Precautions for rackmounting

This product is guaranteed to operate in a temperature range of 0–40°C. If only this product is being mounted in an

EIA standard rack, multiple units can be mounted without leaving space between them. If this product is being

mounted in an EIA standard rack together with other devices, heat from each device might cause the temperature

inside the rack to rise, preventing this product from operating to its full potential. To prevent heat buildup inside this

product, you must observe the following conditions when mounting it in a rack.

• If this product is mounted together with devices that tend to become hot, such as power amplifiers made by other manufactur-

ers, leave 1U or more of space between this product and other devices. Install a ventilation panel in this space or leave it open

to ensure sufficient airflow.

• Since this product takes in air at the front and exhausts it at the back, you should not rack-mount it together with devices that

take in air at the back and exhaust it at the front.

• Leave the back panel of the rack open, and keep the rack at least 10 cm away from the wall or ceiling to ensure sufficient air-

flow. If the back panel of the rack cannot be left open, attach a commercially available fan kit or other forced air exchange

device. If a fan kit is installed, closing the back panel of the rack might increase the heat dissipation effect in some cases. For

details, refer to the owner’s manual of your rack and fan kit.

Filter element and grill installation

Install the included filter elements and grills. Note that the size of the filter elements differs between left and right. The

grills are held in place magnetically, and can be easily attached.

Fit the filter elements into the brackets of the unit; then attach the grill (L) to the left side of the unit’s front panel and

attach the grill (R) to the right side of the front panel.

To prevent the grills from being lost, you can attach the grills to the ventilation openings using a cable tie or something similar.
