MX10004 General Site Guidelines
Ecient router operaon requires proper site planning and maintenance. It also requires proper layout
of the router, the rack or cabinet (if used) and the wiring closet.
To plan and create an acceptable operang environment for your router and prevent environmentally
caused equipment failures:
• Keep the area around the chassis free from dust and conducve material, such as metal akes.
• Follow prescribed airow guidelines to ensure that the cooling system funcons properly and that
exhaust from other equipment doesn’t blow into the intake vents of the router.
• Follow the prescribed electrostac discharge (ESD) prevenon procedures to prevent damage to the
equipment. Stac discharge can cause components to fail completely or intermiently over me.
• Install the router in a secure area so that only authorized personnel can access the router.
