Precautions when rackmounting
This unit is rated for operation at ambient temperatures
ranging from 0 to 40 °C. If you install this unit in a poorly
ventilated rack along with other devices, the ambient
temperature inside the rack may rise, resulting in
inefficient performance. Be sure to follow the guidelines
below to prevent overheating.
• When mounting this unit in a rack with devices such as
power amplifiers that generate a significant amount of
heat, leave more than 1 U of space between this unit
and other equipment.
Also, either leave the open spaces uncovered or install
appropriate ventilating panels to minimize the possibility
of heat buildup.
• To ensure sufficient airflow, leave the rear of the rack
open and position it at least 10 cm from walls or other
surfaces. If the rear of the rack cannot be left open,
install a commercially available fan or similar ventilation
product to secure sufficient airflow. If you have installed
a fan kit, there may be cases in which closing the rear of
the rack will produce a greater cooling effect.
Refer to the rack and/or fan unit manual for details.
