Operational Space
When planning the layout of the server site, use the equipment dimensions, door
swing, and service clearances listed in Dimensions and Weights on page 3-7. Because
location of the lighting fixtures and electrical outlets affects servicing operations,
consider an equipment layout that takes advantage of existing lighting and electrical
outlets.
Also consider the location and orientation of current or future air conditioning ducts and
airflow direction and eliminate any obstructions to equipment intake or exhaust air flow.
Refer to Cooling and Humidity Control on page 2-3.
Space planning should also include the possible addition of equipment or other
changes in space requirements. Depending on the current or future equipment
installed at your site, layout plans can also include provisions for:
•
Channels or fixtures used for routing data cables and power cables
•
Access to air conditioning ducts, filters, lighting, and electrical power hardware
•
Communications cables, patch panels, and switch equipment
•
Power conditioning equipment
•
Storage area or cabinets for supplies, media, and spare parts
