipment is insufficient in speed, the
image may show pixelation and latency. It is advisable to pretest system if unsure. Alternatively, frame rate and resolution
may be reduced to accommodate system equipment.
