SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit - Installation Instructions

6 SAN Switch Rack Mount Kit Installation Instructions
Follow these guidelines to ensure proper air flow, and prevent component
overheating:
■ To ensure adequate cooling, install the switch with the non-port side,
which contains the air intake vents, facing the cool-air aisle.
■ Verify a minimum of 47 cubic feet/minute (79.8 cubic meters/hour) of air
flow is available to the air intake vents on the non-port side of the switch.
■ Verify that the ambient air temperature does not exceed 40° Celsius (104°
Fahrenheit) while the switch is operating.
Caution: Do not block air vents. The switch uses ambient air for cooling.
Power Requirements
The AC power source must meet these requirements:
■ Primary AC Input 100–240 VAC (switch auto-senses input voltage) 47–63 Hz
■ Correctly wired primary outlet, with circuit protected by a circuit breaker and
grounded in accordance with local electrical codes
■ Adequate supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size, as specified by the
electrical rating on the switch nameplate
■ Voltage capability of 85–264 VAC
■ Input voltage frequency of 47–63 Hz
■ Power capability of 75 W maximum
Rack Mount Checklist
Verify that the rack and the area around the rack meets the following
requirements:
■ The cabinet must be a standard EIA cabinet.
■ Plan a cabinet space that is 1.5 rack units high (2.6 inches; 6.7 cm), 19 inches
(48.3 cm) wide, and at least 23 inches (68.6 cm) deep.
■ Ground all equipment in the cabinet through a reliable branch circuit
connection, and maintain ground at all times. Do not rely on a secondary
connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip.
