Rack Mount Installation
The GCM and ACMs are mounted separately in standard 19-inch racks. The
cables will be inside the cable management system of the rack. The
components must remain secure, be clearly labeled, and be easily accessible
when using the correct tools.
Rack Mount Considerations
Be aware of the following considerations when mounting the iSTAR Ultra SE as
a Rack Mount:
Rack Mount ACM's need to located close enough so that the 3 foot USB
supplied cable can be routed and still have a proper service loop.
Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may
be greater than room ambient. Verify that 0to 49 is maintained.
Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be
such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised. Verify that 0to 49 is maintained.
Reliable Grounding - Reliable earth ground of rack-mounted equipment
should be maintained.Grounding needs to follow NEC Codes or the
applicable Local code.
To Perform a Rack Mount Installation:
1. Pick a location for the rack, while observing the “Rack Mount
Considerations” on page 7.
2. Mount the unit with either 10/32 or 12/24 hardware.
3. Connect Ethernet, as required, to the Ethernet port(s).
4. Secure the power inputs with zip-ties to maintain minimum safe distance for
electrical safety. Install in accordance with local and national regulations.
Grounding
Requirements
Grounding requirements are as follows:
Grounding needs to follow NEC Codes or the applicable Local code.
Ensure that the iSTAR Ultra SE controller is properly connected to an earth
ground at the ground studs.
Shielded wires should have the shields grounded to the chassis enclosure
as close as possible where the respective cables are entering the enclosure.
NOTE
Use a service loop when connecting the cables.
NOTE
If you are mounting the iSTAR Ultra SE in Pro Mode as a rack mount, the ACM must be
tampered with a supervised input dedicated as a tamper.
NOTE
The iSTAR Ultra SE must be installed in a UL-listed rack mount for UL compliant installations.
