Cisco VG410 - Site Environmental Requirements; Rack Requirements

Statement 1074—Comply with Local and National Electrical Codes
To reduce risk of electric shock or fire, installation of the equipment must comply with local and national
electrical codes.
Warning
Site Selection Guidelines
The Cisco VG410 Voice Gateway requires specific environmental operating conditions. Temperature, humidity,
altitude, and vibration can affect the performance and reliability of the router.
The installation location (room, closet, or cabinet) for the Cisco VG410 Voice Gateway should always be
well ventilated and provide adequate air circulation to ensure proper cooling. The room temperature should
be maintained between 32 to 104°F (0 to 40°C).
Site Environmental Requirements
Environmental monitoring in the router protects the system and components from damage caused by excessive
voltage and temperature conditions. To ensure normal operation and avoid unnecessary maintenance, plan
and prepare your site configuration before installation. After installation, ensure the site maintains the required
environmental characteristics.

Rack Requirements
The following information can help you plan your equipment rack configuration:
• Allow clearance around the rack for maintenance.
• Enclosed racks must have adequate ventilation. Ensure that the rack is not congested, because each device
generates heat. An enclosed rack should have louvered sides and a fan to provide cooling air. Heat
generated by equipment at the bottom of the rack can be drawn upward into the intake ports of the
equipment above it.
