Appendix A: Rack Installation
Lithium Battery Precaution
• This switch may contain a lithium battery. There is a danger of explosion if the battery is
incorrectly replaced.
• Installing the battery upside-down may reverse the polarities and cause the battery to
explode.
• Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manu-
facturer.
• Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not damage the battery in any way, a damaged battery may release hazardous materi-
als into the environment.
• Do not discard a used battery in the garbage or a public landll.
• Please comply with the regulations set up by your local hazardous waste management
agency to dispose of your used battery properly.
Rack Mounting Considerations
Ambient Operating Temperature
If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of
the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the room. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with
the manufacturer’s maximum rated ambient temperature (Tmra).
Reduced Airow
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not arise due
to uneven mechanical loading.
Mechanical Loading
Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that a hazardous condition does not arise due
to uneven mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuitry
and the e󰀨ect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection
and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should
be used when addressing this concern.
