General environmental guidelines
A VIPRION platform is an industrial network appliance, designed to be
mounted in a standard 19-inch rack. To ensure safe installation and
operation of the unit, be sure to adhere to these recommendations:
• Install the rack according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and check
the rack for stability before placing equipment in it.
• Build and position the rack so that once you install the VIPRION
platform, the power supply and the vents on both the front and back of
the unit remain unobstructed. The VIPRION platform must have
adequate ventilation around the unit at all times.
• Do not allow the air temperature in the room to exceed 104° F (40° C).
• Do not plug the unit into a branch circuit shared by more electronic
equipment than the circuit is designed to manage safely at one time.
• This product is sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). We
recommend that when you install or maintain the unit, you use proper
ESD grounding procedures and equipment.
