To set up the director for the first time, you will need:
• At least two people to safely slide the director from
one surface to another.
• 1/2-inch socket wrench (to remove pallet bolts).
• #2 Phillips screwdriver.
• Pallet jack.
• Hydraulic lift or assisted lift, able to raise to a
minimum of 140 cm (55 in) with a minimum
capacity of 113 kg (250 lb).
• Power cables and serial cable (included in the
accessory kit).
• Workstation with a serial port or terminal server
port and a terminal emulator application (such as
HyperTerminal).
• Fiber optic cables and cable ties.

Verify the operating environment
• Ensure that the installation location is 14 rack units
(14U) high, 61.1 cm (24.44 in) deep, and 43.74
cm (17.22 in) wide to install the director. 1U is
equal to 4.45 cm (1.75 in).
• Plan for cable management. Manage cables by
routing them through the cable management comb.
Do n o t place the director on the floor beca use doing
so impedes cable management and routing.
• HP recommends that you install the director with
the nonport side facing the air-intake aisle. This
prevents the fan from pulling in heated exhaust air.
You can install the director facing in either direction
if serviceability and cooling requirements are met.
• Air-intake and exhaust vents must have a minimum
of 5 cm (2 in) of clearance.
• The air temperature on the air-intake side must be
less than 40ºC (104ºF) during operation.
• Dedicated electrical branch circuits must meet the
following requirements:
◦ 200–240 VAC, 47–63 Hz (nominal: 50–60
Hz) (two branch circuits)
◦ Circuit breaker protection in accordance with
local electrical codes
◦ Supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size
adequate for the electrical rating on the chassis
nameplate
◦ Grounded outlets installed by a licensed
electrician and compatible with the power cords
