Installation Precautions
Follow these precautions when installing a Foundry device.
General Precautions
WARNING: All fiber-optic interfaces use Class 1 lasers.
CAUTION: Do not install the device in an environment where the operating ambient temperature might exceed
40o C (104o F).
CAUTION: Make sure the air flow around the front, sides, and back of the device is not restricted.
CAUTION: Never leave tools inside the chassis.
Lifting Precautions
WARNING: Make sure the rack or cabinet housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from becoming
unstable or falling over.
WARNING: Do not use the handles on the power supply units to lift or carry a Foundry device.
WARNING: Mount the devices you install in a rack or cabinet as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at
the bottom and progressively place lighter devices above.
Power Precautions
CAUTION: Use a separate branch circuit for each AC power cord, which provides redundancy in case one of
the circuits fails.
12 Continue configuring the device using the CLI or the
Web management interface. You also can use
IronView Network Manager to manage the device. See
the Foundry IronView Network Management User’s
Guide for information.
