When planning your site for installing a CSG700 series appliance in a 19-inch rack, allow a minimum of 0.5 RU space
above the appliance to allow hot air to flow out of the appliance. However, itt is recommended that you allow 1 RU
space above the appliance for cooling.
When placing a CSG700 series appliance on a desk, ensure that the vents on the top of the unit are never blocked,
to allow hot air to flow out of the appliance. Covering the vents prevents heat from dissipating out of the appliance,
which will cause the chassis to overheat and then shut down.
