Before mounting the device in a rack, pay particular attention to the following factors:
• Temperature: Because the temperature within a rack assembly may be higher than the ambient
room temperature, check that the rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating
temperature range. (Refer to Facility requirements on page 20.)
• Mechanical loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a rack-mounted unit.
• Circuit overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack assembly is not overloaded.
• Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded. Particular attention should be
given to supply connections other than direct connections to the mains electricity supply.
