Mechanical Loading

Mounting of the equipment in a rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not
produced by uneven loading. This unit is not very heavy, but total rack loading must be
considered. Also, do not rest any unsupported equipment on your

Unity 4600

.

Circuit Overloading

Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and
the effect that overloading of circuits could have on overcurrent protection and supply
wiring. Ensure that the total rack or breaker power consumption does not exceed the limits
of the AC branch circuit. Appropriate consideration of equipment ratings should be used
when addressing this concern.

Reliable Earthing

Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit
(use of power strips, chassis ground lugs, etc.).

Rack
Mounting

Your

Unity 4600

is sized at a single RU and will fit an EIA-standard, 19-inch-wide equipment

rack.

1.

First install angle brackets or cross-supports capable of supporting both the unit and its
connecting cables. Screw or bolt the supports securely to the equipment rack.

2.

Place the

Unity 4600

on its supports and use four anchor screws or bolts and nuts to

secure the

Unity 4600

front brackets to the rack.

WA R N I N G

The front brackets must be secured to the rack. If front brackets are left unsecured, the unit
may shift forward and fall from the rack during installation or operation. Failure to secure the
front brackets may result in personal injury and/or damage to the equipment.

Desktop
Installation

To set up the

Unity 4600

in a desktop environment, place the

Unity 4600

on a flat surface

where it will not be subject to spills or impacts. Also route cables to the unit so that they will
not be hit or pulled causing damage to the connectors or to the unit itself. Ensure a sufficient
flow of cool air (See

Reduced Air Flow

on page 17.) so that the unit's operating ambient

temperature range is not exceeded.

WA R N I N G

Locate the

Unity 4600

and its cables to avoid impacts, spills, and pulling cables and to

ensure sufficient air flow. Failure to locate the

Unity 4600

in a proper environment may result

in damage to the equipment.
