Planning Your Site
To install your equipment successfully, you should plan your site carefully. The site planning process
has three major parts:
● Meeting Site Requirements
● Evaluating and Meeting Cable Requirements
● Meeting Power Requirements
Meeting Site Requirements
Your physical installation site must meet the following requirements for a safe and successful
installation:
● Building and electrical code requirements
● Environmental, safety, and thermal requirements for the equipment you plan to install
● Distribution rack requirements
Evaluating and Meeting Cable Requirements
After examining your physical site and ensuring all environment requirements are met, evaluate and
compare your existing cable plant with the requirements of the Extreme Networks equipment to
determine if you need to install new cables (or cabling).
Meeting Power Requirements
To run your equipment safely, you must meet the specific power requirements for each power supply
unit installed in the system.
