Reduced Air Flow
Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe 
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperatures
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack

manufacturer.
