Site selection

Install Dell EMC equipment in restricted access areas.

A restricted access area is one where service personnel can only gain access using a special tool, lock, key or other means of security and

access is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.

Ensure that the area where you install your S6000–ON system meets the following safety requirements:

• Near an adequate power source. Connect the system to the appropriate branch circuit protection as dened by your local electrical

codes.

• Environmental temperature between 32° to 113°F—from 0° to 45°C.

• Relative humidity that does not exceed 90 percent noncondensing.

• In a dry, clean, well-ventilated and temperature-controlled room, away from heat sources such as hot air vents or direct sunlight.

• Away from sources of severe electromagnetic noise.

• Positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, rear, and sides of the S6000–ON for proper

ventilation and access.

Cabinet placement

Install the S6000–ON only in indoor cabinets designed for use in a controlled environment.

Do not install the S6000–ON in outside plant cabinets. For cabinet placement requirements, see Site Selection.
